A Sedex Case Study
DuPont Nutrition and Biosciences, a global innovator in food, health, and biotechnology, faced a complex global supply chain with fragmented customer requests for ethical and sustainability data, duplicated effort, limited supplier visibility, and evolving compliance requirements. To address these challenges, DuPont partnered with Sedex and adopted Sedex’s platform and tools, including Self-Assessment Questionnaires (SAQs) and the SMETA audit framework, to standardize data collection and streamline reporting across its operations.
Using Sedex, DuPont centralized data management, standardized reporting, gained deeper supplier visibility, and implemented proactive risk assessment and benchmarking. The partnership delivered measurable impact—DuPont completed SAQs for 60+ sites and conducted 100+ SMETA audits—resulting in significant time savings, stronger supplier transparency (including contract manufacturers), faster customer responses, and improved ability to identify and mitigate supply chain risks with the support of Sedex.
