APPLICATION & REGISTRATION

Who can join

As a Supplier

Any company offering goods and/or services to the global oil & gas industry may register on FPI, subject to  FPI Supplier Terms and Conditions and paying an annual registration fee.

As a Purchaser

Any company who is a bone-fide procurer of goods and/or services in the oil & gas industry may become a purchasing subscriber by accepting the and paying an annual fee.

What it Costs

Suppliers:

Standard FPI Supplier Terms & Conditions will apply. Suppliers must maintain complete and up-to-date records, or records will be deleted from the system.

Supplier Registration Fee

US$ 1,000 (annual, per record)

The Supplier Registration Fee includes the registration of one corporate record and one central support record or local record. A further Supplier Registration Fee will apply for the registration of each additional local record.

Supplier Assessment Fee

US$ 1,000 (annual, per assessment)

This will apply if you elect to complete the FPI Assessment Questionnaire (see Visibile Assessment © above). The assessment process is recommended if Suppliers wish to avoid the burden of repetitive submission of information to Purchasers. Some Purchasers may require assessments as part of the enquiry / tender process.

Supplier Onsite Verification

US$ 2,500 (plus travel expenses and time)

This is an on-site verification of your FPI Assessment performed by an FPI Assessment Engineer and noted in your record. In certain cases this may be required (and paid) by Purchasers.

Purchasers:

For the initial implementation phase of FPI an introductory purchaser subscription fee will apply:

Introductory Purchaser Subscription Fee

US$ 20,000 per annum

This fee will apply during initial population phase of the database.

Following review by the FPI industry Steering Committee, Purchaser subscription fees will be banded according to procurement spend, in line with this indicative model:

< US$50mm

Procurement spend

US$ 20,000

< US$250mm

Procurement spend

US$ 50,000

< US$1bn

Procurement spend

US$ 75,000

Discounted fees will be available for affiliated organisations and for smaller purchasing organisations.

Purchasers also pay a joining fee, which is 50% of the annual subscription fee. This covers costs associated with initial purchaser training and implementation.

Further training and implementation are charged at standard FPI Business Support rates, a copy of which is available on request.

Boundary of subscription - Regional purchasing organisations are expected to subscribe in their own right, subject to affiliate discounts. Purchasers are expected to require managing contractors to subscribe in their own right and to use the system in order that the benefits can be realised throughout the supply chain.

Standard will apply. Purchasers must undertake to eliminate duplicate information requests and to require managing contractors to apply the system.

All fees are subject to review by the FPI industry Steering Committee.
