Supplier Management Overview

Hyosung Heavy Industries strives to establish transparent and equitable criteria for selecting partners. Our website clearly outlines the mandatory and recommended criteria for bidding participation, and anyone is free to apply for partner registration via the electronic procurement system. We also review the registrations of all new partners before allowing them to participate in the bidding for supply chain risk management. When selecting a new partner, we evaluate the partner's financial stability, sales performance, credit rating, quality and management system, among others, based on our evaluation criteria. In addition, we conduct a reevaluation of existing partners and take remedial action based on the evaluation results.
