In our experience, it is crucial for companies to exercise due diligence when verifying their suppliers and business partners in order to prevent potential VAT fraud.
Another important aim is to mitigate the risks arising from suppliers that are not sufficiently stable from a financial, tax or other legal perspective, or the risk of non-payment by customers. By automating the process with software, the entire partner portfolio can be verified not only at the time of tendering or contracting with a supplier, but also on a monthly, weekly or even daily basis. In addition to minimising risks, PwC’s Intelligent Risk Monitoring system can help to significantly reduce the manual work involved in supplier due diligence.
PwC’s Intelligent Risk Monitoring makes it possible to verify both prospective suppliers (onboarding check) and existing suppliers during the contractual relationship (portfolio check) in a verifiable and automated way, in accordance with NAV’s audit requirements.
