Ziraat Katılım has developed the Sustainable Supply Chain Policy to ensure the effective management of the supply chain established with third-party companies in meeting the needs for goods and services at the Headquarters and branches.
As part of its assessment process, the Bank carefully analyzes potential suppliers and the advantages they offer, taking into account the specific requirements, quantity, and characteristics of each purchase request received from its units and branches. Additionally, the Bank conducts thorough pre-supply assessments to optimize the benefits and ensure adherence to the expenditure budget. The Bank prioritizes adding value to the supply chain by establishing long-term strategic partnerships with suppliers.
The first stage of the Bank’s procurement assessment process involves determining whether the product or service needed can be procured from the existing supplier pool. If not, or in cases where it is decided to be procured from a new supplier, market research is conducted/outsourced by taking into consideration the opinions of the requester and/or the Demand Center. Suppliers that meet the specified criteria are chosen based on the nature of the needs and included in the supplier pool.
