Sustainability & compliance in the supply chain – effective, risk-based, audit-ready
Requirements are increasing – from LkSG to CSDDD and CSRD/ESRS. Responsible, transparent and risk-based processes are required across the entire value chain: human rights, environmental and climate protection, complaint mechanisms, risk assessments with prioritisation, as well as effective remedial measures and reliable evidence.
CompanyCoaches makes your supply chain management future-proof: we translate regulation into pragmatic processes – from risk analysis and supplier development to contractual due diligence clauses, audit-proof documentation and reporting interfaces (CSRD/ESRS). This enables you to achieve effective compliance: legally compliant, efficient and measurable.
What you can achieve with us
We develop tailor-made sustainability strategies for you – nationally and internationally. These include:
- Risk-based SCM: (Supply Chain Management) systematic risk identification, assessment and prioritisation along Tier 1 to lower levels
- Effective measures & monitoring: prevention, remediation, supplier development, KPIs & continuous improvement
- Governance & grievance procedures: guidelines, responsibilities, grievance mechanism and escalation logic
- Audit & verifiability: consistent documentation, chains of evidence, BAFA-compliant reports and ESRS connection
- Efficient implementation: lean workflows, clear roles, on-demand expertise (e.g. external sustainability officer)
A sound risk analysis is the heart of successful supply chain management. We support you with:
- Creating a supply chain due diligence questionnaire to evaluate your suppliers
- Analysis and assessment of sustainability risks
- Development of action plans to minimize risk
The competence of your teams and suppliers determines the success of the transformation. We impart practical know-how and embed sustainability in everyday life – from ESG basics to audit fitness.
