Partners
We work with three kinds of partner: suppliers, technical collaborators and market partners. Each one helps us build, integrate or bring Software-Defined Electricity to the right application.
Three ways to work with us
Choose the path that matches the work.
Supply, technical collaboration and market development are three different conversations. Each path below has its own resources, contacts and next step.
Vendors
Procurement documents, supplier requirements, and the vendor application.

Questions & Answers
“Great things in business are never done by one person.”
Steve Jobs
Why have I not received a response?
We review each submission for fit, relevance and the right internal contact. Some proposals need input from more than one team, so response times vary. A delayed reply does not mean we rejected the proposal.
What can I do to improve my chances of receiving a response?
Make the request specific and easy to assess. Name the organization, the sender’s role and experience, the market, the intended partner path and the problem to solve. Say why 3DFS is a fit. Add evidence or links. End with one clear next step.
Which partner path should I choose?
Choose Vendors if the organization supplies 3DFS. Choose Labs for research, engineering, integration or joint development. Choose SDE Ambassadors for market development and customer introductions. If a proposal overlaps two paths, choose the closer one and explain the overlap.
What happens after I submit?
If the proposal fits a current need, we may ask for more information or make an introduction to the right team. A proposal starts a conversation. It does not create a partnership or promise acceptance.
What if my proposal fits none of the three paths?
Choose the closest path. Use the message field to describe the work in plain terms. Say what the work needs from 3DFS and what the partner would bring to it.
