Supplier Self-Assessment
All major suppliers must complete a mandatory Supplier Self-Assessments that relate to all below requirement documents: Code-of-Conduct, Environmental requirements before they are selected. The self-assessment is a questionnaire and is an important tool for evaluating existing and potential new suppliers to Talkpool.


Talkpool’s Supplier Evaluation and Selection
The self-assessment is used to communicate Talkpool general requirements and expectations to our suppliers, to collect information for supplier and to identify potential risks connected to a certain supplier and supply chains.


Suppliers not adhering to Talkpool‘s requirements may be subject to termination of their contracts.
