tailored approach to communicating with our wide spectrum of stakeholders. Our commitment to sustainability extends throughout our supply chain. We engage with suppliers before and after they are integrated into our supply chain because we believe that our sustainability goals cannot be achieved in isolation and require the collaboration of all stakeholders. Suppliers, in particular, are our focus to transforming the industry and ensuring palm oil is produced sustainably.</p> <p>Priority in engagement is given to long term suppliers or those who sell us large quantities of raw materials. However, smaller suppliers who are willing to adopt more responsible practices are also given equal priority to enter our sustainable supply chain.</p> <p>For suppliers, we conduct regional workshops that spur discussions on incorporating sustainability and traceability as part of their quality management system. The engagement process involves visits to the mills and estates to identify areas for improvement needed to adhere to Apical’s <a href="/sustainability/policies/#sustainability" rel="">Sustainability Policy </a>commitments and global standards.</p> <p>Apical has developed a Sustainability Implementation Framework (A-SIMPLE Framework) to ensure effective implementation of our policy in bringing suppliers on our sustainability journey.

Potential suppliers are evaluated based on a full review of their company profile and their ability to present official licenses and/or permits that meet legal requirements. All new suppliers must provide information of their sustainability practices as well as the level of traceability within their operations.</p> <p>Apical’s suppliers are required to comply with our Sustainability and Sourcing policies – we emphasise this within the terms and conditions of our commercial arrangement. Apical ensures the commitment to ethical conduct and prohibition of corruption is abided by their suppliers through the Code of Procurement Ethics (COPE).</p> </div> </div> </div> <div id="tab-active-suppliers" data-tab-icon="" class="wpb_tab ui-tabs-panel wpb_ui-tabs-hide clearfix"> <div class="wpb_text_column wpb_content_element " > <div class="wpb_wrapper"> <h4>Active Suppliers</h4> <p>Once suppliers are contracted into our supply chain, we continue to pro-actively engage with them to monitor policy compliance and facilitate continuous transformation towards sustainability.

Failure to respond and commit towards remedial action triggers a suspension of contracts until progress has been made or the issue has been resolved.

To ensure their compliance, we verified the information gathered based on a set of ESG related checklist via the PSEP programme. PSEP is a deep dive supplier engagement process involving 5 days field visit to each site including plantations, dealers and cooperatives. Additionally, we also conduct verification of NDPE Compliance of our suppliers through the NDPE IRF model conducted by external verifier, Peterson Control Union.</p> <p>The PSEP assesses our high-risk suppliers, prioritised through the MPP, on their level of compliance with our Sustainability Policy and other industry standards. The assessment focuses on six key guiding principles. For suppliers in the PSEP, we will conduct field visits which allows us to have personal interaction and more effective communication. Deeper engagements facilitate a better understanding of our suppliers, provide new insights into their practices, and help to identify gaps for improvement.</p> <p>The most common social issues identified include land conflicts resulting from the lack of Free Prior Informed Consent (FPIC) between the company and communities and the absence of clear land boundaries being defined. From an environmental perspective, most issues are centred on water and air pollution from the milling process. Deforestation and biodiversity issues are also identified and linked to mill operations.</p> <p>Through our engagements, we provide detailed guidance on developing Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and sustainability management systems. After the PSEP visits, we continue to maintain a proactive relationship with these suppliers to ensure that action plans have been implemented and provide further assistance where required.</p> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="vc_col-sm-6 wpb_column column_container vc_column_container col child_column no-extra-padding inherit_tablet inherit_phone " data-padding-pos="all" data-has-bg-color="false" data-bg-color="" data-bg-opacity="1" data-animation="" data-delay="0" > <div class="vc_column-inner" > <div class="wpb_wrapper"> <div class="wpb_text_column wpb_content_element vc_custom_1617677096069" > <div class="wpb_wrapper"> <p>The PSEP is an ongoing process and while we aim to visit all the identified potential high-risk mills, our target is a minimum of 10 mills annually.

