    Vendor due diligence · €0.39 per check

    Screen a new supplier for €0.39 — the owner behind it for €14.90.

    A vendor questionnaire is a self-portrait, and most screening tools stop at the name on the invoice. A Quick Check runs the supplier against 51 sanctions sources, 16 criminal watchlists and a PEP domain of 750,000+ records from 134 public sources for €0.39. A Deep Research Report at €14.90 rebuilds the owners, officers and related companies from public sources and gives every entity and every relationship its own source URL.

    p. 01 / 08

    What inadequate supplier screening costs

    Three penalties, and in each one the name on the contract was never the problem.

    Selected supply-chain and third-party enforcement penalties

    $1.06B

    Ericsson · 2022

    DOJ found Ericsson paid bribes through intermediaries in Iraq, Djibouti, China, Vietnam, and Indonesia to win telecom contracts.

    What they missed: No one traced who controlled the intermediary companies receiving payments.

    $1.1B

    Glencore · 2022

    Glencore bribed officials across seven countries using a network of third-party agents — none of whom were screened for debarment.

    What they missed: Supplier screening stopped at the named company. The agents behind it were never checked.

    $635M

    British American Tobacco · 2023

    BAT was sanctioned for facilitating exports through a North Korea-linked distribution network embedded in their supply chain.

    What they missed: The distributor had a clean company name. The UBO had a sanctions designation.

    "They all passed a basic name check."

    Sanctions screen — every source, two hits

    p. 02 / 08

    A single-list check would have cleared this vendor.

    OFAC SDN and DGT France both flag Novex Industrial Supplies LLC. One list returns nothing; the 51 sanctions sources in a €0.39 Quick Check return two, one of them a French national designation a US-only screen never looks at.

    2 matches — OFAC SDN (US) and DGT France (FR). Coverage is not a rounding error: it is the difference between two hits and none.

    Ownership trace

    p. 03 / 08

    Who really controls this vendor?

    The company name matches nothing. Three corporate layers down, the ultimate beneficial owner is a different story, and the €14.90 Deep Research Report cites a source URL for every step of the chain.

    Ericsson

    DOJ / FCPA · 2022

    $1.06B

    Ericsson pleaded guilty to FCPA violations for bribing officials in Djibouti, China, Vietnam, Indonesia, and Kuwait through third-party agents in the supply chain. The company had failed to conduct adequate due diligence on intermediaries used to win telecom contracts.

    Supply chain intermediaries

    Glencore International

    DOJ / CFTC · 2022

    $1.1B

    Glencore admitted to a decade-long bribery scheme involving commodity trading agents across Africa, South America, and Southeast Asia. Suppliers and trading partners received corrupt payments funneled through shell companies in high-risk jurisdictions.

    Vendor payment network

    British American Tobacco

    OFAC / DOJ · 2023

    $635M

    BAT's subsidiary allowed a North Korean entity to participate in tobacco supply chains via a third-party partner in Singapore. The counterparty was ultimately controlled by an OFAC-designated entity. BAT's supplier screening failed to trace beneficial ownership.

    The verdict

    p. 05 / 08

    Decision: reject — with the evidence attached.

    Two sanctions hits, a debarment-listed beneficial owner and one adverse-media finding, all of it on the record before the first purchase order. The snapshot is stored as it stood today and never recalculated when a list moves.

    Supplier screening questions

    p. 08 / 08
    01What do I need to screen a new supplier?
    The registered name and the country. Trade names, director names and registration numbers narrow the candidate set and none of them are required to start.
    02What does the €0.39 check cover for a vendor?
    51 sanctions sources, 16 criminal and wanted-person watchlists, and a PEP domain of 750,000+ records from 134 public sources, in one deterministic run. Adverse media is a separate €0.99 check or part of Full Search at €5.90.
    03Do you check who actually owns the supplier?
    The Deep Research Report does, for €14.90. It reconstructs owners, officers and related companies from public sources, gives every entity and every relationship its own source URL, and reports contradictions between sources instead of picking a winner.
    04Do criminal and wanted-person lists cost extra?
    No. They run on every check. Most vendors treat that domain as a separate feed or leave it out, so a supplier who cleared their sanctions screen has not necessarily cleared a police register.
    05How is this different from a vendor self-assessment questionnaire?
    A questionnaire asks the supplier to describe its own risk. A screening checks the supplier against sources the supplier does not control, and stores what those sources said on the day you asked.
    06Can I screen the whole vendor roster at once?
    Yes. Upload CSV or XLSX, or POST /api/v1/batch. Every row bills at the same per-check rate as a single screening, and every row keeps its own evidence PDF.
    07Is the report enough for a procurement audit?
    It reproduces the screening as it stood on the date it ran, source by source, and is never recalculated when a list changes. That is what an examiner asks for. We publish no certifications and claim none.
    08What happens after the supplier is approved?
    Saved suppliers can be re-screened on a schedule. Monitoring is included with monthly plans and is currently in Beta; scheduled runs bill at normal check rates, with no separate watch fee.
