ASSURANCE
AND COMPLIANCE
At CIPS, we understand the increasing concerns around procurement and supply chain
risk and in response we have developed an extensive portfolio to help you deal
effectively with these issues. From ensuring you have the right measures in place for
supply assurance and compliance, to skills training aimed at tackling procurement
fraud, embedding ethical behaviour and planning for future risks, our individual
programmes and solutions include the following:
CIPS Supply
Assurance and
Compliance
Effective
supply assurance
and compliance...
Improves:
• Value to shareholders
and stakeholders
• Resilience and
confidence
• Quality of procurement
• Image and reputation.
Reduces:
• Supply chain risk
• Inconsistency and
interruptions in supply
• Cost and time spent on
firefighting.
Helps to meet:
• Requirements of
legislation
• Public duty and
corporate social
responsibility obligations
• Client, investor and
stakeholder
expectations.
BENEFITS
BUSINESS
forCIPS
Resilience to protect your organisation
against risk ensuring a sustainability of
supply and compliance with legislation.
Corporate Certification Standard
Ensure effective governance for supply assurance and
compliance, gain greater influence over spend and
demonstrate value by achieving an internationally
recognised award. You will also start achieving cost
savings through a series of ‘quick wins’ and build
credibility with senior management to generate
stronger buy-in and investment for systems and staff.
Fraud Advisory Service
Recognise the serious implications of fraud and take
immediate action to prevent, identify and reduce risk
at all levels with the CIPS Fraud Advisory Service - a
multi-layered approach to eradicating fraud in your
supply chain.
Independent and trusted, CIPS is in the best
position to help your organisation achieve
sustainable value delivery.
The Chartered Institute of Procurement and Supply
(CIPS) is the world’s largest professional organisation
dedicated to procurement and supply. We act as
the profession’s ‘voice’, provide globally
recognised qualifications, and support
organisations and individuals to achieve
excellence in procurement. With our latest
call for a Licence to Practise, we have also
become the champion for ethical
procurement and supply.
Sustainability to help your organisation
eliminate waste, become more energy
efficient and save money.
Sustainable Procurement Review
Find out the economic, social and environmental
impact of your organisation’s purchasing and
supply function with an independent audit of
‘green’ procurement. Achieving an award can
help to enhance your organisation’s image and
act as a motivator for both staff and suppliers.
CIPS Sustainabiity Index
Benchmark your suppliers’ organisational
sustainability with the independent, cross-sector
financial, social and environmental supplier audit.
This is the only independent, verified
measurement tool available, allowing suppliers to
prove their sustainability credentials and buyers
to obtain essential sustainability information in a
more efficient way than via individual and
lengthy questionnaires.
Risk in the supply chain can have a serious effect on your
organisation’s ability to operate. CIPS can support you to
implement strategies aimed at eliminating fraud and
corruption in the supply chain and embedding ethical
behaviour, giving you the reassurance that you are
effectively identifying and managing vulnerabilities.
Increasing globalisation has led to a much higher level of risk for the
extended supply chains most organisations now operate. As a procurement
specialist, you know that the repercussions of not tackling the issues of
ethics and malpractice could include reduced profitability and ability to
deliver quality of service, along with serious damage to your reputation
and stakeholder confidence. This makes managing risk and your supply
base vital, not only to comply with increasingly stringent legislation, but
also to drive organisational value.
Insights to ensure that you are aware of the
bigger picture and how this could result in
supply chain risk.
Risk Index
Understand the risks to which your supply chains are
exposed with the CIPS Risk Index, powered by Dun and
Bradstreet (D&B). Use the CIPS Risk Index Quarterly Report
as an early warning of changes in the macro environment
that may affect your supply chain, then drill down to a
regional and country level perspective, enabling you to
develop robust risk management strategies and mitigate
against risk.
Purchasing managers’ Index
Give your procurement teams the most up-to-the-minute
data with a highly accurate set of facts about current
industry conditions in manufacturing, construction and
services. PMIs can be used to help gauge general price
trends, assess supplier delivery times, support negotiations
with suppliers and for benchmarking. Reports are
discounted for CIPS members.
A comprehensive approach
to ensuring effective
protection against risk in
the supply chain
CIPS
Solutions
SUPPLY
ASSURANCE
AND COMPLIANCE
Ethics to drive out procurement and
supply chain malpractice and

approach to ethical
behaviour.

and Supply pathway - four essential steps to
embed an understanding of and
commitment to ethics. Organisations
undertaking these steps will be
recognised with a listing on the CIPS
Corporate Ethical Register and a
CIPS Corporate Ethical Mark for
use on company literature to
acknowledge an understanding
of and commitment to
ethical procurement.
Transformational Services
Gain support in producing procurement
and supply chain management policy
and procedure manuals, and in
proposing changes to optimise
procurement processes for
