How do I know if I qualify as a Minority- or Women-Owned Business Enterprise? In considering a supplier's eligibility for minority- or women-owned status, PSEG accepts the National Minority Supplier Development Council's definition of a minority-owned business and the definition of a women-owned business from the State of New Jersey's New Jersey Commerce & Economic Growth Commission. Both definitions are detailed in the process section. (Back to Top)
How can my business become certified as a Minority- or Women-Owned Business Enterprise? All suppliers who wish to be classified as a minority- or women-owned supplier to PSEG, must first be certified by a recognized certification body. To support this initiative, PSEG maintains relationships with several organizations that perform the certification process, including The New York + New Jersey Minority Supplier Development Council; US Small Business Administration; State Department of Commerce and Economic Development, Division for Small, Minority and Women Businesses; as well as other agencies that perform the certification process.
The certification process begins with the completion of a certification application. You must also provide documentation of business registration or articles of incorporation, and a certified financial statement. Once the application is complete, the certification process continues with a site visit at your business location.

How do I participate in the PSEG Supplier Diversity Process? The PSEG Supplier Diversity Process is open to any Minority- or Women-Owned Business Enterprise that provides products and services purchased by PSEG. To participate, a minority- or women-owned business enterprise must be certified and registered as a supplier with the PSEG Supply Chain Management Organization. Contact the PSEG Supplier Diversity Manager noted below for information on participation or visit our Qualification Process on this site. (Back to Top)
How does PSEG choose suppliers? PSEG offers certified suppliers the opportunity to participate in a competitive bidding process. We consider a supplier's capability for consistent quality and responsive service. We especially value suppliers who can help us improve by developing innovative ways to enhance quality, minimize loss and create new ways to provide value-added, customer driven services.

Who manages the procurement process? Every supplier is asked to complete a PSEG qualification application. When the application is completed and filed, the supplier is matched with a procurement analyst to determine opportunities within the company. The procurement analyst helps to classify the supplier who is then eligible to participate in our competitive bidding process.
Although buyers of goods and services work in many different departments or locations in the company, all Minority- and Women-Owned Business Enterprise procurement is coordinated through the Supplier Diversity Manager.
