Supplier Diversity
"It is the policy of Atmos Energy to procure goods and services by aligning qualified vendors and suppliers with our current best-in-value
philosophy to exceed our customer and shareholder expectations. Atmos Energy strives to ascertain suppliers' support for and recognition of
diversity within their own organizations. This ensures that true diverse businesses, as well as small non-diverse businesses, are afforded an
opportunity to participate in Atmos Energy's procurement process. Atmos Energy will continue its participation in organizations, programs,
activities, and councils that aid in the development and promotion of such businesses."
- Robert W. Best, Executive Chairman, Atmos Energy Corporation
As a company, Atmos Energy values diversity within our workforce, contractors and material suppliers. We seek vendors who possess a
strong commitment to quality and value and who support the communities we serve. Through supplier diversity, we continually strive to
ensure that all small businesses are given a fair opportunity and consideration as we evaluate potential providers of goods and services.
All suppliers who wish to establish a business relationship with Atmos Energy are requested to complete
supplier registration. During this enrollment process, diverse vendors
will have an opportunity to complete a self-certification profile and submit applicable certifications from federal, state and municipal
agencies as well as national business councils or regional affiliates. It is critical for suppliers to maintain valid certification(s)
from the appropriate agency or association in order to be considered.
For assistance with the supplier registration process or if you have any questions regarding supplier diversity, please contact Atmos
