Offering free and fair opportunities to compete for contracts is how we aim to engage a diverse supply chain.
To encourage a diverse supply chain we ensure our processes are transparent and straightforward without needless barriers.
This means:
- using Jaggaer, a free, public access onboarding programme to extend potential reach
- simplifying the onboarding process to support smaller suppliers
- minimizing the burden of supplier requirements wherever possible
- attending supplier events to broaden our reach.
Due to legal restrictions, our approach does not mean guaranteeing work to certain groups of suppliers.
