Exhibit 1.01
Conflict Minerals Report
This Conflict Minerals Report for Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc.
(“Thermo Fisher,” the “Company,” “we,” or “our”) is provided in accordance with Rule 13p-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Rule 13p-1”) for the reporting period from January 1, 2014
to December 31, 2014.
Rule 13p-1 is applicable to SEC issuers that manufacture products where “conflict minerals are necessary
to the functionality or production” of the product.1 This regulation requires SEC registrants to disclose annually through the Form SD whether certain minerals (namely tin, tungsten,
tantalum, and gold, collectively known as “Conflict Minerals” or “3TG”) originated in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (“DRC”) or an adjoining country (collectively referred to as the “Covered Countries”).
In certain circumstances, this regulation also requires companies to furnish annually to the SEC a public report outlining the due diligence exercised by the company to determine the source and origin of 3TGs in the product(s) they produce.2
In accordance with this regulation, we designed and executed a supply chain due
diligence process in accordance with Annex I of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development’s (“OECD”) Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas
(“OECD Guidance”).3

MEASURES TAKEN TO MEET OECD DUE DILIGENCE GUIDANCE |
Design of Measures to Meet
OECD Guidance
Our conflict minerals due diligence framework has been designed to be in line with the steps of the OECD Guidance,
as applicable for downstream companies (as the term is defined in the OECD Guidance), in all material respects. In conformity to the OECD Guidance’s five step process, we designed our due diligence measures to:
| |
1. |
Establish strong Company management systems for conflict minerals supply chain due diligence and reporting compliance; |
| |
2. |
Identify and assess conflict minerals risks in our supply chain; |
| |
3. |
Design and implement strategies to respond to conflict minerals risks identified; |
| |
4. |
Contribute to independent third-party audits of the due diligence practices of conflict minerals smelters and refiners by participating in industry organizations; and |
| |
5. |
Report on our conflict minerals supply chain due diligence activities, as required by Rule 13p-1. |
Measures Performed to Meet OECD Guidance
As our reasonable country of original inquiry (“RCOI”) indicated that some of our products contain 3TG minerals sourced from the
Covered Countries, we performed due diligence measures in line with the five steps outlined above. This section outlines what each step of our process covered, followed by the procedures we performed to address these requirements.
Step One: Establish strong Company management systems for conflict minerals supply chain due diligence and reporting compliance
In order to establish strong management systems for conflict minerals, we first established a cross functional project stakeholder group with
representation from the necessary internal departments. This group was led by our Legal and Sourcing departments, and we had a dedicated Project Manager for this process. We engaged a major international accounting firm to assist the Company in
designing and implementing our conflict minerals program. We also engaged Assent Compliance to assist with the implementation of the Company’s conflict minerals program.
We developed a conflict minerals statement, which can be viewed on our public website, and established a project framework captured in our
Conflict Minerals Standard Operating Procedure.
We designed and distributed a series of internal training materials and conducted
training sessions to educate affected internal employees on our conflict minerals process and how to communicate with external parties on this subject.
Conflict minerals language was added to our standard supplier contracts and our Supplier Code of Conduct to support our conflict minerals
program. We invited our suppliers to attend a live Q&A webinar session. The recorded session and concurrent written presentation was distributed to all in-scope suppliers.
Step Two: Identify and assess conflict minerals risks in our supply chain
In accordance with improving our supply chain due diligence for this reporting year, we refined our scoping process to identify a more optimal
subset of our supply base. This was accomplished by
enlisting our product commodity experts who were tasked to assign 3TG risk levels for each product commodity classification in their area of expertise. This process resulted in 7,865 in-scope
suppliers representing approximately 64% of our manufactured spend.
Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry
(“RCOI”)
Acting on the Company’s behalf, Assent Compliance conducted the supplier survey portion of the RCOI. The
survey employed the Conflict Minerals Reporting Template, version 3.02 (the “CMRT”), developed by the Electronic Industry Citizenship Coalition® and The Global e-Sustainability
Initiative. The CMRT was developed to facilitate general disclosures and information regarding smelters that provide materials to the supplier. It includes questions regarding the supplier’s conflict-free sourcing policy, the engagement process
with its direct suppliers, and identification of the smelters used by the supplier. Non-responsive suppliers were contacted a minimum of three times by the Assent Compliance Manager and then were also contacted by the Assent Compliance Supply Chain
team in one on one communications. This included two to three follow ups from the supply chain team. After three incidents of non-responsiveness, suppliers were then contacted via email and phone by the Company’s procurement team members as an
escalation to encourage their response via CMRT forms to Assent Compliance.
Assent Compliance’s communications include training and
education on the completion of the CMRT form as well as access to a Supplier Resource Center designed to alleviate any remaining confusion for suppliers. All communications were monitored and tracked in Assent’s system for future reporting and
transparency.
Due Diligence Performed
A notable addition to our program is automated data validation on all submitted CMRTs. The goal of data validation is to increase the accuracy
of submissions and identify any contradictory answers in the CMRT. All submitted forms are accepted and classified as valid or incomplete so that data is still retained. Suppliers are contacted in regards to incomplete forms and are encouraged to
resubmit a valid form.
