* The Sustainability Assessment Questionnaire (SAQ) was launched in 2014 by Drive Sustainability and delivered by SUPPLIERASSURANCE. The SAQ was designed with the objective to enhance sustainability in the supply chain by meticulously assessing policy and practice in the areas of social and environmental sustainability, health and safety, business ethics and compliance, supplier management and responsible sourcing of raw materials. The SAQ is implemented in the supply chain of global original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), tier1 and sub-tier automotive companies. Since the introduction of the SAQ, over 76,000 suppliers have been assessed and more than 127,000 SAQs have been successfully completed. The SAQ remains an essential sustainability due diligence tool in the automotive supply chain.
