CAPA remediationSupply chain social compliance
Social compliance and supply chain assurance
Supplier assessment, CAPA remediation and forced labour due diligence across India, China, Indonesia and Malaysia for EU, US and UAE buyers.
Buyers now need evidence, not certificates
Buyers in the EU, the US and the UAE need evidence that the goods they import were made without forced labour. The EU Forced Labour Regulation applies from 14 December 2027 with no company size threshold, and US customs can detain goods under UFLPA. We assess suppliers, close the corrective actions that fail audits, and build the traceability files buyers and customs authorities ask for.

Frequently asked questions
Do you perform SA8000 or amfori BSCI audits?
No. SA8000 certification comes from SAAS-accredited bodies and amfori BSCI audits from amfori-approved auditing companies. We prepare your facility, close corrective actions and make sure you are ready for them.
We failed a buyer audit. Where do we start?
Send us the audit report and your buyer deadline. Our CAPA remediation service finds the root cause of each finding, fixes it and builds the evidence packs your buyer and the follow-up auditor need.
Does the EU Forced Labour Regulation apply to suppliers outside the EU?
Yes. It prohibits products made with forced labour from being placed on or exported from the EU market, applies from 14 December 2027, has no company size threshold and covers the whole lifecycle from raw material.
What does UFLPA require importers to prove?
Goods with a Xinjiang nexus face a rebuttable presumption of forced labour at the US border. Clearing a detention needs a traceability evidence package that follows the goods back through the supply chain.
Can you run an independent grievance channel for our suppliers?
Yes. We design, launch and operate worker grievance mechanisms. Independence is easier to demonstrate to buyers when the channel is run outside the factory.
