  • Extend the requirements of the IMPA ACT Code of Conduct to all your business relationships, collaborating closer with at least one supplier every year;
  • Report progress of your business relationships to the IMPA ACT team regularly, so as to avoid - as much as possible - overlaps of engagement within the IMPA ACT programme;
  • Join the IMPA ACT community and contribute with recommendations, insight and best practice.
  • Evaluate your business relationships at step six of the process and refer accordingly to IMPA ACT, so the team can reach out for the final certification.
