As a PSCI-approved audit firm, Arcadis has completed more than one hundred EHS and social audits for the pharmaceutical industry in accordance with PSCI Principles and protocols, helping pharmaceutical suppliers in the APAC region comply with the latest policies and regulations.
PSCI Introduction
The Pharmaceutical Supply Chain Initiative (PSCI) is the leading association for pharmaceutical and healthcare supply chain companies that share a vision to achieve better social, economic, and environmental outcomes for all those involved in the pharmaceutical supply chain. This vision includes improved conditions for workers, safer processes and facilities, economic development, and a cleaner environment for local communities.
PSCI has established the Pharmaceutical Industry Principles for Responsible Supply Chain Management ("PSCI Principles"), which address five key areas of responsible business practices throughout the pharmaceutical and healthcare industry's supply chain:
- Ethics
- Human Rights & Labor
- Health & Safety
- Environment
- Management Systems
PSCI recognizes that its members have extensive and diverse supply bases. A shared audit approach benefits both PSCI members and suppliers, enhancing supply chain risk management and ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements and the PSCI Principles. This approach ultimately aims to improve the reliability of supply to patients.
How We Conduct PSCI Audit
The pharmaceutical sector operates within an increasingly uncertain and complex landscape. Fundamental strategic choices are necessary to retain the license-to-operate, maintain a competitive edge, and comply with ESG regulations and climate change policies.

All PSCI Audits are conducted in accordance with PSCI Principles and protocols, helping pharmaceutical suppliers in the APAC region comply with the latest policies and regulations.
The audit process consists of three phases: pre-audit, onsite, and post-audit activities.
In addition, Arcadis provides specialized audit and support in areas such as process safety management, industrial hygiene, machine safety, control of pharmaceuticals in wastewater (P.I.E), and dust explosion hazards.
