Boeing's expectations
Boeing is looking for suppliers who:
do their homework to fully understand how their products and services can directly
benefit Boeing and the solutions we offer our customers
share our commitment to performance excellence in terms of cost, quality and
delivery
are financially healthy and who continuously are focused on improving
affordability and efficiency through Lean operations
will share their knowledge for how we can all better manage our businesses and
deliver value and solutions where our suppliers, Boeing and customers win
And even more important, we need suppliers who are looking toward the future with us,
applying what we learn together as we continue to invest in technologies that will help us
deliver the critical products and services that our customers will demand.
It takes both of us -- Boeing and our suppliers -- working together to be successful.
Our procurement practices
Boeing procurement policies govern the purchase of materials of the right quality, in the
right quantity, at the right time, at the right price and from the right sources.
All procurement actions are based on conformance with all applicable laws, regulations
and contractual obligations. All suppliers and their representatives are treated fairly and
impartially.
Each Boeing business unit determines its own requirements for procurement and selects its
own sources of supply. In some cases corporate agreements are developed to cover the
requirements of two or more divisions.
Suppliers and potential suppliers must make their contacts with Boeing through Supplier
Management. Only Supplier Management has the authority to commit to purchase
contracts for Boeing.
Our company emphasizes the importance of competitive bidding as a good business
practice. We consider ability, capacity, integrity, financial status, geographical locations,
performance, reliability, quality of product, delivery and overall customer-supplier
relations in evaluating a potential supplier before and during a purchase contract.
Boeing is committed to the use of e-enabling tools and services to share information,
exchange technology and work together better with our suppliers. Boeing is a founding
partner in Exostar, the online aerospace and defense trading exchange. All our suppliers
are encouraged to register with Exostar and join the exchange. For more information, go to
www.exostar.com.
At The Boeing Company, we realize that in today's global economy, the relationships we forge
with our suppliers are increasingly important to our success in a globally competitive and highly
technical marketplace. We continue to look for the best of industry across the world to help meet
our customers' needs.

accurate information about suppliers and their capabilities. This database allows
authorized Boeing personnel to search for suppliers whose qualifications match potential
bid opportunities.
