Shares his views about their experience as metal suppliers for the GTA project in Dakar.
We believe in the potential of the local suppliers in Mauritania and Senegal, and we are excited to work together with them to achieve our goals.
As part of bp’s commitment to local content, we encourage local participation in the supply chain and look to support local suppliers on their journey into the industry.
We encourage in-country based suppliers, to let us know about their services via an online portal Supplier registration portal where they can register their interest and engagement opportunities with our procurement team to discuss training and upcoming opportunities.
These include supplier engagement programmes, supplier capability and capacity building initiatives, and monitoring and reporting of local content data.
