We value sustainability throughout our supply chain.

Tellabs expects our suppliers to align their businesses with the principles in the EICC Code of Conduct. It helps protect the environment and helps ensure that employees have a safe, respectful work environment. We remain committed to strengthening a responsible and sustainable supply chain. For example, we are working to identify conflict-free sources of conflict minerals and eradicating slavery and human trafficking.

Tellabs ProPartner™ Supplier Diversity Alliance Program fosters relationships

We expect our suppliers to excel in technology, quality, responsiveness, delivery and cost. Through strategic partnerships, we can better meet customer needs.

We work with firms that reflect the diversity of our customers and their users. That's why Tellabs provides equal opportunities for certified minority, women and disabled veteran business enterprises (M/W/DVBEs).

Tellabs fosters relationships with diverse suppliers in many ways. For example, we:

  • Purchase materials and services from M/W/DVBEs. You can find our expectations, along with examples of direct and indirect spending, in the ProPartner Supplier Diversity Brochure.
  • Offer development opportunities. We partner with M/W/DVBE firms to win and manage contracts. For less experienced firms, we provide expertise to help them develop or expand their businesses.
  • Partner with Value-Added Resellers (VAR). VARs help deploy the Tellabs® 5500 Digital Cross-Connect system. Firms add value by helping customers reduce costs and customize solutions.
