For Cepsa Química, quality standards with respect to social, ethical and environmental responsibility represent a critical aspect, setting the guidelines in our business strategy and, therefore, in the commercial relationship with our suppliers. To guarantee this quality, we collaborate with ACHILLES South Europe, S.L. company, using its RePro supplier rating system (based on the new MyAchilles platform), which provides us useful and secure information on those collaborators with responsible practices throughout their supply chain, ensuring that we continue investing in those who are suitable for maintaining our growth in the industry.
Cepsa Química has established two levels of qualification, mainly delimited by the annual amount issued in orders or the total amount of the contract:
MEMBER+ Level in Achilles: Required for cumulative annual order amounts or total contract amounts from €50,000 to €80,000.
SILVER Level in Achilles: Required for cumulative annual order amounts or total contract amounts greater than €80,000. This level of registration in RePro will also be required for all subcontractors who provide services accessing physically to any of our work centers.
Requests for registration in Achilles (or upgrade of the supplier's current registration level) will be made through the Sm@rt Buy platform by Cepsa Química. It will be a prerequisite for the award of an order or contract to comply with the requirements of the before mentioned registration and approval levels.
