Services - Temporary Employment

The University of California has adopted the Small Business First Program changing procurement by an intentional effort to increase equitable contracting and procurement opportunities with certified Small Businesses (SBs), and Disabled Veteran Business Enterprises (DVBEs) that have been challenged as a result of the pandemic. It is a strategic push forward from each UC campus to support California's small businesses, rebuild communities, and reach the 25% SBDO goals.

UC San Diego’s collective commitment through the launch of this program is intended to leverage our purchasing power by creating more performance opportunities keeping small businesses open, where they can operate, and thrive. You have the power to create jobs, change lives, and bring hope when considering sourcing locally from certified businesses.

Unfortunately, we do not currently have any agreements in place with Small & Diverse Businesses for this commodity. Please use an existing supplier using the Agreement Suppliers drop-down below, OR click here for more information on how to register a new supplier.

Competitive bids are not needed for contracts previously established through the strategic sourcing process, since the competitive bid requirement has already been satisfied. UC San Diego encourages its community to take advantage of strategically sourced contracts. Departments may make purchases under these contracts even if the value of the purchase exceeds $100,000.

The following are UC San Diego and UC Systemwide Agreement suppliers for temporary employment services that have negotiated pricing with the university:
