Safely fulfil your due diligence obligations with PwC's Managed Services
Safely fulfil your due diligence obligations under the SCDDA & CSDDD
Our Managed Services for SCDDA and CSDDD provide you with comprehensive support in complying with regulatory requirements. These include reviewing the entire supply chain for human rights and environmental violations and ensuring that companies fulfil appropriate due diligence obligations. This allows you to avoid financial risks and damage to your reputation while strengthening the trust of customers and business partners.
We systematically identify and assess risks within your business partner portfolio. This allows us to rigorously identify high-risk business partners. For our analyses, we use recognised index data at product, sector and country level and employ media analyses in various languages as well as certificate checks. We send standardised and customisable questionnaires to high-risk business partners and evaluate their responses. On request, we also validate the supporting documents provided by business partners, thereby enabling proactive risk management. To comply with reporting requirements, we create audit-proof documentation of the analysis. Thanks to the multi-client capability of the service, individual reports can be easily generated for several subsidiaries.
All packages offer detailed documentation
Detailed risk reporting is a central component of all packages. All you need to do is provide us with the necessary business partner data and you will receive a clear report within a very short time. This report contains information on high-risk business partners at a minimum, as well as a list of country and industry risks. In addition, the results of the certificate and media analysis are also included. The report can be further customised as required. Each service package builds on the previous one by offering additional services while retaining all previously included services. Good to know: Even the smallest package provides a solid foundation for effectively integrating risk management and compliance into your business processes.
Overview of the service packages
Additional challenges? No problem!
For specific challenges that go beyond the standard services, we offer additional services upon your request. For example, you can request the analysis of additional business partner data or specific queries regarding sustainability agreements.
Safely fulfil your due diligence obligations under the EUDR
With our Managed Services and service-as-a-software offerings (SaaSO) for implementing the EUDR, we offer comprehensive support in every phase of the due diligence process – from data collection and risk analysis to reporting and the preparation of due diligence statements (DDS). For both services, the technical basis is the EUDR module of our "Check Your Value Chain" software for automated risk analysis at product, transaction and business partner level.
As part of our managed services, you not only purchase the software, but we also support you in operating this – so that you can concentrate on your core business. We offer you a standardised but flexibly customisable system setup that integrates seamlessly into your existing IT infrastructure. As part of our SaaSO services, we create detailed, individually configurable reports for you in the shortest possible time. We offer comprehensive risk analyses, legality checks and reporting on your business partners, products and transaction risks.
In both services, data collection includes not only your data but also the option of sending product data requests to your suppliers for each transaction, including reminders and setting deadlines. We manage the responses and assess the EUDR compliance of your business partners. We carry out legality checks as well as macroeconomic, deforestation and media risk analyses. We use precise satellite data to validate deforestation risks, while comprehensive product analysis based on HS codes ensures complete transparency at the product level. In addition, we offer you a SaaSO service that provides media analysis of your business partners to ensure that you are always informed about the latest developments within your supply chain.
When we identify risks, we send out targeted supplier questionnaires to gather relevant information on deforestation and EUDR risk positions. We then check for possible deforestation risks and review certificates and documents for plausibility to minimise false alarms. Together with you, we determine and implement effective risk mitigation measures in line with your compliance requirements. To ensure compliance, we offer a supplier-specific legality check as an additional SaaSO service, in which the documents and evidence provided by suppliers are validated in accordance with PwC's best practice standards. Within the reporting process, we create due diligence statements. As part of our managed services, we also transmit these to the EU information system TRACES. Comprehensive documentation and a clear audit trail give you access to reliable and compliant reports at all times.
Both service options can be flexibly adapted to your wishes, time and resource-specific circumstances.
