15 Sedex Supply Chain Management Process 1 Supply chain mapping Initial risk screening to identify which suppliers to prioritise (e.g. high risk / high spend) Create supplier target list 2 Supplier engagement Suppliers contacted to join Sedex platform, upload sites and grant access rights to buyers Suppliers complete a selfassessment questionnaire (SAQ) covering questions related to labour standards, health & safety, the environment and business ethics 3 Risk assessments Full supply chain risk assessment based on country; product area; site profile and SAQ Determine appropriate actions based on risk level, e.g. schedule immediate audits for high-risk suppliers, action-plans for medium-risk suppliers, biannual audits for low-risk suppliers, etc. 6 Monitoring & reporting Use dashboards and comprehensive reporting functionality to: Access real time info on you supply chain performance Use dashboards to quickly identify critical issues that require action Monitor and report on progress 5 Driving improvements Based on audit findings, suppliers upload corrective actions and evidence to the system Auditors verify completed actions to confirm issue(s) have been addressed Copyright Sedex Auditing External audits conducted at supplier s sites Audit findings discussed with supplier Supplier empowered to make corrective actions and manage issues Findings summarised and uploaded onto system by auditor

16 Supply Chain Mapping/Inherent Risk Profiling With the challenges facing retailers today in dealing with the global supply base, Sedex offers a truly holistic picture of supply chain risk and location. As a first step an overall inherent risk profile of suppliers is run. This gauges risk based upon things the company can not change. Such as location, product/sector etc. The results allow member companies to focus their efforts on suppliers or sectors of high risk brand exposure immediately Co Name Address Country Sector Product Op:onal Risk Ra:ng ABC Co 123 High Street France Manufacturing Food Processing Spend Low Sedex Beta The Mine DRC Mining Gold Unique Supply High The Farm Chocolate Rd Ivory Coast Agriculture Cocoa Spend High XYZ Co The Bazaar Tanzania Intermediary Labor Unique Med

19 The Risk Assessment A fundamental aspect of a proactive and focused approach to supply chain transparency is the construction and interpretation of supplier risk profiles. The Sedex Risk Assessment Module combines three different areas of risk scoring to provide the most accurate and robust view of global risk. It combines Inherent Risk, Company Management Risk (SAQ Answers) & historic audit. Sedex partners with Maplecroft is the world s leading global risk analytics, research and strategic forecasting company. A retailers heat map of risk A member company can, based upon it s own appetite for risk develop structured behaviors based upon a suppliers risk profile, including the timing and necessity of audit.
