Opportunities to Participate
Get TPG Accredited
Only the best companies in the supply chain achieve TPG accreditation. To attain accredited status, companies successfully undergo a rigorous audit to validate their compliance to industry standards and customer specifications. Accreditation is a significant achievement available to both TPG Subscribers and Suppliers in the transportation and power generation industries.
Learn moreVote on audit results
As an industry-managed program, the final decision on whether a company is awarded accreditation is made by the industry representatives who subscribe to the TPG program. Non-subscribers are not eligible to vote on audit results, because it would be anti-competitive.
Monitor supply chain
The listing of TPG accredited companies is available online in real time and can be used by Procurement to source Suppliers that have demonstrated. TPG Subscribers additionally receive alerts to help them quickly address concerns raised during a TPG audit, such as number of non-conformances or product impact issues identified.
