Supplier Diversity & Partnerships
We rely on dedicated, competitive, ethical suppliers in order to produce and deliver safe and reliable electricity and gas to our millions of customers.
Why We Value Supplier Diversity
Fostering a Diverse Supply Chain is Smart Business
- A broader supplier pool encourages competition on price and quality and promotes innovation and creativity
- Hiring within our communities creates customer loyalty.
Supporting Diversity in Business is the Right Thing To Do
- It allows us to promote continued economic growth and more job opportunities in your communities.
- It supports businesses operated by people with diverse backgrounds.
People from a variety of diverse backgrounds live in the communities we serve. When we hire diverse businesses, we help these neighborhoods become vibrant and successful. When it comes to our commitment to working with partners and suppliers as diverse as the communities we serve — Dominion Energy is All In.
Progress and Performance
We annually report on our progress and performance related to diversity and inclusion practices.
"Experience has taught us that casting a wide net for potential suppliers ensures the best
outcomes."

Our Partners
Tiger Controls Grows its Business
When Neeta Singh began her career in electronic sales, little did she know that her dedication to customers would lead to the launch of her own company. In 1999, Singh decided to take a chance and founded Tiger Controls – a national provider of electrical, electronic and industrial supplies, and engineering services.
Serving His Country and Community
With a combined 36 years of energy experience, Bernie and his brother, Marlon, started BJ Inspections Inc. (BJI) — a company focused on providing inspection and managerial services to the gas, oil, and power industry.
Transforming Businesses Across the Country
Ken Ampy and Sam Young founded Astyra Corporation, knowing they wanted to give back to their community. That inspiration came from watching Sam’s father run a nonprofit in the city of Richmond, Va. Today, Astyra is a national provider of information technology staffing and consulting services.
Partnering to Create Jobs in a Rural Community
A small, Hispanic, woman-owned information technology (IT) consulting firm in Abingdon, VA, is providing employment by investing in the talents and resources that are abundant in Virginia's rural communities. Their partnership with Dominion Energy has helped make that possible.
