Homologation of Suppliers

Ensure your suppliers meet all necessary safety, legal, and financial standards with data-driven prequalification.

For a company that values security, it is essential to understand the risks a supplier may bring to your operations and carry out a proactive prequalification to protect yourself.

Today, many organizations understand that choosing a supplier isn’t only about cost; it’s also about the risks involved in the contract that could lead to significant future losses. After all, the cost of a supplier isn’t just about the commercial proposal price but also the risks they bring to the contracting company.

With proactive prequalification, we can evaluate key items such as financial statements, certificates, the supplier’s economic dependence on any client, environmental concerns, and more.

We offer different levels of prequalification, adaptable to the contracting company’s needs and risks, especially concerning technical documents, labor safety, environmental matters, and others.

Background check

A comprehensive background check on your supplier helps you assess potential risks with just the supplier’s CNPJ (company registration number) and provides answers to crucial questions, such as:

– Who are the suppliers’ partners?
– Are any of the partners politically exposed?
– Is there any history of slave labor involvement?
– Does the supplier have labor lawsuits, or negative press?

A background check can also help map risks related to the partners of the company with only their CPF (individual tax ID),

Key activities in background check:

Investigate the background of the supplier’s partners or the economic group behind the company.
Check for unethical practices and negative media coverage (corruption, fraud, money laundering, crimes).
Identify if any partners are politically exposed persons (PEPs).
Search for records related to slave labor and occurrences in the Portal da Transparência (Transparency Portal).
Access public legal processes the supplier may be involved in.
Verify if the supplier is listed in the National Register of Ineligible and Suspended Companies (CIES).
Check if the supplier is registered in the National Register of Penalized Companies (CNEP).
