Procurement & Asset Management

Penn West Exploration’s Procurement & Asset Management group is responsible for ensuring that Penn West Exploration is engaging safe, high quality vendors. We assist with pre-qualification of vendors and the publication of the internal Penn West Exploration Vendors list. We help Penn West Exploration groups establish and articulate our performance expectations and assist in the selection of vendors who meet those performance expectations. We also assist in ensuring that all departments obtain the best possible "total cost of ownership" when purchasing goods and/or services.

Penn West Exploration is committed to working with safe, competent and efficient vendors throughout our operating areas. We are dedicated to the principles of fairness and respect in dealings with all stakeholders, including vendors. We are also committed to supporting the local communities in which we operate through a variety of mechanisms including local employment, community relations and outreach, partnerships in the development of skills and competence and contracting with local vendors whenever feasible.

Core to Penn West Exploration’s commitment to Operational Excellence and partnership with our stakeholders is our focus on our social, environmental, safety and regulatory responsibility. For more information regarding procurement, asset management, and vendors, please follow the links below:

Aboriginal Relations

Penn West Exploration believes that sustainable relationships with Aboriginal communities are built on respect and trust, and we continually support understanding of Aboriginal communities and culture throughout our organization. Working together, we can develop mutually beneficial community, economic, and education opportunities in our area of operations. We recognize that competitive Aboriginal businesses enrich local and regional economies. We therefore strive to identify qualified Aboriginal people for employment in our operations, both directly and through contractors, as well as support the development and sustainability of locally-owned Aboriginal businesses in our area of operations. We encourage competitive and qualified Aboriginal businesses to participate in our operations, and provide the following documents as support to businesses to meet these standards:
