For our suppliers
Plug works with suppliers who contribute to safe, reliable and future oriented energy infrastructure. In all procurements, we consider cost, quality, safety and sustainability. The following principles apply to current and future suppliers working with Plug.
Our purchasing principles
Plug invests in shore power and maritime charging infrastructure across ports and coastal communities. Some procurements may be subject to public procurement regulations. Regardless of regulatory scope, all procurement processes are guided by the following principles:
Qualified suppliers
Suppliers must document compliance with requirements related to HSE, quality management, financial stability and professional capability.
Fair competition
We apply equal treatment, transparency and traceability in all procurement processes.
Integrity and compliance
We expect zero tolerance for corruption, fraud or unethical conduct in all parts of the value chain.
Supplier qualification and dialogue
Plug may use digital procurement platforms and qualification schemes where relevant. Prequalification and documentation may be required depending on the scope and risk profile of the contract.
We encourage early dialogue with suppliers who can contribute to innovation, operational efficiency and sustainable infrastructure solutions.
Ethical standards and sustainability
All suppliers to Plug are expected to comply with Plug’s Supplier Code of Conduct, which sets out requirements related to, among other things:
- Climate and environmental responsibility, including reduction of emissions
- Health, safety and working conditions
- Human rights, equality and non-discrimination
- Zero tolerance for corruption, bribery and money laundering
- Confidentiality and protection of information
- Compliance with applicable laws, sanctions and international conventions
Suppliers are also expected to work actively to ensure that similar standards are respected throughout their own supply chains.
