In your supply chain, compliance, reputation, and continuity.
Under Germany's Supply Chain Due Diligence Act (LkSG) and EU regulations; with risk analysis, contract architecture and reporting structures, we safeguard your business partnerships in the DACH market.
Global supply, local responsibility
Germany's LkSG regulation and the EU's due diligence rules hold large companies responsible for human rights and environmental risks in their supply chains. For Turkish suppliers that form part of the chain, this translates into a direct compliance expectation.
We build the risk analyses, supplier commitments, and reporting structures needed to meet German clients' demands, turning compliance into an advantage that protects your competitive strength in the DACH market.

You are generally expected to sign a code of conduct, be able to demonstrate that you comply with basic human rights and environmental standards, and be prepared for client audits. We prepare a compliance package tailored to you and suited to your scale.
Although the LkSG (Germany's Supply Chain Due Diligence Act) imposes obligations directly on large German companies, those companies pass their obligations on to their suppliers through contracts. If you supply a German customer, you will encounter demands relating to codes of conduct, audits, and reporting. Compliance is a condition for maintaining this business relationship.
A complaints mechanism is mandatory for companies within the scope of the law; suppliers, too, may be expected to contribute to an accessible reporting channel. We design the mechanism so that it is legally compliant, preserves confidentiality, and functions operationally.
Yes. Due to their own legal risks, German clients may cease working with non-compliant suppliers or reduce their orders. Compliance is not merely an obligation; it safeguards your commercial relationship and competitiveness in the DACH market.
The timeline and cost depend on the size of the company, the complexity of the supply chain, and the existing structure. A focused risk analysis and a core set of documents can be put in place in a short time. With a prioritised roadmap, we address the most critical risks in the most economical way.
