Sustainable Procurement Policy

It is the policy of Anderson Acoustics Ltd to identify and manage the environmental, social and economic impacts within our supply chain.   We operate an ISO 9001:2015 and ISO/IEC 17025:2005 accredited Quality Management System (QMS) which defines and manages how we select and work closely with sub-contractors and suppliers.

As such, the organisation is committed to:

• Setting objectives and action plans in support of this policy, and pursuing continuous improvement of our practices;
• Prioritising suppliers who have embedded sustainable and ethical practices within their organisation and who drive such practices within their own supply chain;
• Identifying areas of higher risk and influence within our supply chain and engaging with suppliers in those areas;
• Complying with the letter and spirit of all applicable legislation.

Through supplier selection, the organisation will favour suppliers that actively:

• Reduce their environmental footprint through:
• Conservation of resources, including the use of energy, water and materials;
• Waste minimisation, both within their operations and through reduction of packaging;
• Reducing the impact of deliveries and maximising local sourcing.
• Deliver benefits to society through:
• Ensuring that slavery and human trafficking is not taking place in any of their supply chains and in any part of their business
• Drive economic growth through:
• Supporting job creation and facilitating opportunities for small-and-medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and social businesses;
• Providing the Living Wage (at a minimum) to employees and contractors

This policy will be communicated throughout the company. It will be reviewed on a regular basis to evaluate continued relevance, monitor compliance and drive continual improvement.

This Policy is publicly available to interested external parties upon request.
