Description of the Company’s Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry
As described in this Report, we have determined that the following Conflict Minerals, namely gold, tantalum, tin and tungsten, are necessary to the functionality or production of products contracted to be manufactured by us during the calendar year 2018. As a result, we conducted in good faith a reasonable country of origin inquiry (“RCOI”) reasonably designed to determine if any of these Conflict Minerals originated in the Covered Countries and whether any of the Conflict Minerals may be from recycled or scrap sources. Our supply chain is complex, and there are many third parties in the supply chain between the ultimate manufacturer of the Covered Products and the original sources of Conflict Minerals. The Company does not directly purchase Conflict Minerals from mines, smelters or refiners. Therefore, the Company must rely on suppliers to provide information regarding the country of origin of Conflict Minerals that are included in the Covered Products. In designing our
RCOI, we employed a combination of measures to determine whether the Conflict Minerals in our Covered Products originated from the Covered countries and determined that the Company would survey each of its Tier 1 suppliers.
As such, our RCOI primarily consisted of utilizing the Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (“CMRT”) prepared by the Responsible Minerals Initiative, an initiative of the Responsible Business Alliance and Global eSustainability Initiative for Tier 1 suppliers of our devices in 2018. Only CMRT’s 5.01 or higher were accepted. Responses were reviewed for completeness, reasonableness and consistency, and we routinely followed up for any corrections and clarifications. During 2018, we contracted with Source 44 LLC dba Source Intelligence, a third party vendor to coordinate the efforts of receiving and analyzing the CMRTs. Through Source Intelligence’s database we received detailed information regarding the smelters/refiners and associated mine countries reported in our supply chain.
We submitted this template to 8 (8) Tier 1 suppliers and received 100% response rate. Of these responding suppliers, 86% indicated one or more of the Conflict Minerals are necessary to the functionality or production of the products supplied.
Description of the Company’s Due Diligence Process
Based on this information, we performed additional due diligence on the source and chain of custody of these Conflict Minerals pursuant to the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (“OECD”) Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas (“Framework”) to determine if the Conflict Minerals that may have originated in the Covered Countries benefited armed groups.
The Company's due diligence measures have been designed to conform to the framework in the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chain of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High Risk Areas: Second Edition, including the related supplements on gold, tin, tantalum and tungsten (the "OECD Guidance"). The OECD Guidance is an internationally recognized due diligence framework.
In accordance with the five-step OECD Guidance, the design of our due diligence includes, but is not limited to, the following five steps: (i) establishment of strong company management systems, (ii) identification and assessment of risks in the supply chain, (iii) designing and implementing a strategy to respond to identified risks, (iv) carrying out an independent third-party audit of smelter/refiner’s due diligence practices and (v) reporting on supply chain due diligence. A description of certain activities undertaken by us in respect of each of the five steps of the OECD Guidance is described below.
1. | Establishment of Strong Company Management Systems |
We have completed a number of steps to establish a management system for addressing the sourcing of Conflict Minerals in our Covered Products. These actions include:
| a. | Adopt and Commit to a Supply Chain Policy for Conflict Minerals: Our Conflict Minerals Policy is available at https://www.quicklogic.com/support/conflict-minerals-policy/. Our Policy underscores the Company’s commitment to ethical business conduct and the responsible sourcing of minerals and to working with our suppliers to ensure compliance with SEC regulations. |
Our Policy notes the Company’s support of the industry-wide efforts the Responsible Business Alliance and Global eSustainability Initiative are making to address responsible sourcing of minerals through the development of the Responsible Minerals Initiative. Our policy discusses the Company’s adoption and use of the industry standard CMRT created by the Responsible Business Alliance and Global eSustainability Initiative to collect sourcing information related to conflict minerals as an element of our reasonable country of origin inquiry to verify the responsible sourcing of materials and to support compliance with SEC regulations. Listed below under the Findings are the results of the sourcing of minerals provided by the Tier 1 suppliers.
