To view the CSU's requirements on DVBE: https://csyou.calstate.edu/Policies/icsuam/Pages/Section-5000.aspx. The California State University system offers a 5% preference for certified small businesses.

Of the total campus purchases, the disadvantaged, small, and micro businesses account for 10.17% ($6,301,815), and the percentage for veteran businesses accounts for 0.55% ($338,048).
