GOLDBECK: Enhanced Supplier Monitoring with osapiens

GOLDBECK provides construction and operational services for an array of real estate types throughout Europe.

As a family-owned business prioritising economic and sustainable development, GOLDBECK delivers tailored function to its buildings. It integrates planning, construction and continuous service into one streamlined process for efficiency and speed, from warehouses to fire stations, offering refurbishment and maintenance tasks as well.

The company also manages a diverse supplier network. To adhere to the German Supply Chain Due Diligence Law (LkSG), which necessitates reviewing supply chains for risks to human rights and the environment, GOLDBECK has implemented the osapiens HUB platform.

It means GOLDBECK can digitise and automate supply chain operations, consolidating supplier data, managing risks efficiently and easing the path to transparency.

Compliance in construction

In 2022, GOLDBECK began preparing for LkSG compliance within its supplier network, but it proved challenging due to supplier volume, tight timelines and decentralised procurement.

The Act compels GOLDBECK to evaluate each direct supplier for human rights or environmental risks. This undertaking is particularly difficult in construction as each site involves multiple partners and subcontractors.

To avoid manual processing, GOLDBECK adopted osapiens HUB in a bid to automate due diligence and enhance risk monitoring. This allows for efficient supplier checks, eliminating redundancy and focusing on strategic examination.

With standardised interfaces and an intuitive dashboard, integration across departments is rapid, keeping GOLDBECK on schedule for legal reporting timelines. The platform boosts operational efficiency by evaluating suppliers' social and environmental practices, aligning with sustainability goals.

Centralising oversight of supply chains

GOLDBECK selected osapiens HUB to enhance transparency across its supply chain. The system digitises and automates supplier processes, centralises data and simplifies compliance procedures.

This gives GOLDBECK the capacity to monitor and analyse sustainability risks as part of a broader strategy.

The LkSG does not just bring legal obligation, but a chance to refine procurement practices and thwart harm.

osapiens HUB offers extensive supplier information for early issue detection and swift response, while providing a central location to track supplier data, aiding ESG reporting and aiding preparation for upcoming regulations.

Securing future compliance

Looking beyond LkSG compliance, GOLDBECK is set to tackle future regulations using osapiens HUB.

The platform centralises data management, making information accessible for future audits and reports, cutting down manual input across departments.

The software supports current and emerging compliance frameworks, such as EUDR, CSRD and CSDDD, positioning GOLDBECK as regulatory needs change.

“Many businesses see regulatory delays as a reason to slow down,” comments Alberto Zamora, CEO and Co-Founder of osapiens.

“Our customers take the opposite view: they prepare today to lead tomorrow. They don’t see sustainability as a regulatory burden, but as a competitive advantage. We’re proud to give them the technology and confidence to move forward.”

With osapiens HUB, GOLDBECK has secured a system crafted for growth, compliance and sustained supplier accountability.
