We can evaluate information on suppliers in a number of ways, and buyer communities can choose the methods which work best for them.
Scoring can be applied by topic, or product code or however the customer requires.
Some buyers like to take the information we have validated and check it against their own criteria before they Approve that supplier.
For more risk-critical suppliers, physical Audits are carried out by Achilles, and the resulting data is then assessed and verified.
e-Qual enables buyers to ask selected suppliers additional questions that are not included in the standard pre-qualification questionnaire.
In conjunction with key Buyers Achilles has developed the Achilles carbonReduction programme CEMARS (Certified Emissions Management and Reduction Scheme) for suppliers to measure, manage and report their organisational carbon footprint in a uniquely cost effective and efficient way through their supply chain community. CEMARS includes an audit to validate supplier information and enables suppliers to defend claims about emissions and reduction plans with verified information. Buyers can use CEMARS information to gain visibility of carbon related supply chain risk, make informed purchasing decisions and meet sustainable procurement goals.
