Regulations increasingly mandate supply chain due diligence, with increased scrutiny on human rights risks beyond first tier suppliers. We help clients proactively manage potential and actual adverse human rights impacts throughout their supply chain and develop approaches to engage with high-risk suppliers globally.

Our approach ensures that a business has a due diligence policy and practices based on international best practices and guiding principles (OECD, UNGPs) and implements these in their supply chains. We then enable businesses to understand how they will enact and embed the diligence.
