OUR FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLES OF PURCHASING

With operations in more than 130 countries, we work with numerous suppliers of goods and services worldwide. Our success as a respon- sible business hinges on every link in our value chain. It is therefore vital that our suppliers share our principles.

The purpose of this document is to lay out our Fundamental Principles of Purchasing, with which our suppliers are asked to comply. These principles, derived from our Code of Conduct, are the foundation of both our purchasing process and the long-term relationships we hope to forge with our suppliers.

We expect our employees and suppliers alike to strive for compliance with these principles. This is how we can step up our commitment to better energy.
