Founding Cohort 2026

Turn fragmented supplier evidence into audit-ready human rights due diligence.

Join as a founding partner to reduce manual supplier review time, improve compliance readiness with explainable AI, and shape the platform around real procurement workflows.

£1,500

One-off joining commitment for accepted cohort teams, credited against the 2026 cohort rate.

Included

Platform access for the founding cohort year, alongside expert-led delivery.

4 outputs

Impact assessment, supplier review, platform workspace, report and action plan.

The problem

Supplier due diligence is still too fragmented to defend.

Teams are being asked to make supplier decisions faster while evidence, regulations and accountability sit across different systems.

Scattered evidence

Supplier documents, risk signals and audit notes live in different formats with no reliable evidence trail.

Rising pressure

CSDDD, forced-labour rules, AI governance and modern slavery obligations increase the need for explainable decisions.

Manual review time

Procurement, legal and sustainability teams spend too much time chasing documents before they can act.

What is included

Four deliverables, produced by our team.

Expert-led diligence and service delivery, with the platform workspace included for the cohort year.

01

Impact Assessment

Where your supply chain creates human-rights and forced-labour exposure, assessed against your obligations.

02

Supplier Risk Review

Source-linked risk scoring across your priority suppliers, with evidence gaps surfaced and prioritised.

03

Use of the platform

Full access to the diligence workspace for the cohort year: evidence map, dashboards and audit trail.

04

Due Diligence Report & Strategic Action Plan

A board-ready report plus a prioritised action plan: owners, controls and reporting-ready next steps.

Fee covers expertise & delivery
