As a valued mysupply customer, I happily commit to upholding the best business and ethical practices when it comes to procurement: 

• Fair Sourcing: I understand and will follow fair sourcing practices, giving every supplier a fair chance to compete for our business.  
• Transparent Awarding: I acknowledge the importance of transparency in awarding contracts. We will make decisions based on clear and predefined rules, ensuring no favoritism, bias, or personal relationships influence the process. All offers and awarding will be handled on the platform to ensure transparency. 

• No Maverick Buying: I recognize the pitfalls of maverick buying (going outside established procurement processes) and will avoid it. It undermines our efforts and can lead to increased costs, loss of control, and ethical concerns. 
• No Benchmarking Quotes: We believe in fair play, so we won’t use confidential or proprietary pricing information from one supplier to obtain a lower price from another. It’s not ethical and can harm our relationships with suppliers. 
• Conflict of Interest: If any personal, financial, or other interests could potentially influence our decision-making, we will disclose them and take appropriate actions to mitigate conflicts. 
• Compliance with Laws and Regulations: Our commitment extends to complying with all applicable laws, regulations, and industry standards governing procurement practices. 
• Confidentiality and Data Protection: We take data protection seriously. We will maintain the confidentiality of any sensitive information obtained during the procurement process.  

• Supplier Relationship Management: We believe in fostering healthy, long-term relationships with our suppliers. We will treat them fairly and ethically, with trust, open communication, and mutual benefit as the foundation of our partnerships. 
• Continuous Improvement: We recognize that procurement practices evolve over time, and we’re committed to staying up to date with industry best practices.  
• Reporting Ethical Concerns: If anyone suspects any unethical behavior or violations of our procurement code of conduct, we encourage them to use our designated reporting channels.  

By adopting these principles, we aim to create a positive and ethical procurement environment that benefits all parties involved.
