Fields

  • The supplier's email and the text of its onboarding form and documents

Context

We are the procurement team of Calder Property Group, which manages office buildings. New suppliers send an onboarding pack: a cover email, our completed onboarding form and supporting documents. The text is the email followed by the text of each attachment. The answers tell the procurement officer what is missing before they start the review; the officer reviews the pack and decides whether the supplier is approved. Dates on certificates are checked against today in code. Onboarding checklist: 1. Company details: the registered company name, the company registration number and the registered address. 2. Insurance: a certificate for public liability and one for employers' liability, each naming the insurer, the limit of cover and the policy period. 3. Health and safety: a health and safety policy signed by a director, and risk assessments for the work the supplier will do for us. 4. Quality: an ISO 9001 certificate or an equivalent, naming the certifying body, the certificate number and the expiry date. 5. Data protection: when the supplier will handle personal data for us, a data processing agreement signed by the supplier. 6. References: customer references, each with a named contact and an email address or phone number.

Questions

  1. Does the submission include the text of its documents, not only their file names? Yes / No

    Answer No when the text lists attachments by name but holds none of their content, or when the documents came through as unreadable text. Yes: The text of the form or the documents is present and readable. No: Only the email, attachment names or unreadable text is present.

  2. Does the submission give the supplier's registered company name, registration number and registered address? Yes / No

    Use checklist item 1. Yes: All three are given. No: At least one of the three is missing.

  3. Does the submission include both liability insurance certificates the checklist asks for? Yes / No

    Use checklist item 2. A certificate counts only when its text is in the submission and names the insurer, the limit of cover and the policy period. A certificate promised later does not count. Yes: Both certificates are included, each with those details. No: At least one certificate is missing, promised later, or lacks those details.

  4. What does the submission say about the status of its quality certificate? Choice

    Use checklist item 4. Go by what the submission states; do not compare the expiry date with today. Pick one option.

    • Given, not stated as expired A certificate is included with the certifying body, number and expiry date, and nothing says it has expired or been withdrawn.
    • Stated as expired The submission says the certificate has expired, lapsed, been suspended or withdrawn, even if a renewal is booked.
    • Not provided No quality certificate is included, or it is promised later, or it lacks the certifying body, number or expiry date.
  5. Does the submission include a health and safety policy signed by a director, and risk assessments for the work? Yes / No

    Use checklist item 3. Yes: A signed policy and risk assessments for the work are both included. No: Either is missing, unsigned or promised later.

  6. Does the supplier say it will handle personal data for us, and is a signed data processing agreement included? Choice

    Use checklist item 5. Pick one option.

    • Needed and signed The supplier will handle personal data for us, and a data processing agreement signed by the supplier is included.
    • Needed, not signed The supplier will handle personal data for us, and no signed data processing agreement is included.
    • Not needed The submission says the supplier will handle no personal data for us.
  7. Does the submission give customer references, each with a named contact and an email address or phone number? Yes / No

    Use checklist item 6. Yes: References are given, and each has a named person and a way to reach them. No: No references are given, or a reference lacks a named person or a way to reach them.

  8. Is the submission complete enough under the checklist for a procurement officer to start the review? Yes / No

    Judge the pack against the whole checklist in the context. Yes: Every checklist item is given, or stated as not needed, and nothing is stated as expired. No: At least one item is missing, promised later or stated as expired, so the officer should ask the supplier for it first.
