A framework for navigating conflicting regulatory requirements

Are you struggling to balance risk-based due diligence with the regulatory requirements?

This whitepaper shows how to resolve that tension by building a single, OECD-aligned due diligence system that integrates both risk prioritisation and regulation-specific obligations. You’ll gain a clear framework for aligning conflicting requirements, improving consistency across teams, and avoiding fragmented, duplicative processes, while ensuring you don’t overlook high-risk areas outside immediate regulatory scope.

By using a practical, tagging-led prioritisation model, the paper demonstrates how to assess every supplier through both a risk and regulatory lens, giving you a defensible, scalable way to decide where to act first. Whether you’re navigating CSDDD, EUDR, UFLPA or commodity-specific regulations, this approach helps you move from reactive compliance to a coherent, future-ready system.

Human Rights buyer’s guide

This buyer’s guide explains how HRRAs help companies identify their most serious risks to people, prioritise them using recognised standards such as the UNGPs and OECD guidance, and build a defensible evidence base for regulators, customers, investors and internal decision-makers.

If you want to move beyond generic risk registers, social audits and compliance checklists towards a clearer view of where human rights risks sit, why they exist and what to do about them, this guide provides practical guidance on how to do it well. We focus on outcomes over outputs: diagnosing root causes, identifying a manageable set of salient risks, mapping responsibility using the cause/contribute/directly linked framework, and building internal ownership so findings translate into practical, proportionate action.

The result? An HRRA that helps you make better decisions, not just produce another report. The guide will help you understand where to focus resources, what good practice looks like and how to approach an assessment that is proportionate to your business and useful to the people responsible for acting on its findings.

Download the buyer’s guide to understand what to look for when planning or commissioning an HRRA. And if you’re considering an assessment, reviewing your existing approach or simply want to discuss what good looks like for your business, get in touch with Kumi to talk it through.
