WEBINAR: Mastering risk-based due diligence in global supply chains 

Kumi’s practitioner series 1/4 – to request the materials from the session, please fill in our form.

In global supply chains, a risk-based approach under frameworks like the OECD Guidelines or due diligence laws isn’t a compliance box-tick — it’s a practical necessity. 

A risk-based approach helps you focus time and resources where they matter most: on the suppliers, operations, and activities that pose the greatest risks to rightsholders and where your business is likely to have the most impact. 

Without this focus, companies tend to become bogged down in risk mapping and assessment exercises, leaving little capacity to engage in the critical work of risk management and remediation, where companies can have the most impact.

When applied well, a risk-based approach makes due diligence more targeted, efficient, and defensible, aligned with legal expectations and grounded in real-world impact.

James Lewry and Jean-Baptiste Collovray explored best practices across key aspects of supply chain management. In the first of this four-part practitioner series, you’ll learn how to:

  • Pinpoint what really matters – distinguish inherent vs residual risk so your time and budget go straight to the highest-impact issues.
  • Diagnose smarter, not harder – blend audits, SAQs and open-source risk data to rank suppliers objectively, without drowning them (or you) in questionnaires.
  • Turn insight into impact – deploy practical supplier-engagement tactics that move the needle on remediation and rightsholder outcomes.

 Within this webinar, you will gain valuable insights and practical knowledge to enhance your supply chain management practices. Please note that this webinar has already taken place.