To ensure that NDPE practices are in place and risks within our supply chain are identified, Apical has developed the SFA tool to help our suppliers assess their own operations’ compliance with the requirements.</p> <p>In 2019, we conducted a trial with some of our big and medium suppliers, as well as suppliers who only operate mills to test the usability of the tool. After the one-month trial and based on feedback obtained, we rolled out the SFA for all our suppliers who are required to fill up a questionnaire to identify gaps in practices against our Sustainability Policy commitments and areas of support needed to close those gaps. Where gaps are identified, we will then engage these suppliers through our PSEP and SVP programmes.</p> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="vc_col-sm-6 wpb_column column_container vc_column_container col child_column no-extra-padding inherit_tablet inherit_phone " data-padding-pos="all" data-has-bg-color="false" data-bg-color="" data-bg-opacity="1" data-animation="" data-delay="0" > <div class="vc_column-inner" > <div class="wpb_wrapper"> <div class="img-with-aniamtion-wrap " data-max-width="100%" data-max-width-mobile="default" data-shadow="none" data-animation="fade-in" > <div class="inner"> <div class="hover-wrap" data-hover-animation="zoom-crop"> <div class="hover-wrap-inner"> <a href="https://www.apicalgroup.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/ASIMPLE_sfa-1.jpg" class="pp "> <img decoding="async" class="img-with-animation skip-lazy nectar-lazy" data-delay="0" height="720" width="1080" data-animation="fade-in" data-nectar-img-src="https://www.apicalgroup.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/ASIMPLE_sfa-1.jpg" src="data:image/svg+xml;charset=utf-8,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D'http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg'%20viewBox%3D'0%200%201080%20720'%2F%3E" alt="" data-nectar-img-srcset="https://www.apicalgroup.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/ASIMPLE_sfa-1.jpg 1080w, https://www.apicalgroup.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/ASIMPLE_sfa-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https://www.apicalgroup.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/ASIMPLE_sfa-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https://www.apicalgroup.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/ASIMPLE_sfa-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https://www.apicalgroup.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/ASIMPLE_sfa-1-900x600.jpg 900w" sizes="(max-width: 1080px) 100vw, 1080px" /> </a> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div></div> </div> <div id="tab-svp" data-tab-icon="" class="wpb_tab ui-tabs-panel wpb_ui-tabs-hide clearfix"> <div class="nectar-split-heading " data-align="default" data-m-align="inherit" data-text-effect="default" data-animation-type="line-reveal-by-space" data-animation-delay="0" data-animation-offset="" data-m-rm-animation="" data-stagger="" data-custom-font-size="false" ><h3 >Shared Value Programme (SVP)</h3></div><div id="fws_674563e97dfce" data-midnight="" data-column-margin="40px" class="wpb_row vc_row-fluid vc_row inner_row vc_row-o-equal-height vc_row-flex vc_row-o-content-top" style="padding-top: 3%; padding-bottom: 3%; "><div class="row-bg-wrap"> <div class="row-bg" ></div> </div><div class="row_col_wrap_12_inner col span_12 left"> <div class="vc_col-sm-6 wpb_column column_container vc_column_container col child_column no-extra-padding inherit_tablet inherit_phone " data-padding-pos="all" data-has-bg-color="false" data-bg-color="" data-bg-opacity="1" data-animation="" data-delay="0" > <div class="vc_column-inner" > <div class="wpb_wrapper"> <div class="wpb_text_column wpb_content_element vc_custom_1617677277892" > <div class="wpb_wrapper"> <p>In partnership with Earthworm Foundation, Proforest and Daemeter, we deliver workshops through our SVP for our priority suppliers on a selection of topics that take into account regional issues specific to the location of suppliers.

Through MPP, we examine our integrated and commercial mills in two aspects – spatial and non-spatial data.</p> <p>Spatial parameters identify risks linked to deforestation rate, peatlands area, forest area status, Key Biodiversity Area, legal protected area and fire hotspots within a 50km radius of a supplying mill, while non-spatial parameters examines suppliers’ certifications such as RSPO and ISPO, NDPE compliance, and its publicly reported information covering social, environmental and legal aspects in the last three years.

