📂 Audit & Due Diligence Repository
Organize What Matters. Prove What’s Been Done.
Audits, assessments, declarations, policies, and corrective actions—managing this volume of evidence across a global supply chain can quickly become unmanageable. Yet for compliance with standards like SA8000, RJC, ISO 37301, and legislation such as the EU CSDDD, centralized and traceable documentation is not only helpful—it’s essential.
BRAND’s Audit & Due Diligence Repository gives your team a single, structured location to store and connect all due diligence data across suppliers, sites, and time periods—providing audit-ready traceability and compliance proof at your fingertips.
