Defense contractor Rockwell Collins uses a diverse supply chain to find innovative business solutions. Amber Janey, senior project manager for supplier diversity, and Evette Creighton, diversity program manager, discuss at DiversityInc’s Innovation Fest! their supplier-diversity results and, specifically, how one small, woman-owned business came up with a creative solution to a technical problem. Rockwell Collins is No. 43 on the 2012 DiversityInc Top 50, and CEO Clay Jones plays a key role in the company's diversity progress.
