Become a Supplier

We use a prequalification process to manage our supply base and assess a company's ability to perform a service and/or provide materials/equipment.

The minimum requirements to qualify as a DTE Energy supplier include, but are not limited to...

  • Insurance
    • Five million dollars General Liability
    • Review and acceptance of applicable DTE Energy Standard Terms & Conditions
    • Insurance Certificate

  • Corporate Safety
    • Experience Modification Rate (EMR) must be a rating of one or less for the last three years

    • All work utilizing building trades performed at DTE Energy Power Plants is governed by the General President's Project Maintenance Agreement (GPPMA). For additional information, e-mail the Supplier Diversity Coordinator .

  • Risk Management
    • Two years of financials are required to determine risk & liability (i.e. audited balance sheet, income statement, annual report, etc)

Material/equipment suppliers may be exempt from this prequalification process, unless we deem a sufficient risk exists and prequalification is required.

Potential contractors of labor and services or professional services will be subject to our prequalification and approval process. This formal prequalification process includes the following:

  • Review by Supply Chain to determine the need
  • Legal, Corporate Safety and Risk Management analysis
