Supply Chain Due Diligence

Your supply chain documented once, shared with whoever you choose.

SCDD brings together in one place the self-assessments, documents and improvement plans of the companies in a supply chain. Suppliers use it for free and choose who sees what; clients follow their suppliers without chasing emails and spreadsheets.

Concept

What is supply chain due diligence

Supply chain due diligence is the ongoing work through which a company finds, prevents and reduces risks to people, the environment and legality along its supply chain, down to its suppliers' suppliers.

What it is for

  • 01

    Prevent

    Spot what is wrong before an audit, an investigation or an accident, and act.

  • 02

    Prove

    Have documents in order and up to date to show clients, auditors and authorities.

  • 03

    Reduce risk

    Fewer operational, legal and reputational surprises, for yourself and for your clients.

  • 04

    Improve together

    Turn checks into a shared improvement plan, not a list of faults.

Scope

Each tier documents its own, and looks at the one below

The most serious risks are often far from whoever signs the order. SCDD doesn't ask the brand to reach every workshop on its own: each company prepares its own dossier and invites its suppliers to do the same.

  1. Tier 1

    Direct suppliers

    The lead company prepares its dossier and invites its suppliers. It sees the status, documents and expiry dates of those who share with it.

  2. Tier 2

    Subcontractors and processing

    The subcontractor fills in once and shares with all its clients. If it works with others in turn, it invites them the same way.

  3. Tier 3 and beyond

    The origins of the supply chain

    The chain grows invitation by invitation. Each company only sees the suppliers that chose to share with it, and workers' data never leaves.

Features

From the first document to the improvement plan

SCDD takes every company along the same path, whether it is an eight-person workshop or the lead company that follows it.

  1. 01

    See what applies to you

    A few questions about the company (housing, canteen, chemicals, subcontractors…) pick the items and documents that really apply to you.

    • Applicability
    • Production sites
  2. 02

    Do the self-assessment

    For each item you answer yes, partly, no or not applicable, with a note. You see the score, the band and the critical items, calculated with SCDD's own rules, because the framework doesn't define any.

    • Score
    • Band
    • Critical items
  3. 03

    Keep your documents in order

    Compliance documents, company register extract, risk assessment and everything else, with issue and expiry dates, versions and an expiry calendar. You can keep documents with personal data “available at audit”, without uploading them.

    • Expiry dates
    • Versions
    • Audit readiness
  4. 04

    Follow the improvement plan

    Every “no” and “partly” becomes an action, with an owner and a due date. You close it with a document or a note.

    • Actions
    • Owners
  5. 05

    Share with whoever you choose

    Each client sees the dossier only if you allow it, and you can withdraw it whenever you want. A log shows who opened what; for those who don't use SCDD there is the dossier as a PDF.

    • Sharing
    • Access log
    • PDF
  6. 06

    Check your production capacity

    Lines, shutdowns and orders from all your clients in one calendar: see whether an order fits before accepting it. Clients see your load only if you choose.

    • Lines
    • Orders
    • Load
  7. 07

    Build your own checklists

    For your supply chain you create the checklists you need, with documents from the shared library: suppliers reuse the ones they already have and answer for free. The first one is free.

    • Shared library
    • Versions

Coming soon On-site audits on the same checklist, with findings, photos and a corrective plan.

Positive externalities

Value spreads along the supply chain

Well-done due diligence doesn't only protect whoever asks for it: the benefits travel up and down the chain, all the way to the most distant players.

  1. 01Riskfound where it hides
  2. 02Knowledgedocumented and verifiable
  3. 03Actionplanned and measured
  4. 04Valueshared by the whole supply chain
  • People

    For workers

    Safer working conditions and rights respected, because checks reach the most distant tiers. And their data stays where it belongs.

  • Suppliers

    For suppliers

    Clear requests, made once, checks that turn into a plan to grow, more chances to work with careful clients.

  • Company

    For the company and the brand

    Fewer operational, legal and reputational risks, and answers based on documents, not promises.

  • Stakeholders

    For clients, investors and communities

    Documented answers for anyone asking how work is done in the supply chain: transparency becomes trust.

  • Environment

    For the environment and the local area

    Fewer negative impacts and good practices passed on from one company to the next.

Behind every supplier there are people. SCDD makes them visible, without exposing them.
