Controls guidance

Use the approved supplier list

Apply the organisation's approved-supplier decision without presenting it as a universal endorsement.

FOR
Procurement, Requester, Auditor
OUTCOME
Use RAQOZ to apply the organisation's approved-supplier decision without presenting it as a universal endorsement.

Before you begin

  • Access to the relevant purchase, supplier or policy record.
  • Enough source evidence to review the result without relying on copied summaries.

Guidance

  1. 1

    Check the supplier's status for the relevant organisation and purchasing context.

  2. 2

    Confirm required qualification evidence remains current for the intended purchase.

  3. 3

    Use the configured exception path when a non-approved supplier is genuinely required.

  4. 4

    Treat list status as an internal control decision, not a public guarantee.

Evidence RAQOZ retains

  • Organisation-specific supplier status
  • Supporting qualification record
  • Exception where applicable

Common issues

Evidence is marked missing.

Open the mapped source record and either add the legitimately missing evidence or preserve the exception. Do not substitute an unsupported conclusion.

A control result must be allowed exceptionally.

Request a bounded, independent waiver or override where supported; keep the original evaluation and rationale connected.
