Eliminating corruption and bribery from our supply chains is one of AIM-PROGRESS' focus areas. A first piece of work undertaken at the beginning of the year was to benchmark member companies’ codes for business integrity elements with a view to provide guidance on wording for such requirements.
The second phase has now started, again with the support of i2a, to investigate how companies are dealing with business integrity assurance among their suppliers, i.e. how members ascertain that their suppliers meet their business integrity requirements. It is planned to finalise this deliverable for the next full AIM-PROGRESS meeting in October.
