New Suppliers

At CP, we're always looking for innovative proposals for new products or services. Initial contact should be made through our centralized departmental contact.

The suitability of a new supplier, product or service for CP is assessed according to the following criteria:

  • Quality and service enhancements 
  • Improved dependability
  • Capacity constraints with current suppliers and need for alternate suppliers
  • Cost advantages
  • Technological improvements in service and performance
  • Improved competition
  • Record of supplier

Each service or product will be evaluated on an individual basis where applicable, and suppliers must satisfy CP's Supplier Quality Certification Standard before being certified as an approved vendor. Certification does not automatically guarantee approval from CP for a specific service or product. For more information on standards and technical certification, contact the relevant sourcing manager or engineers in the contact list.

The satisfaction of our suppliers is very important to us, and the early identification of potential problems and open discussion is encouraged to minimize disruptions or losses to either party. The ability of our suppliers to give and maintain low prices consistent with quality and service is also integral to the CP supplier selection process.
