* In 2010 the Pitney Bowes Enterprise Procurement Department was actively engaged in the strategic transformation process implemented across the company. A component of this process was the reduction and consolidation of the supplier base, which impacted the opportunity to engage diverse suppliers. As a result, the 2010 percentage of subcontracting with diverse suppliers was 4.7%, versus 6.0% in 2009. Included in this percentage were successful contract awards to diverse businesses in the areas of staffing, janitorial services and products, courier services, security, manufacturing and logistics.*
