Building an ESG-Compliant System Aligned with RBA Standards

Our company is establishing a framework that adheres to Responsible Business Alliance (RBA) standards and aligns with ESG principles. At Foreshot, our core mission is to embed sustainability within the company and across its supply chain. To demonstrate our commitment and ensure compliance with RBA requirements, we actively conduct RBA training programs to enhance employee understanding and awareness. At the same time, we prepare social responsibility reports, continuously identifying issues and implementing improvements based on RBA guidelines.

Corporate Responsibility Requirements

As global supply chains place increasing emphasis on ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance), leading international telecommunications and electronics brands now require not only technological excellence but also strict compliance with the Responsible Business Alliance (RBA) standards as a key criterion in supplier selection. Foreshot Vietnam (FORE SHOT VIETNAM COMPANY LIMITED), as a critical production hub serving global customers, is committed to creating a manufacturing environment that meets the highest international ethical standards, fulfilling stringent customer expectations for social responsibility and sustainable development within the supply chain.

Operational and Compliance Challenges

While striving for large-scale production and precision manufacturing, Foreshot Vietnam faces several critical compliance challenges:

• Alignment with International Standards: The RBA Code of Conduct encompasses five major areas—Labor, Health & Safety, Environment, Ethics, and Management Systems—with complex requirements and rigorous audit standards.
• Quantifiable Social Responsibility Assessment: In a complex manufacturing environment, management indicators must be clearly defined to pass stringent third-party on-site verification audits (VAP).
• Zero Priority Findings Objective: Customers demand zero “Priority Findings” during audits, requiring robust preventive monitoring mechanisms and mature management systems.

Foreshot’s Solutions

To meet RBA’s high standards, Foreshot Vietnam has implemented an integrated management solution, aligning organizational systems and production practices with international benchmarks:

• Establishing a Dedicated ESG Management System: Formed a cross-functional audit team and integrated RBA standards throughout the entire production process—from mold development and injection molding to assembly—ensuring compliance with social responsibility requirements.
• Risk Prevention and Internal Audits: Conducted multiple simulated internal audits prior to official assessments, focusing on workplace safety, chemical management, and labor rights to eliminate potential risks in advance.
• Smart Data Traceability: Leveraged MES (Manufacturing Execution System) and data tracking technologies to ensure full traceability of production processes, while incorporating environmental protection metrics into digital monitoring for data-driven compliance management.
• Employee Rights and Health Training: Delivered systematic training programs to strengthen employee safety awareness and human rights protection, creating a healthy and secure Industry 4.0 smart factory environment.