| and appropriate follow-up measures to be taken with our suppliers. The Vice President of Operations reports on the status of the Company’s supply chain due diligence at regularly scheduled meetings of the Company’s Board of Directors. |
| c. | Controls and Transparency to Support Supply Chain Diligence: We use the CMRT to identify the smelters and refiners that are in the supply chain of each of our suppliers. We review and compare this list to the list of smelters and refiners identified by the Responsible Minerals Initiative to be active in the Conflict Free Smelter Program. This enables us to identify the smelters and refiners that have been determined to be conflict-free and those that are actively progressing towards an audit to determine their status. We use Source Intelligence's database to further verify the smelter/refiners sourcing information. We have determined that this approach represents the most reasonable effort we can make to determine whether the minerals used in the production of our Covered Products are conflict-free. |
| d. | Supplier Engagement: We are dependent upon our suppliers to manufacture the Covered Products. We continue to work with our suppliers to support their efforts to identify the sources and status of the Conflict Minerals used in our Covered Products and to encourage each smelter and refiner in our supply chain to become or continue as an active participant in the Conflict Free Smelter Program. We continue to actively engage with our suppliers to strengthen our relationship with them and we have communicated to them our commitment to sourcing Conflict Minerals in a manner that does not benefit armed groups in the Covered Countries. |
| e. | Grievance Mechanism: We have grievance mechanisms in place that enable employees and suppliers to report violations of the Company’s policies. We have a compliance hotline which is operated by an independent company that may be called at any time to report grievances and invite individuals with grievances to bring these matters to the attention of the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors by written correspondence on a confidential basis. We also employ an email address by which matters may be brought at any time to the attention of our Conflict Minerals Team by sending an email to conflictminerals@quicklogic.com. |
2. | Identification and Assessment of Risks in the Supply Chain |
Because of our position within our supply chain, it is difficult to identify actors upstream from our Tier 1 suppliers. As discussed above, we identified Tier 1 suppliers and we have relied upon them to provide us with the necessary information about the source of Conflict Minerals contained in the products they manufacture on our behalf. Our suppliers are similarly reliant upon information provided by their suppliers to provide information regarding the country of origin of Conflict Minerals that are included in the Covered Products.
We requested each of them to complete the CMRT and review the sourcing information provided in response to our requests for accuracy and completeness. In the event we find the responses to the Reporting Template unclear or incomplete, we contact the supplier in question for additional information and clarification. In some cases, we may contact the smelter or refiner directly to obtain information. We intend to contact each of our suppliers at least once every six months to check on the status of their continuing due diligence and to obtain updated information. We record all information obtained from the CMRT to identify the smelters and refiners in our supply chain. The list of the smelters and refiners in our supply chain are verified against the lists compiled by the Responsible Minerals Initiative, TI-CMC, LBMA and RJC to determine which smelters and refiners have been determined to be compliant with the Responsible Minerals Assurance Process assessment protocols and certifications.
3. | Designing and Implementing a Strategy to Respond to Identified Risks |
In response to this risk assessment, the Company has an approved risk management plan which is implemented, managed and monitored through the above-described Conflict Minerals Team under the oversight of our Board of Directors. Any identified potential risks or quality control flags raised during the evaluation of supplier responses are noted on the Source Intelligence platform and reviewed by the team. We support the continued efforts of the Responsible Minerals Initiative to complete the audits of smelters that have agreed to date to participate in the Responsible Minerals Assurance Process and to encourage other identified smelters to become participants.
As a continuing part of our risk management plan, we have communicated our commitment to the use of conflict-free minerals in the manufacture of our Covered Products and our expectation that the manufacture of our Covered Products will be conflict-free.
4. | Carrying Out Independent Third-Party Audit of Supply Chain Due Diligence at Identified Points in the Supply Chain |
We do not have a direct business relationship with any smelters or refiners in our supply chain and, as a result, we do not directly conduct or request audits. Instead, we support the development and implementation of independent third party audits of smelters by encouraging our suppliers to purchase materials from audited, conflict-free smelters and determine whether the smelters that were used to process these minerals were validated as conflict-free as part of the Responsible Minerals Assurance Process. We monitor smelters or refiners certification status with Source Intelligence and the Responsible Minerals Initiative.
5. | Reporting on Supply Chain Due Diligence |
In 2019, we publicly filed the Form SD and this Report with the SEC, and a copy of this Report and the Form SD are publicly available at http://ir.quicklogic.com/sec.cfm.
This Report includes information about the RCOI methodology utilized by the Company, the design of our due diligence process in conformance with the OECD Guidelines, the list of known smelters utilized in our supply chain identified in our due diligence process and a description of our products that incorporate conflict minerals necessary to the functionality or production of such products.
Findings
Based on the information that was provided by the Company’s Tier 1 suppliers and otherwise obtained through the due diligence process, the Company believes that, to the extent reasonably determinable by the Company, the facilities that were used to process the Conflict Minerals contained in the Covered Products include the smelters and refiners listed below. All smelters have received a “conflict free” designation by the Responsible Minerals Initiative’s Responsible Minerals Assurance Process as of May 21, 2019. There is an indication of DRC sourcing for 52 smelters/refiners used.
