Tier 2 Reporting Program

At LSU, we are dedicated to increasing opportunities for our vibrant community of students, faculty & staff as well as our suppliers and contractors. LSU highly encourages all of our suppliers to participate in our Tier 2 Reporting Program. We place an additional emphasis on our strategic suppliers to support a core value of Supplier Engagement initiative and LSU by attending routine supplier reviews. By securing our strategic suppliers' HUB spend reporting, we ensure their successful participation in our supplier engagement initiatives.

As a strategic supplier of LSU, we require that you support the Supplier Engagement program initiative by:

  • Actively seeking out opportunities to involve HUBs as you deliver services to LSU
  • Report your success in HUB subcontracting expenditures, whether direct or indirect, to LSU on a quarterly basis

We also encourage you to have your HUB suppliers  register with Supplier.IO

Tier 2 Reporting Periods

HUB suppliers spend, direct and indirect, is reported annually to our Board of Supervisors and President, as they share a common interest in the advancement of HUB firms, specifically those in the communities we serve. Tier 2 reporting data should be submitted to LSU no later than 30 days after the close of the quarter via the UniTier portal. For access to the UniTier portal, contact Tiffany N. Robinson at tcart12@lsu.edu.

The reporting periods are as follows:

Quarter  Date Period
Quarter 1 July 1 – September 30
Quarter 2 October 1 – December 31
Quarter 3 January 1 – March 31
Quarter 4 April 1 –June 30
