The Inkerman Group has a long-standing and proven expertise in the investigation of supply chains and in conducting company audits particularly in the area of the Modern Slavery Act and related aspects. Our approach is to ensure that our clients receive the detailed, accurate and proportionate advice they need to verify conformity with the required legislation wherever they and their supply chain operate in the world.

Breaking the process down into Policy, Training and Auditing

POLICY

Works with clients to assess current Modern Slavery and Human Trafficking policies to confirm that these policies are compliant and up to date with new regulatory standards.

TRAINING

Bespoke online training modules includes both a comprehensive training package aimed to equip individuals at management level in MSA relevant roles as well as a programme which ensures that employees throughout the supply chain are made more aware and informed of the requirements.

All modules can be delivered with the provision of an established online learning platform if clients do not already have one in place.

AUDITING

Our leading-edge AI tool offers a unique and valuable aspect to the required due diligence process. The tool’s speed in collecting and organising vast amounts of data and accurately displaying meaningful connections makes sure that this process is not only fast but also cost-efficient.

The approach we take to grade each supplier risk ensures that the necessary due diligence processes are adopted to satisfy compliance in the most timely and price-efficient way. The Inkerman Group’s auditing service includes three distinct areas where we evaluate, conduct a thorough due diligence assessment based on ‘risk score’ and then report and advise dependent on the identified risk.

This comprehensive service also includes the legal elements of preparing the statements and provision of the relevant model contracts and physical audits.

With the introduction of updated and more robust legislation, the combination of our leading-edge AI tool and our experienced investigations team makes our MSA package a cut above the rest.
