Welcome to the Symantec Global Procurement Website

(Translation in Japanese)

At Symantec we consider our suppliers to be a key part of our success. Our focus is on building long-term, mutually beneficial relationships that not only improve the way we work, but add value to our business. Open dialogue, two-way communication and clear, comprehensive processes all help to reinforce good relations.

We want to work with suppliers who have the qualities and capabilities that best fit our organizational needs. In addition, we seek to work with suppliers who have quality at the heart of their operation. We encourage suppliers to adopt policies which support responsible behaviour in all their operations.

The reviewer adds: Our suppliers play a vital role in our drive towards best practice. Our careful selection process enables us to develop relationships with only those suppliers best able to demonstrate the qualities and capabilities we seek.

Our business success depends on our ability to meet the needs of our customers – efficiently, effectively and profitably. We recognise and appreciate the vital role our suppliers play in making that possible.

We believe that working in partnership with suppliers who know and understand our business builds strong relationships that benefit us all. Clear communication and understanding is the cornerstone of that partnership.

This website is designed to give you a clearer picture of Symantec, of how we work, and of what you can expect from working with us as one of our suppliers.
