Modern Slavery Risk Management
Portt Discover helps you meet your legislative compliance by providing you with the tools you need to design, assess, mitigate, and report on modern slavery.
Compliance with Modern Slavery legislation requires every business with a turnover of more than $100 million to identify and address risks in their supply chain. Portt helps you effortlessly meet your legislative compliance by providing you with the tools you need to design, assess, mitigate, and report on modern slavery.
Your organisation will receive a detailed and robust supplier assessment framework that allows you to focus on your engagement with high-risk suppliers, ensuring clear accountability from the suppliers to their obligations. With Portt, you’ll gain:
- A modern slavery risk management framework
- Detailed risk assessment and validation on all impacted suppliers
- Due diligence tools to assess operational and supply chain risk
- Strategies to mitigate and remediate identified risk
- Continual monitoring of the identified risk
- A reporting framework to enable outcome clarity
Supplier Onboarding Process
Simplify your supplier onboarding process with Portt’s bespoke series of supplier onboarding measures. Your organisation will gain absolute certainty that every supplier is joining your supply chain in a way that allows you to manage the relationship and risks effectively.
For instance, Portt Discover will send you down an onboarding process with only two or three steps for a low-risk supplier. However, a thorough, multi-party due diligence process that maps out all risks will be created to give you peace of mind for higher-risk, new suppliers.
Either way, Portt Discover provides smooth sailing for your supplier onboarding process and sets you up for a low-risk, high-value relationship with all your suppliers.
Supplier Due Diligence
Gain complete transparency of your suppliers (and their suppliers) and empower your team to create and conduct effective supplier due diligence processes.
This increased visibility gives you a heightened capacity to understand key risks, such as Modern Slavery and Human Trafficking exposure.
With Portt Discover’s innovative supplier due diligence features, you’ll be able to:
- Create supply chain overviews by linking suppliers together in chains that can be as deep or as wide as required
- Create and manage risks, issues, milestones and ongoing activities with your suppliers
- Create response plans and automatic responses for supplier risk categories and status
- Create scoring frameworks to determine supplier risk
- Flag suppliers with various watch lists and gain the ability to place them on blacklists or ‘do not engage’ lists
