An Affordable Modern Slavery Assessment Tool for Every Company.
iPRO's Modern Slavery Assessment is designed to assess organisations and third party suppliers for modern slavery risks including: geography, downstream supply chain management, labour policies, employment practices and more.
Risk insights reporting categorises your suppliers by risk level, and gives you an action plan to assist with risk mitigation efforts. This provides direct input for your annual Modern Slavery Statement for Australia and the UK, or your Annual Report for the Canadian Supply Chains Act.
From supplier assessment to your draft Modern Slavery Statement, MSART brings every step of your modern slavery program into one platform.
Our aim is to make supply chain transparency simple and affordable for every company. Our tool is cost-effective for assessing supply chains of all sizes.
World Leading Framework for
Modern Slavery Due Diligence.
Assess all your suppliers. iPRO engages every supplier directly through our self-assessment questionnaire, fills any gaps with our Inherent Risk Scan, and turns it into detailed reporting and a draft Modern Slavery Statement, all built on world-leading expertise.
Built with the world’s leading experts. The MSART self-assessment questionnaire was developed with the worlds only globally available and trusted open source slavery & trafficking risk framework from the world's leading human rights and supply chain due diligence experts behind the Social Responsibility Alliance (SRA).
Enhanced by iPRO. We’ve built on the framework with improved internationalisation, regular updates and further enhancements, so your assessment stays current as laws and expectations change around the world.
The iPRO Methodology
SAQ first. Then fill the gaps.
We start where the most accurate information comes from: your suppliers.
-
Engage every supplier. All your suppliers are invited to complete the self-assessment questionnaire (SAQ), so you get first-hand information about the controls they actually have in place. Suppliers who have already completed an assessment on iPRO simply share their responses with you.
-
Fill the gaps. Our Inherent Risk Scan provides risk indicators for any supplier who doesn’t respond, using data you already hold, so every supplier is covered.
-
See beyond Tier 1. Tier scanning maps the likely shape of your supply chain up to 11 tiers deep, showing where high-risk sectors, goods and geographies are likely to sit.
Starting with your suppliers, instead of modelled data, gives you a more accurate picture and the evidence of direct engagement that regulators increasingly expect.
Managed by iPRO, or by your team
iPRO can run your assessment campaigns end to end, onboarding suppliers and following up responses. Or your team can run them in-house with step-by-step guidance.
High supplier participation
Our best-practice process drives strong SAQ completion rates. We make it easy for suppliers to engage with you on the topic of modern slavery.
Easier for suppliers
The SAQ is free for suppliers to complete. They only need to do it once, then they can share their assessment with other iPRO clients and update it each year without starting from scratch.
Unlimited supplier assessments
Assess all of your suppliers without traditional 'per-supplier' or 'supplier band' assessment fees. We don't do that.
Ask what matters to you
Add your own custom questions to the SAQ alongside our pre-set modern slavery risk questions. Your suppliers still complete one questionnaire through the same process.
