Procurement

AIXTRON cooperates with the best and most efficient suppliers worldwide to jointly meet the high-quality standards and expectations of our customers in the semiconductor industry. We want to ensure this standard in the future as part of an open and sustainable partnership with our business partners. 

In addition to quality, price and availability, criteria such as environmental protection, social responsibility and business practices with integrity are also relevant to us when selecting suppliers. Our Code of Conduct obliges AIXTRON employees to behave honestly and fairly towards suppliers in the spirit of cooperative partnerships. At the same time, we expect our suppliers to comply with environmental and social standards as well as compliance regulations.

You are not yet an AIXTRON supplier and interested in a possible cooperation?

To establish a business relationship with AIXTRON, suppliers first go through an AIXTRON approval process. For this purpose, various information is collected and evaluated by AIXTRON. In addition to general information, this also includes approval of the AIXTRON Supplier Code of Conduct and answering questions as part of a supplier self-assessment. The necessity of concluding a non-disclosure agreement (NDA), any further written agreements, as well as the information security requirements resulting from the transaction are also examined.

As part of any ongoing business relationship, suppliers are obliged to inform AIXTRON of any changes that have a significant impact on the data collected during the qualification process.

Digitalisation with Coupa

As a technology-driven company, we are also driving the optimization and digitalization of our procurement processes. This is why we decided to use Coupa, one of the leading cloud solutions that supports the entire source-to-pay process. Our supplier onboarding process to qualify new business partners as well as maintaining the profiles of our existing suppliers is already supported by Coupa. The use of Coupa is completely free of charge for you as a supplier and gives you access to your profile and the data you provide to us at any time.
