Due DiligenceVarious governments have implemented regulations, forcing importers to apply a Due Diligence system (DDS). The DDS are studies and investigations that are carried out on companies or people prior to making a certain decision. They are generally voluntary processes. The length and complexity of supply chains make it impossible and inaccessible for importers and companies to ensure that every business in a supply chain has been verified. A DDS system helps importers and companies identify risks from, for example, forced labor (British Modern Slavery Act) and illegal logging (EU Timber Regulations).
Thanks to our knowledge and global network, we have supported and implemented numerous DDS systems, helping our partners identify risks and implement mitigation measures that will boost their businesses.
