Supply chain engagement is the practice of actively collaborating with suppliers, workers, and communities to improve labor conditions, environmental practices, and operational transparency. It goes beyond audits and checklists—it’s about building trust, co-creating solutions, and embedding equity into every tier of your supply network.
At Konesens Development, we define supply chain engagement as a three-part strategy:
1. Strengthen Supplier Relationships
We help companies move from transactional procurement to relational partnerships. This includes:
- Supplier onboarding and training
- Joint risk assessments
- Shared ESG goals and metrics
- Feedback loops and grievance mechanisms
2. Enhance Transparency
We support clients in mapping their supply chains, identifying hidden risks, and building systems for real-time visibility. This includes:
- Tier 1–3 supplier mapping
- Forced labor risk analysis
- Digital traceability tools
- Worker voice platforms
3. Align ESG Strategy with Global Benchmarks
We ensure your supply chain practices align with:
- UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights
- OECD Due Diligence Guidance
- ILO Conventions
- UFLPA and other regulatory frameworks
