Independent supplier procurement

Our board adopted a Supplier Procurement and Quotation Policy on 11 November 2026. We operate independently, and no supplier is exclusive, guaranteed orders or given automatic preference. In summary:

  • The applicant's preferred wig type, fit, comfort and practical needs come first, and are confirmed before we ask for quotes.
  • Every supplier receives the same specification, and we ordinarily obtain at least two written quotes. A single quote is accepted only with recorded reasons and independent approval.
  • Quotes are checked for compliance with the applicant's needs, then compared on total price. We ordinarily choose the lowest-priced compliant quote, and record our reasons if we choose another.
  • Suppliers are vetted and reviewed at least once a year.
  • Purchases are approved by independent, non-conflicted directors, and larger purchases need a second approval.
  • We pay only from cleared, designated funds, ordinarily directly to the supplier after we receive a valid invoice.
  • We keep procurement records for at least seven years.

Conflicts of interest

Our board adopted a Conflict of Interest Policy on 11 November 2026. Directors, volunteers and assessors must declare actual, potential and perceived conflicts. Anyone with a conflict steps out of the related assessment, discussion and approval. We keep a conflict of interest register and a separate related-party transactions register, and an independent director reviews both every quarter.
