With diversity as one of our critical business initiatives, we are committed to being the leader in supplier diversity in the communities we serve.

Our policy is to proactively provide opportunities for Minority- and Women-business enterprises by mentoring, building relationships with, and buying from companies with diverse backgrounds.

To achieve success in our Supplier Diversity Program, E.ON U.S. has several goals:

• Increase the amount of business awarded to certified Minority- and Women-business enterprises.
• Support agencies and organizations that help Minority- and Women-business enterprises establish contacts and form relationships throughout the corporate community.
• Strongly encourage our primary vendors and suppliers to increase their use of minority and women business enterprises in their contracts and daily business activities.
• Identify opportunities where Minority- and Women-business enterprises may serve as second-tier suppliers to our primary contractors.

As an industry leader, we know that supplier diversity is key to sustaining our long-term success.
