The assessment
is for the Singapore operations of the company
Every
company needs to define what aspects
of the supply chain operations are being
carried out in Singapore
Cross
border aspects should be treated as
either dealing with customers or suppliers
Internal and external
-
Internal customers
/ suppliers: includes those who are outside
Singapore. For different legal entities within
Singapore, decision needs to be taken.
- Bottom line – if they are not under
scope of assessment, they need to be treated
as a partner
-
External customers
/ suppliers: all those who are not treated
as ‘internal’
Business:
Each assessment should be for a business.
Companies with different types of business
need to consider which business should be
subject to assessment.
