Throughout October, Indigenous Business Month provides an opportunity to recognise the contribution, capability and diversity of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander businesses across Australia.
As an Indigenous-led enterprise working in Indigenous procurement solutions, Murrungar understands the important role Indigenous-led and Indigenous-owned businesses play in strengthening supply chains, creating economic participation and contributing to the communities in which they operate.
For Murrungar, Indigenous Business Month also provides an opportunity to encourage organisations to consider the role procurement can play in supporting Indigenous business participation.
Meaningful Indigenous procurement is about more than recognising Indigenous businesses during October. It is about building lasting opportunities, strengthening participation and creating pathways for Indigenous businesses to contribute their expertise and capability.
Murrungar encourages organisations to learn more about Indigenous businesses, explore opportunities to engage Indigenous suppliers and consider how their procurement choices can contribute to ongoing participation and opportunity.
