• | We continued to require our new direct materials suppliers and suppliers of new products or components to provide information regarding 3TGs. We continued to educate suppliers on the importance of the RCOI process and our Company’s expectations to enhance their responses and improve our direct supplier surveys and due diligence process. We augmented disclosure clauses regarding 3TGs in new supply contracts and supplier contract renewals as necessary. |
• | Our Conflict Minerals Steering Committee continued its efforts to: (i) ensure the management systems are adequate; (ii) review the RCOI and due diligence process; (iii) discuss what actions West should take to help mitigate risk; and (iv) report the status of West’s Conflict Minerals program to senior management periodically. |
• | We enhanced communication with our suppliers by sending them the West Business Partner Code of Conduct, improved tracking mechanisms by maintaining a database to store supplier information and increased employee education. These efforts were designed to help ensure the supply chain survey reached all relevant suppliers and adequate responses were received. We evaluated the responses against criteria designed to identify those suppliers that warrant further investigation, including for example, untimely, inconsistent or incomplete responses, requests for confidentiality, missing or erroneous data, whether the supplier was a U.S. publicly-held company, the size of the supplier’s business and the material supplied to us. As appropriate, we followed up directly with suppliers, and in some cases, the suppliers of our suppliers, whose answers required us to obtain additional information, and updated responses. While we did not receive 100% of the responses sought, we plan to evaluate our results this year and consider possible additional steps to further enhance engagement with our suppliers. |
