DUE DILIGENCE PROCESS

BVRio Due Diligence and Risk Assessment system assists you to evaluate the supply chain of each timber consignment traded, facilitating compliance with the EU Timber Regulation and the US Lacey Act.

  • Gather information about the timber you have acquired, including country of source, supplier, species, and documentation.
  • Risk assessment of the timber product and its supply chain. BVRio's system was designed specifically to guide you through this process. Start a risk assessment.
  • Risk mitigation. If risk of illegality is identified, measures need to be put in place to minimize it, including obtaining additional information and/or engaging third party verification.
To prepare yourself for conducting a due diligence, consult BVRio's Due Diligence Guides.

Additional information for points 1 and 3 above can be found in NEPCon Sourcing Hub, WRI Open Timber Portal, or the European Sustainable Tropical Timber Coalition.

DATABASES STORED USING BLOCKCHAIN TECHNOLOGY

DUE DILIGENCE AND RISK
ASSESSMENT METHODOLOGY

Depending on data availability, the due diligence process is based on cross checking official documentation, external data sources, and satellite imagery. In the case of Brazil, the system is based on big data analysis and conducts over 2 billion cross-checks of multiple databases updated on a daily basis (see report).


  • Document Analysis

    Documentation is checked to verify compliance with applicable legislation.
  • Remote Sensing

    Status of logging operations are checked with satellite imagery.
  • External Databases

    Verification of official lists of environmental infractions, license cancellations, slave labour, etc.
  • Field Audits

    If necessary, field audits can be conducted.
  • Supply Chain Risk Analysis

    Individual timber lots are rated according to Key Risk Indicators associated with their supply chain.
