2. THE NBA ALL-STAR VENDOR DIVERSITY PROGRAM Upon completion of the application process all approved vendors will be included in the Vendor Resource Guide which is produced and distributed via our web-page at www.nba.com/allstarvendordiversity. The Vendor Resource Guide is provided to all NBA staff and primary vendors responsible for All-Star procurement. The NBA also works with marketing partners and ancillary organizations to further All-Star business opportunities for our Vendor Program participants. Vendors who are approved for participation in the Vendor Resource Guide will be invited to a private local event which takes place in the fall of 2010. This “Meet the Buyer” style event provides our Vendor Program participants an opportunity to meet one-on-one with the NBA staff responsible for full-filling All-Star procurement needs. As purchasing needs for All-Star arise the Vendor Resource Guide database is the central resource for conducting bids. The bid-process is on-going through the All-Star Game. Certain bids may be conducted in the fall but the vast majority of contracts are awarded in the months of December, January and February.
