Reduce Risk

There are plenty of horror stories around where excellent companies have been caught out by non-compliant product suppliers, e.g. lead paint in children’s toys, poisonous baby milk in Japan and many others. 

• Can you track hazardous substances in your suppliers’ products and recall products within hours?

Also, did you know your company is responsible for safe working practices of your contracts when they are on site.

• Can you report, on a daily basis, whether your supplier’s insurance, public liability, product liability, workers compensation, etc has expired, or is about to expire?

Finally, like many companies, you may have hundreds if not thousands of contracts, all with some level of risk exposure.

• Can you quickly and easily quantify your total cumulative contract risk exposure?
• Can you quickly analyse the possible risk if you discover a contractor or supplier is non-compliant, i.e. which contracts might be affected?

Most companies we talk to fall into two camps.  Some are unaware of their legal obligations; others say that it’s far too difficult and time consuming.  Some companies are trying their best to manage this risk but are using time consuming tool to chase suppliers and log the results on excel.
