There are two challenging hurdles that all suppliers must clear before they can become a Sony partner.
The first hurdle represents fundamental requirements suppliers have to meet. Suppliers must have sound financial status, comply strictly with laws, regulations and social standards, have an active environmental management program as part of their operations, and have the advanced technology needed to contribute to Sony's products. Sony believes these requirements are essential for generating value for the future.
Companies that fulfill the above conditions can proceed to the next hurdle: stable and optimal eQCDS+E. This hurdle is designed to help Sony select only the highest-grade suppliers. Crucially, companies must also demonstrate management policies and activities designed to realize future competitiveness, not just evidence of a past or current competitive edge. |

· "e" e-commerce ready
· "Q" ability to continuously supply items that consistently meet quality standards
· "C" ability to supply items that are cost competitive
· "D" ability to deliver items on time and in the required quantities
· "S" ability to meet expectations for the provision of a broad range of services
· "E" Initiatives to reduce the environmental impact of items supplied to protect the global environment: an ability to demonstrate Environmental Quality. |