We received survey responses from approximately one-half of our in-scope suppliers. Approximately 95 percent of
our responding suppliers indicated that they either did not use 3TG or were not sourcing 3TG from the Covered Countries.
Some of the
responses provided by suppliers to the CMRT included the names of facilities listed by the suppliers as smelters or refiners. Other than to the extent of the communication outlined in Step Four, we do not typically have a direct relationship with
3TG smelters and refiners and do not perform or direct audits of these entities within our supply chain. Assent Compliance compared these facilities listed in the responses to the list of smelters maintained by the Conflict-Free Sourcing Initiative
(“CFSI”), the United States Department of Commerce and the London Bouillon Market Association and, if a supplier indicated that the facility was certified as “Conflict-Free,” confirmed that the name was listed by CFSI. We have
validated 281 smelters or refiners as listed by our suppliers and are working to validate the additional smelter/refiner entries from the submitted CMRTs. For the steps to be taken in regard to the rest of these smelters, please see our involvement
in the Conflict-Free Sourcing Initiative outlined in Step Four. We have included the current list of valid smelters disclosed to us by our suppliers in Exhibit 1 of this report.
Step Three: Design and implement strategies to respond to conflict minerals risks identified
From our perspective at this stage in conflict minerals compliance, it appears that many of our suppliers are in the middle of their process
and do not have answers beyond “unknown”. We are helping suppliers receive training and education to better their processes. Evaluating and tracking the strength of their program helps us adhere to the OECD Due Diligence Guidelines and can
assist in making key risk mitigation decisions as the program progresses.
We evaluated the strengths of each of our suppliers’
programs based on a series of criteria. A supplier’s willingness to improve their program will be tracked and incorporated into our future conflict minerals program, including procurement decisions.
Step Four: Contribute to independent third-party audits of the due diligence practices of
conflict minerals smelters and refiners by participating in industry organizations
As a member of the CFSI, we leveraged the due
diligence conducted on smelters and refiners by the CFSI’s Conflict-Free Smelter Program (the “CFSP”). The CFSP independently audits the source, including mines of origin and chain of custody of the 3TG minerals used by smelters and
refiners that agree to participate in the CFSP. The smelters and refiners that are found to be CFSP compliant are those for which the independent audit has verified that the smelter’s or refiner’s conflict minerals originated from conflict
free mines in the Covered Countries.
In order to further the efforts of the CFSI, we are actively participating on the data collection
team that is revising and testing future conflict minerals survey templates. We are also collaborating with the CFSI on many levels, including providing the CFSI with smelter information and communicating directly with the facilities that the CFSI
is actively pursuing.
Step Five: Report on our conflict minerals supply chain due diligence activities, as required by Rule 13p-1
Based on the results of the supplier survey and associated supplier due diligence, a Form SD and this Conflict Minerals Report were
prepared. This document has been prepared to describe the steps of our conflict minerals process and has been reviewed and approved by executive management.
To facilitate other companies in their reporting, we also reported the results of our RCOI and supplier due diligence to our customers who
solicited a conflict minerals response using the conflict minerals survey template version 3.02.
Report of Independent Private
Sector Auditor
Pursuant to the SEC Rule, we were not required to have an independent private sector audit for this report.
However, we have worked with our external auditors to ensure that our process is auditable in future years. We will continue to develop and build upon our due diligence measures for the current year to increase supplier response and further
understand the smelters within our supply chain.
| III. |
FUTURE DUE DILIGENCE CONSIDERATIONS |
In order to improve on our supply chain due
diligence practices from the current year, we plan to incorporate the following measures, among others, for compliance in future years:
| |
• |
|
Re-examine our scoping approach to ensure that we have surveyed the optimal subset of our supply base |
| |
• |
|
Implement a risk rating smelter system and collaborate with our supply base to mitigate the highest risk smelters in our supply chain |
| |
• |
|
Implement program enhancements that provide additional tools and resources for our international suppliers and suppliers with less sophisticated programs |
| |
• |
|
Strengthen our supplier due diligence by surveying more frequently and expanding supplier training opportunities |
| IV. |
DUE DILIGENCE RESULTS |
After conducting the due diligence described in this report, we have found that none of our
suppliers that source from the Covered Countries have reason to believe that they benefited or financed armed conflict in the Covered Countries.
As of April 17, 2015, 210 of the smelters identified by our supply base are verified or progressing towards a conflict free validation per
the CFSI. An additional 71 smelters are known smelters per the CFSI. Finally, we are working on validating whether additional smelters identified by our supply base are actual smelters as opposed to being simply another tier of supplier or
non-existent company. Please note that smelter information provided by our suppliers has not been directly tied to our products as we received company level disclosures.
Based on the smelter lists provided by suppliers via the CMRTs, we are aware that there are 20 smelters sourcing from the Covered Countries and
which have also been certified as conflict-free. Many suppliers are still unable to provide the smelters or refiners used for materials supplied to us. Furthermore, many of the responses provided at the company or business unit level indicated an
“unknown” status in terms of determining the origin of 3TGs.
