TPx Communications recognizes that diversity benefits us all. We are currently seeking a network of suppliers, including minority-owned, women-owned, veteran-owned, disabled-owned or LGBT-owned companies.
Our goal is to maximize procurement opportunities with minority-owned, women-owned, veteran-owned, disabled-owned or LGBT-owned companies as suppliers, contractors, and subcontractors of goods and services. We will proactively seek opportunities to partner with these companies on an on-going basis. Our company will be strengthened by our commitment to these businesses.
While TPx Communications does not officially mentor women, minority and service disabled veteran-owned suppliers, we do engage with each of our vendors and suppliers, and encourage them to sign up through the California Public Utilities Commission Supplier Clearinghouse. Specifically, TPx Communications works directly with the CPUC Supplier Clearinghouse in California to identify additional vendors and suppliers to increase our partnerships with diverse vendors.