Presiden Apical didukung oleh Direktur Keberlanjutan bersama seluruh kepala bisnis, memastikan keberlanjutan terintegrasi dalam unit bisnis dan fungsional, dan tertanam dalam nilai dan inisiatif inti perusahaan.</p> <p>Topik keberlanjutan dibahas pada rapat dewan yang diadakan setiap tiga bulan. Kami juga memiliki tim keberlanjutan yang berdedikasi berbasis di Kuala Lumpur; Malaysia, dan Indonesia; Pekanbaru, Dumai, Medan, Jakarta dan Balikpapan. Tim Keberlanjutan ditugaskan untuk menerapkan dan memantau komitmen kami melalui keterlibatan dan kolaborasi pemangku kepentingan yang konstruktif.</p> <p>Selain itu, kami didukung penuh oleh departemen Sosial, Keamanan, dan Perizinan (SSL) khusus di setiap unit bisnis yang kami miliki, untuk menangani masalah sosial dan perizinan sesuai dengan peraturan nasional serta kebijakan keberlanjutan Apical. Tim juga mengawasi program Tanggung Jawab Sosial Perusahaan (CSR) untuk mendukung penghidupan yang lebih baik di masyarakat setempat.</p> <p>Mencapai tujuan keberlanjutan membutuhkan lebih dari sekadar kolaborasi dengan pemangku kepentingan utama kami. Kolaborasi lintas industri dan perusahaan sejenis juga penting dan karenanya, kami terus mencari dan berpartisipasi dalam kemitraan baru, keanggotaan industri yang relevan, dan skema sertifikasi.</p> <p>Kami berpartisipasi dalam skema keanggotaan dan sertifikasi industri seperti Tropical Forest Alliance 2020, Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO), termasuk P&amp;C Review Taskforce RSPO dan National Interpretation Working Group RSPO Indonesia, International Sustainability and Carbon Certification (ISCC), dan Indonesian Sustainable Palm Oil (ISPO).</p> <h3>Dato' Yeo How</h3> <p>PRESIDEN APICAL GROUP</p> </div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div><div id="hustle-popup-id-5" class="hustle-ui hustle-popup hustle-palette--gray_slate hustle_module_id_5 module_id_5 " data-id="5" data-render-id="0" data-tracking="disabled" role="dialog" aria-modal="true" data-intro="no_animation" data-outro="no_animation" data-overlay-close="1" data-close-delay="false" style="opacity: 0;" ><div data-rocket-location-hash="daa4fecf6c036af1c1ac8233955973b7" class="hustle-popup-mask hustle-optin-mask" aria-hidden="true"></div><div data-rocket-location-hash="3f2f10297d7bc25e4e24e7f21f137048" class="hustle-popup-content"><div data-rocket-location-hash="db0bf9c28a1016e7b4d1784ce7ffe8bc" class="hustle-info hustle-info--compact"><div class="hustle-main-wrapper"><div class="hustle-layout"><button class="hustle-button-icon hustle-button-close has-background"> <span class="hustle-icon-close" aria-hidden="true"></span> <span class="hustle-screen-reader">Close this module</span> </button><div class="hustle-content"><div class="hustle-content-wrap"><div class="hustle-group-content"><p>At Apical Group, our commitment to sustainability stems right from the top. Apical’s President is supported by the Director of Sustainability and various business heads, to ensure sustainability is integrated within business and functional units, and embedded in the company’s core values and initiatives.</p> <p>Sustainability topics are discussed at Board meetings held quarterly. We also have dedicated Sustainability teams based in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, and Pekanbaru, Dumai, Medan, Jakarta and Balikpapan in Indonesia. The Sustainability teams are tasked with implementing and monitoring our commitments through constructive stakeholder engagement and collaboration.</p> <p>In addition, there is also a dedicated Social, Security and Licensing (SSL) department in each refinery we own, to handle social and licensing matters in compliance with national regulations as well as the Apical Sustainability Policy. The team also oversees Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) programmes to support better livelihoods in local communities.