- participation in electronic purchase/sale of products and/or services procedures;
- ability to change or confirm registration information at any time using an exclusive access key;

- Click on the registration link;
- Fill in/update the registration form;
- Submit the form;
- Validate the registration in GoSupply.
After the form has been validated, the supplier is successfully registered.

- Solution of unforeseen problems.
Prevention and safety
Supplier performance in terms of behaviour with regard to prevention and safety laws and procedures:
- Safety policies;
- Training and dissemination;
- Protective equipment;
- Accident rates/Incident management.
Environment
Supplier performance in environmental management:
- Environmental policies;
- Training and dissemination;
- Waste treatment and resources use (energy, water);
- Incident management.
Ethics
Behaviour of the supplier with regard to ethical issues, compliance with international laws and respect for the human rights of workers.
It consists of a structured and systematic programme of on-site audits carried out on the supplier's premises, preferably with its prior knowledge.
The EDPartners Assessment Programme enables the EDP group to know and secure its suppliers’ commitment to the themes of Corporate Sustainability through the identification of Non-Conformities (NC) and/or Improvement Opportunities (IO), as a result of the completed questionnaire.
A corrective and improvement action plan may be established for each supplier, following the completion of the ESG Assessment and depending on the result obtained.
The assessments carried out are based on the collection of evidence to verify compliance with EDP's 7 sustainability criteria:
- Strategic alignment;
- Quality;
- Environment;
- Occupational risks;
- Social;
- Human resources;
- Technical requirements.
If non-conformities are identified, representing non-compliance with legal requirements or clauses of the EDP group code of conduct, a more detailed and rigorous monitoring plan is drawn up, whose actions to be implemented must be responded to EDP within 30 days of the audit, in order to resolve the situations within a maximum period of six months. After the implementation of the action plan, a new ESG assessment may be carried out on the supplier and, whenever a supplier does not comply with its plan, it may be excluded from EDP's supply chain.
