Supplier Diversity

Schneider Electric relies on the partnerships with our suppliers to deliver the highest quality goods and services. We believe that supplier diversity brings strength to our supply chain management and enhances the economic growth for all communities. The Schneider Electric Supplier Diversity Program reflects our organization’s culture and customers where we live and work.

Schneider Electric Diversity and Inclusion

In harmony with our Schneider Electric Diversity and Inclusion policy, our Supplier Diversity program strives to identify, include and engage qualified diverse suppliers to support our goals and provide a level of excellence to all stakeholders.

What makes us really different? We believe in people. We believe in partnerships and growing our business together. We believe that sustainability is at the core of strategy: environment, ethics, social responsibility, and community engagement are at the top of our agenda.

Schneider Electric is committed to quality, service and innovation. Our Supplier Diversity Program is designed to build business relationships with integrity. We are committed to diversity and will do business with the "best" regardless of ethnic, racial or social, gender, disabled persons, and veteran background.

Schneider Electric is in constant pursuit of qualified businesses that are certified as one (or more) of the following business classifications (listed below) and provide quality products and services at competitive prices.

Diverse suppliers guidelines can be referenced by visiting the Small Business Administration website.

The Schneider Electric Supplier Database is used as a reference system by the purchasing department to identify potential diverse suppliers.   

Perspective suppliers will be required to successfully complete the Schneider Electric internal Supplier Auditing process. Our Supplier Development team reviews all suppliers in the areas of supplier diversity validation: diversity spend, financial status indicators, operational product performance and service capabilities and, if applicable, verifying your business’ diversity and/or small business status. Perspective suppliers must agree to and operate under Schneider Electric’s recognized guidelines including but not limited to:

           • Sustainability 
           • ISO 26000 - Social Responsibility - ISO

Our Supplier Diversity Program is designed to build business relationships with integrity. We are committed to diversity and will do business with the "best" regardless of ethnic, racial or social, gender, disabled persons, and veteran background.

Schneider Electric understands corporate and ethical business responsibilities include investing in the communities it serves to enhance their economic, environmental, and social well-being. Just as Schneider Electric's global operations strive to contribute to the quality of life in its host communities, our company's long-term success depends on community support and partner suppliers for its operations, products, and services.
