Here’s how to move from planning to impact:
1
Create your own checklist
to tackle the ‘Three C’s’
Start by developing a tailored checklist that aligns with your organisation’s workforce
strategy. This should include:
Compliance checkpoints: Are suppliers vetted? Are contracts up-to-date?
Are audits scheduled?
Cost control measures: Are you tracking spend by supplier, role, department and site?
Are you leveraging volume discounts?
Transparency goals: Is workforce data centralised? Are ESG metrics being reported?
This checklist will become your operational guide - helping teams stay focused,
accountable, and aligned.
2
Engage with your
supply chain
Your suppliers are not just vendors-they are strategic partners.
Engage them in conversations about:
Regulatory changes (e.g. Employment Rights Bill, IR35, ESG mandates).
Performance expectations (fill rates, compliance, diversity).
Innovation opportunities (technology adoption, process improvements).
Regular engagement fosters collaboration, improves responsiveness,
and ensures suppliers are aligned with your values and goals.
