diligence system. We ask suppliers to provide information about their timber and paper products, components and timber sources for the purpose of conducting risk assessment on timber supply
chains.

Enter basic company details about your company in the "Company details" tab. Then use the "PRODUCT" tab to record information about your suppliers and sub-suppliers for each product,
component and timber source for each supply chain. You DO NOT need to complete the columns under 'Supply Chain Evaluation' (the light green and pink/purple cells).
