My company already has a procurement and/or CSR policy. Can SmartSource help us?
Yes, in fact the first step in nearly every SmartSource partnership is to review and evaluate existing procurement policies and practices. Beyond policy development and review, Rainforest Alliance analyzes existing supply chains and identifies current risks and opportunities, suggests strategies to mitigate the risks and capitalize on the strategies, provides on-the-ground technical support to achieve partnership goals, and can provide independent, third-party verification of progress. Concurrent with these, Rainforest Alliance helps develop partner capabilities through specialized procurement policy and supply chain management training and tools, and communicates major milestones along the path to success to our partners’ key stakeholders including employees, investors, suppliers, distributors, customers or media.
