Program Overview: What is German Supply Chain Act (LkSG) Compliance?
German Supply Chain Act (LkSG) Compliance is a 24-hour program for compliance, procurement, and sustainability teams operating in Germany. It covers what the Lieferkettengesetz requires: human rights and environmental due diligence across your own operations and your supply chains. Each statutory duty, from risk analysis to BAFA reporting, becomes a clear, repeatable control.
Training runs across six modules over 24 hours with hands-on labs throughout. Participants build a risk management system, run risk analyses with scoring tools, design preventive measures and grievance procedures, plan remedial action, and prepare BAFA reporting. Instructors with supply chain compliance experience review every control and coach the documentation. The program closes with the Capstone: End-to-End LkSG Due Diligence Cycle.
LkSG turns supply chain diligence from a nice-to-have into a legal duty with fines attached, and most companies are not ready. Risk analyses are shallow, grievance procedures exist on paper, and BAFA reporting is a scramble. This program builds the full due diligence cycle, so human rights and environmental risks are managed before the regulator asks.
The capstone is an end-to-end due diligence cycle on a realistic supply chain: risk analysis, preventive measures, grievance procedure, remedial plan, and a BAFA-ready report, all documented. Reviewers test the cycle against the statutory duties, and the team leaves with a working LkSG program it can operate year after year.
Upskill teams on the Act's full duty set: risk management systems, regular and ad-hoc risk analyses, declarations of principles, preventive measures for direct suppliers, grievance procedures, remedial action, monitoring, and documentation. Each duty is broken into practical checks, templates, and lab exercises tied to your organization. Focus on what matters for your training needs: audit readiness, regulatory requirements, and control frameworks that make due diligence repeatable and measurable.

Build Traceable LkSG Due Diligence From Supplier Risks to Reporting
Edstellar connects supply-chain due diligence with the records and decisions that sustain it. Participants establish responsibilities, score supplier risks, and design preventive and grievance processes before preparing monitoring and reporting material. The final mock supply-chain cycle is reviewed for evidence-based priorities, coherent remediation, and links between identified risks and management actions.
- Step 01
Consult
We review uncertainties in supplier-risk analysis, responsibility allocation, and grievance handling, establishing the cohort's procurement, legal, compliance, and audit roles before practice.
- Step 02
Plan
LkSG scope and management responsibilities lead into risk scoring, prevention and grievance procedures, then remediation and reporting before the complete due-diligence cycle.
- Step 03
Align
We align supply-chain compliance expertise with the cohort's sector and oversight responsibilities, building policy foundations without assuming previous supplier due-diligence experience.
- Step 04
Customize
Fictional supplier portfolios and monitoring records reflect relevant sourcing patterns, allowing risk and grievance analysis without disclosing commercial information or identifiable complainants.
- Step 05
Execute
Participants score suppliers, design grievance workflows, and assemble BAFA-style report packs, receiving feedback on documented risks, preventive measures, and the consistency of monitoring evidence.
- Step 06
Evaluate
We assess the due-diligence cycle for justified risk priorities, clear responsibility, connected preventive and remedial actions, and reporting supported by the underlying monitoring records.
