5. Enabling Responsible Supply Chains Clearinghouse Concept

6. Enabling Responsible Supply Chains What is the partnership model?  The partnership model is a fresh look at membership types in the FFC that is inclusive of all supply chain actors, in order to create opportunities for information management, data exchange, transparency and collaboration at any level in the supply chain  Any actor in the supply chain will be able to join the FFC and use its software tools, for a minimal fee, to manage its compliance performance, and then provide visibility to its buyers and partners: Membership at the “top” of the supply chain will remain as it does Membership to the FFC (and the use of the FFC software) will be expanded to supply chain actors in the “middle” and the “bottom” of the supply chain, as well as any service providers servicing them

8. Enabling Responsible Supply Chains Why is the FFC expanding membership? We seek to augment our ability to meet our mission by:  Expanding our reach of our clearinghouse of factory information  Creating more opportunities for collaboration, reducing audit fatigue  Supporting a “bottom-up” approach to compliance, where suppliers manage the entire compliance process, and companies who operate  Providing tools to supply chain actors that enable them to manage and share compliance information for its buyers  Bringing in the expertise and contacts of service providers into our membership community, and easing their implementation for clients  Gaining access to additional data for analysis, derived from multiple sources  Opening additional sources of revenue

15. Enabling Responsible Supply Chains How will it change for existing members?  The use of the system for our current members and their users will not change at all.  All will continue to use the system as is, including having their suppliers log in on their behalf. Members will still control what a supplier can see and do in their system, but now if that supplier also joins the FFC, they will also get their own version of the system.  Scenario: Company X is a current FFC. X created an account in their system for their trading agent, Agent. X gave an Employee of Agent access to the system to upload corrective action plans. Agent also became an Intermediary member of the FFC. Employee will have two versions of the software: Logging in for X, where she upload audits only for factories where X has given her access Logging in for Agent, where she has full use of the system as defined by Agent’s system administrator
