"Supplier evaluation
Apart from requesting suppliers to meet our standards, we investigate their background and history of performance. We accept only suppliers that can fulfill performance as scheduled to ensure Taiwan’s energy safety.
New suppliers: Submit documents for review to ensure compliance with our requirements and standards.
Existing suppliers: Review at least once a year. Suppliers violating our regulations will be removed from the qualified supplier list, and suppliers with higher transaction risk will be listed into the tender suspension list." p. 154
