Tata Power - Suppliers & Partners

Suppliers and Partners

Our value-creation process depends on a robust network of suppliers and partners. We establish mutually beneficial partnerships and foster propositions that enhance our competitive edge. The engagement we have with our suppliers and partners is vital to our achievements and we place great emphasis on nurturing these relationships.

Our Approach to Responsible Supply Chain Management (RSCM)

Responsible supply chain management is a fundamental principle embedded in our commitment to sustainability. We have implemented policies and initiatives to uphold ethical and sustainable practices across our supply chain, from sourcing to delivery. Our approach entails unwavering adherence to human rights, environmental considerations, and social standards, coupled with transparent communication with our suppliers and stakeholders.

ESG Program for Business Associates

ESG Screening for Business Associates

As an integral part of our ESG Program, we have established an ESG Framework that serves as a guiding principle for our associates and reinforces our commitment to stakeholders. To effectively identify and address material risks and impacts arising from supply chain activities, we employ ESG screening procedures for our BAs. Our ESG Framework encompasses a comprehensive approach to address supply chain-related risks. The ESG Framework incorporates screening parameters that help in identifying negative environmental, social, and governance impacts related to commodities and sector-specific attributes. It also accounts for country-specific risks, such as overreliance on a single country. Through this screening, we assess BAs' environmental practices, social and ethical responsibilities, ensuring they align with our ESG goals. Our screening criteria prioritize scores of 50% or higher, demonstrating our dedication to achieving our ESG objectives. Furthermore, we enforce a zero-tolerance policy regarding health, safety, compliance, and human rights. Mandatory ESG disclosure is required during bidding processes, and comprehensive evaluations consider technical, safety, and commercial capabilities aligned with ESG criteria. In the fiscal year 2023, we successfully screened 100% of new BAs, including suppliers and service providers. For non-fuel procurement orders exceeding INR 5 crore, they underwent ESG screening and were deemed acceptable based on our evaluation criteria.

ESG Awareness Drive

Capability Development through Tata Power Skill Development Institute

We support our BAs to foster a culture of continuous improvement through our TPSDI technical support initiatives. Our programs prioritize the holistic development of BAs, refining their productivity, safety, delivery, quality and ESG performance through a structured approach. We ensure that all our BAs are supported through this capability development program. This program enhances capabilities, fosters value, and drives operational improvements through the following categories of mandatory training programs: L-1: Basic Safety Training, L-2: Technical skill-based Training, and L-3: Overall training for supervisors. During FY-23, a total of 51,236 workforce was trained at TPSDI across all three categories.

Partners With Purpose

We collaborated with 65+ global technology companies, institutions, and funding agencies to transform India's power sector. Our partnership focuses on diverse stakeholder needs, embracing technologies such as alternate battery chemistries, microgrids, non-silicon PV, data analytics, EV charging infrastructure, and smart metering for power quality enhancements.
