The Union Ministry of Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises asked central public sector enterprises to draw up plans to help meet an existing procurement target for suppliers owned by Scheduled Caste and Scheduled Tribe entrepreneurs. Thirty enterprises attended the November 5 review in New Delhi, the ministry said in a November 10 Press Information Bureau release.

The review focused on the existing 4% target for purchases from those micro and small enterprises. The ministry asked public enterprises to help suppliers register as vendors and identify where their goods or services meet buyers’ needs.
