• | We established a cross-functional team to implement and manage our conflict minerals compliance program. The team, led by our procurement group, includes representatives from our business and subject matter experts in the fields of engineering, information technology, legal, operations and procurement. |
• | We adopted a Conflict Minerals Policy Statement that applies to all of our suppliers. Our Conflict Minerals Policy Statement is publicly available on our website at: https://www.xylem.com/en-US/about-xylem/conflict-minerals-policy-statement/ |
• | Our controls include our Code of Conduct and our Supplier Code of Conduct, which outline expected behaviors for our employees and suppliers. In addition, we added a compliance clause to new and renewed supplier contracts, setting forth our expectation that suppliers provide the product content information the Company needs to comply with our conflict minerals reporting obligations. |
• | We have a Helpline that provides employees and suppliers with a mechanism to report violations or concerns related to our policies, including our Conflict Minerals Policy Statement, Code of Conduct and our Supplier Code of Conduct. |
• | We engaged Assent Compliance to assist with evaluating supply chain information regarding 3TGs and to assist with the development and implementation of additional due diligence steps. |
• | To assist in improving the quality of the responses we received from our suppliers, we used Assent’s Learning Management System, Assent University, and provided all in-scope suppliers access to Assent’s Conflict Minerals training course. |
• | Engage with suppliers in an effort to improve the quality of the information we receive and to increase the volume of product-specific responses. |
• | Work with suppliers who provide incomplete or inconsistent information. |
• | Refine our scoping approach, so that our efforts will be directed at the most relevant subset of our supply base. |
• | Communicate to suppliers our expectations regarding compliance with the Company’s Conflict Minerals Policy Statement. |
• | Conduct due diligence to improve the traceability of the minerals in our products and the overall transparency of our supply chain. |