</p> <p>Achieving sustainability goals requires more than just collaboration with our key stakeholders. Collaboration across industries and peer companies are also crucial and hence, we constantly look for and participate in new partnerships, relevant industry membership and certification schemes.</p> <p>We participate in industry membership and certification schemes such as the Tropical Forest Alliance 2020, Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO), including the RSPO P&C Review Taskforce and the RSPO Indonesia National Interpretation Working Group, the International Sustainability and Carbon Certification (ISCC), and the Indonesian Sustainable Palm Oil (ISPO).</p> <h3>Dato' Yeo How</h3> <p>APICAL GROUP PRESIDENT</p> </div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div><link rel='stylesheet' id='mailpoet_public-css' href='https://www.apicalgroup.com/wp-content/plugins/mailpoet/assets/dist/css/mailpoet-public.b1f0906e.css?ver=5d27f0ee184b6d2d6854a4e925181fa7' type='text/css' media='all' /> <link rel='stylesheet' id='hustle_icons-css' href='https://www.apicalgroup.com/wp-content/plugins/hustle/assets/hustle-ui/css/hustle-icons.min.css?ver=7.8.5' type='text/css' media='all' /> <link rel='stylesheet' id='hustle_global-css' href='https://www.apicalgroup.com/wp-content/plugins/hustle/assets/hustle-ui/css/hustle-global.min.css?ver=7.8.5' type='text/css' media='all' /> <link rel='stylesheet' id='hustle_info-css' href='https://www.apicalgroup.com/wp-content/plugins/hustle/assets/hustle-ui/css/hustle-info.min.css?ver=7.8.5' type='text/css' media='all' /> <link rel='stylesheet' id='hustle_popup-css' href='https://www.apicalgroup.com/wp-content/plugins/hustle/assets/hustle-ui/css/hustle-popup.min.css?ver=7.8.5' type='text/css' media='all' /> <link data-pagespeed-no-defer data-nowprocket data-wpacu-skip data-no-optimize data-noptimize rel='stylesheet' id='main-styles-non-critical-css' href='https://www.apicalgroup.com/wp-content/themes/apical/css/build/style-non-critical.css?ver=17.0.3' type='text/css' media='all' /> <link data-pagespeed-no-defer data-nowprocket data-wpacu-skip data-no-optimize data-noptimize rel='stylesheet' id='fancyBox-css' href='https://www.apicalgroup.com/wp-content/themes/apical/css/build/plugins/jquery.fancybox.css?ver=3.3.1' type='text/css' media='all' /> <link data-pagespeed-no-defer data-nowprocket data-wpacu-skip data-no-optimize data-noptimize rel='stylesheet' id='nectar-ocm-core-css' href='https://www.apicalgroup.com/wp-content/themes/apical/css/build/off-canvas/core.css?ver=17.0.3' type='text/css' media='all' /> <link data-pagespeed-no-defer data-nowprocket data-wpacu-skip data-no-optimize data-noptimize rel='stylesheet' id='nectar-ocm-slide-out-right-material-css' href='https://www.apicalgroup.com/wp-content/themes/apical/css/build/off-canvas/slide-out-right-material.css?ver=17.0.3' type='text/css' media='all' /> <link data-pagespeed-no-defer data-nowprocket data-wpacu-skip data-no-optimize data-noptimize rel='stylesheet' id='nectar-ocm-slide-out-right-hover-css' href='https://www.apicalgroup.com/wp-content/themes/apical/css/build/off-canvas/slide-out-right-hover.css?ver=17.0.3' type='text/css' media='all' /> <link rel='stylesheet' id='rs-plugin-settings-css' href='https://www.apicalgroup.com/wp-content/mu-plugins/revslider/public/assets/css/rs6.css?ver=6.5.8' type='text/css' media='all' /> <style id='rs-plugin-settings-inline-css' type='text/css'> #rs-demo-id {} </style> <script type="text/javascript" src="https://www.apicalgroup.com/wp-content/mu-plugins/revslider/public/assets/js/rbtools.min.js?ver=6.5.8" defer async id="tp-tools-js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="https://www.apicalgroup.com/wp-content/mu-plugins/revslider/public/assets/js/rs6.min.js?ver=6.5.8" defer async id="revmin-js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="https://www.apicalgroup.com/wp-content/plugins/image-map-pro-wordpress/js/image-map-pro.min.js?ver=5.3.2" id="image-map-pro-dist-js-js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" id="hui_scripts-js-extra"> /* <![CDATA[ */ var hustleSettings = {"mobile_breakpoint":"782"};
