These goods and services are grouped into the following categories: Capital Operational Professional services Digital IT Services and Telecoms Commercial (includes airlines, ground handlers and retailers) Each department within the airports will, to a greater or lesser extent have a supply chain in which it depends on, and the interdependencies of the various departments, as well as the commonality of goods and services required across the AGS Group, results in some suppliers that have dealings with more than one department and/or airport. During 2020, AGS Procurement continually reviewed all suppliers in the supply chain for compliance with the Act. We have in the region of 918 suppliers across the AGS Group. Many of these will have turnovers greater than £36 million which trigger the compliance requirements of the Modern Slavery Act 2015 and are required to produce a Modern Slavery Statement. 4. Procurement Governance and Monitoring AGS’ Group Procurement team monitor the AGS supply chain on an annual basis and at the commencement of any new sourcing activity to ensure modern slavery compliance in order to demonstrate compliance with the obligations of the Act. Prior to a tender process, all new suppliers are sent a Pre-Qualification Questionnaire (“PQQ”) or an Invitation to Tender (“ITT”), which includes a section on modern slavery. The Supplier may not progress beyond the tender stage if they are highlighted as having a risk at this stage. When AGS engage with a new supplier out with a tender process, a new supplier questionnaire, which includes a modern slavery section, is issued to the supplier in order to satisfy AGS requirements in respect to the Act. AGS Procurement review the response to these questionnaires and determine whether there are any risks associated with the response, assess suitability of the supplier and any steps required to manage the modern slavery risk based on the response provided. AGS Procurement also record any modern slavery risk in the Procurement risk register until mitigation is in place. If a supplier provides insufficient details to the questionnaire, or is highlighted as being a high risk supplier in the Modern Slavery Act, such as manufacturing companies or uniform providers, Procurement will carry out further investigations into the suppliers modern slavery compliance either by carrying out a desk-top audit, telephone audit or by visiting the suppliers premises to carry out a full audit on the company. The audit documents delve deeper into a business’s ethical behaviour, duty of care to employees, and the policies they have in place to satisfy procurement that the modern slavery risk is satisfactorily managed by the supplier. AGS also provide feedback and actions to mitigate any potential risks. If after an on-site audit a supplier is deemed to be non-compliant with the provisions of the Modern Slavery Act, the supplier will be removed from the supply chain, and an alternative supplier will be sourced. AGS Airports monitor all supplier’s modern slavery compliance on the Procurement risk register. 5.
