Certification and selection of suppliers For suppliers who collaborate with PRISA transversely, that is, with more than one business unit, or for those that provide a high volume of goods or services, it is a prerequisite that they be duly approved and certified and added to our approved supplier list. This approval process is carried out through the Electronic Procurement Platform, which can be found on the corporate website. This is the channel that manages the Group’s relationships with its collaborators, facilitates the processes of registration and certification, and carries out any subsequent monitoring and evaluation. During 2015, PRISA did business with 36,251 suppliers, of whom 3,438 are certified suppliers of the Group. Over the year 103 new suppliers were duly approved. Once a supplier has entered into the negotiation process, the final selection is based on 4 criteria: • Quality of goods / service offered. • Suitability or appropriateness of the service. • Cost of goods / service offered. • Certification of compliance with PRISA’s Sustainability Policy.
