Working
with suppliers
Currently
dealing with over 2,500 suppliers, we operate a supplier
selection policy that considers the quality, delivery and
warranty elements of proposals as well as cost. We set service
level agreements with our key suppliers, managing performance
against agreed standards to ensure we get good service for
our customers and operating divisions.
We operate
within the spirit of our supplier contracts and strive to
conduct our business in a way that promotes long-term relationships.
We will
reject any attempt at improper business practice, and our
staff will not use their authority for personal gain. Staff
may accept token business gifts only and will not accept
hospitality that could lead to them being perceived to favour
any supplier.
