HP Becomes First to Release Top Suppliers List
HP publicly detailed its largest suppliers, representing more than 95 percent of HP's procurement expenditures for materials, manufacturing and assembly of HP's products worldwide. Separately, HP announced a pilot program to empower workers and advance women’s health issues among its suppliers.
The release of this list, the first by a major technology company, promotes transparency and progress in raising standards in the IT industry supply chain. This will result in positive operational changes in supplier labour, health and safety, environmental and ethics practices, and will encourage other companies to do more to advance supply chain responsibility.
The list of suppliers includes contract manufacturers, electronic manufacturing services providers, original design manufacturers, and commodity suppliers.
