Automating TPDD
In addition to training and awareness-raising, Primagaz France decided to integrate an automatic check of the TPDD procedure into the procurement process when adding a supplier to its database.
This automatic check is a mandatory step if Primagaz France wants to work with a supplier and pay them, so the compliance check takes place at a crucial strategic moment. In case the purchase controller reports any deviation to the TPDD process, adding a supplier to the database is adjourned until the compliance assessment is completed. Primagaz France also integrated other elements of compliance into the supplier creation process, including questions about conflicts of interest.
Today, in Primagaz France, monitoring the TPDD procedure is everyone's business.
“To be efficient, compliance must be integrated into all business processes, understood by all and easy to handle.”
