Purchasing policy
“Building on our long-standing markets for excellence – Aerospace and Defence, Oil and Gas and Healthcare – we are continuing to expand into sectors with major technological challenges through our own brands Tame-Care, Tame-Component, Tame-Power and Tame-Test.
To support and accelerate this momentum, we have put in place a ‘Premium’ purchasing strategy. This strategy is based on a simple philosophy: to share a common ambition and objectives with our strategic suppliers.
The prerequisites for selection and retention on the supplier panel are competitiveness, quality and punctuality. To meet our short- and medium-term needs, we focus on technical, logistical and commercial innovation.
Being one of our preferred suppliers means supporting an innovative company and contributing to our future success.
So if you like a challenge, come and join our supplier panel and discover a demanding and human purchasing team.
