Welcome to PSE's Purchasing Department
PSE's residential and business customers have long depended on the company to keep them safe, warm and able to reliably serve their own customers. PSE's purchasing department is a vital link in making this happen. Another important link to the company's success is the relationships we build with our suppliers. We're always working to maintain a portfolio of suppliers able to meet our materials and services needs in the most reliable and economical manner.
Understanding how you fit in
Our Purchasing team continuously researches market trends, actively seeks and retains value-added suppliers, and provides input during PSE's supply selection process. We're interested in supply relationships that emphasize quality, timeliness and efficiency. Services must come at the highest value and lowest possible cost to the customers in our service area.
Ethics are fundamental to PSE's procurement practices. As written in the company's Business Conduct Guide: "Ethics are the foundation of how we do business at Puget Sound Energy. They are essential for trust, respect and productive working relationships. Ethics are closely linked to our corporate vision, strategies and values, which define why we are in business and where we are going."
Another of our core values is a willingness to go above and beyond in assuring reliability and exceptional service. We're seeking to work with suppliers that embrace this energy and will propel PSE to do even better as a result of our supplier relationship.
Who you are
There is tremendous value in growing a community of suppliers that understands PSE's emphasis on service and quality. If your organization shares PSE's passion for low costs, quality and customer focus, then we'd like to hear from you.
In our pursuit of the best suppliers available we recognize that some well-qualified suppliers could be overlooked if they haven't worked with PSE in the past or connected with PSE through traditional channels. Our online supplier process hopes to acquaint us with all potential candidates.
We also recognize the value of diversity. In fact, our product is most valuable when diverse talents participate in manufacturing, consulting, design and development.
Thank you for your interest in joining the PSE supplier community and for your desire to serve the needs of the residents and businesses of Western Washington.
