Increased Negotiating Power: With many supplier relationships, TPI can leverage competition to drive down costs, negotiate favorable clauses, and advocate for contract flexibility on behalf of their clients.
Transparency and Trust: Clients receive clear, data-backed insights and can trust that recommendations are made purely in their best interest, fostering long-term confidence and partnership.

Customized Product Structure

Conservative:
Layered percentages of a commodity purchased on a standard schedule, resulting in at a fully fixed price before the start of a contract flow date.

"I am a contractor in northeast Ohio. We regularly work with TPI , conducting site audits and performing LED retrofits for TPI customers. The team at TPI and especially Justine Menn really are top notch. Justine’s attention to detail with respect to specifying material for jobs and support for our technicians while on site enables the success of our joint projects. We are treated with respect and Justine’s attitude enables a team working environment characterized by equal business stature. That is not always the case working with energy services companies/consultants in the LED retrofit space."
