Across the Newable Group, we are committed to responsibly managing our suppliers and ensuring they meet the ESG standards we expect. We actively manage our suppliers across the Group and take this opportunity to highlight a case study of how ARC Building Solutions are managing their supply chain.

Recognising the pivotal role their suppliers play in shaping the sustainability and resilience of their supply chain, ARC has instituted a Supply Chain Questionnaire. This tool allows them to gather insights from their suppliers, promoting transparency, continuous improvement, and shared success.

The Supply Chain Questionnaire is designed to gather information across various aspects of their supply chain, including operational practices and risk management. This comprehensive approach allows ARC to gain a holistic view of their supply chain operations and identify areas for improvement.

The questionnaire includes a range of questions aimed at understanding the suppliers’ operations in detail. These questions help ARC gain a deeper understanding of its suppliers’ operational practices, sourcing strategies, packaging methods, and quality assurance processes. This information is crucial in ensuring the sustainability and resilience of ARC’s supply chain.

 

Questions include:

What are the raw materials used in the production process?

How do you source raw materials and components for your products?

What type of packaging do you supply to ARC Building Solutions?

How do you ensure that your suppliers meet your quality standards?
