As Executive Director of Global Supplier Diversity & Sustainability at BMS, Rondu is deeply involved with key organizations geared towards supplier diversity and has forged strong partnerships with over 25 international and national advocacy groups for small and diverse businesses. Additionally, he played a huge role in BMS’ COVID-19 response efforts. To support small/diverse suppliers and vendors impacted by COVID-19, Rondu and the BMS Procurement Team came up with the Supplier Liquidity Program, which allowed them to initiate several levers to expedite payments to small/diverse businesses to assist with cash flow issues caused by the pandemic.
