Supplier engagement

From supplier data to informed decisions.

Supplier assessments are more useful when answers, evidence and follow-up stay connected. Jaznexus brings these steps together, with on-site verification where a deeper look is needed.

01

Invite & assess

Add suppliers and invite them to complete structured ESG assessments with supporting documents.

02

Review & prioritize

See responses, risk indicators and information from public sources to identify areas needing attention.

03

Verify & monitor

Follow progress over time and, when needed, go beyond the questionnaire with an on-site social audit.

Beyond the questionnaire

Digital insight. On-site understanding.

The platform helps gather supplier information and identify where closer verification may be needed. On-site social audits then examine working conditions, labour practices, human rights and workplace safety in person.

An AI-assisted auditing app is being developed with RTU as a prototype to support document review and safety-risk detection during audits.

Could sustainability become a reason to lose your place in the supply chain?

Sustainability and cooperations

40% of large Finnish companies expect to change suppliers or subcontractors due to ESG requirements.

According to OP Pohjola's 2026 Large Corporations Survey, which included 139 large companies operating in Finland, around half of those planning supplier changes expect Finnish SMEs to be particularly affected.

What does this mean for businesses operating in international supply chains?

Price, quality and delivery performance still matter. But the ability to demonstrate responsible business practices is becoming increasingly important.

And this brings me to something I often see in my work with social audits: having policies is not the same as implementing them.

A company may have a Code of Conduct, a health and safety policy and a commitment to respecting human rights.

But what happens in practice? Are working hours accurately recorded? Is overtime properly compensated? Are health and safety procedures followed? Can employees raise concerns safely?

And when non-compliances are identified, does the company take meaningful corrective action?

Social audits help assess whether a company's risk management processes actually work.

Not every supplier needs an audit — requirements depend on the industry, risks and customer expectations. However, buyers increasingly expect reliable, verifiable information from their suppliers.

Many SMEs already follow responsible business practices but struggle to document and communicate them effectively.

And this is where sustainability becomes a business competitiveness issue.

Companies don't necessarily need lengthy reports or multiple audits to get started. Identifying key risks, organising documentation and preparing credible evidence can already make a difference.

Because being a responsible supplier is important. Being able to prove it may become your competitive advantage.

Are your customers asking for more information about working conditions, supply chain risks or social audits?
