Due diligence has moved from voluntary commitment to governed obligation. Regulators, investors, customers and communities now expect organisations not just to conduct due diligence on suppliers at selection, but to manage them throughout the relationship lifecycle – systematically, documentably and in a way that can be independently verified.
SPK DDMS2000:2026 defines what that management system looks like – from risk assessment and strategy to operational controls, performance monitoring, reporting and continuous improvement – in a single, integrated, certifiable framework.
“Speeki Engage® gives organisations a purpose-built platform to implement, document and maintain compliance with SPK DDMS2000:2026 – with the option of independent certification when you are ready.”
Scott LaneCEO and Founder, and Lead Auditor
Why we built it
The first certifiable whole-of-programme standard
Published by Speeki and broadly aligned with ISO's Harmonised Structure, SPK DDMS2000:2026 gives organisations a requirements-based framework for establishing, documenting, governing and continuously improving a due diligence management system across the company.
Most companies already carry out some form of due diligence, but it is often unstructured, ungoverned and uncontrolled. SPK DDMS2000 provides the structure, the governance model and the controls to manage and leverage it.
See it in action
How does the technology help implement the standard?
Speeki Engage® gives you a structured way to document your due diligence management system.
Why a standard
Why does due diligence need an actual standard?
Anti-bribery, anti-money laundering, forced labour, sanctions, human rights and environmental law all lean on due diligence as their central mechanism – yet none defines with precision what a company actually has to do to satisfy it.
Into that vacuum, organisations built whatever was cheapest and fastest to defend:
Self-assessment questionnaires
A counterparty filling out a questionnaire about itself.
Screening subscriptions
A database check that decides nothing about who is competent to look or how deep to look.
Scoring matrices
A score that quietly buries the one finding that mattered.
How it works
How Speeki Engage® manages your SPK DDMS2000 programme
Every record, mapped to the standard
Engage® is structured around the requirements of SPK DDMS2000:2026. Every record is timestamped, attributed, version-controlled and retrievable – a complete, section-mapped evidence base.
Always up to date
Every governance structure is documented and every operational control traceable – continuously.
Your auditors work in the same platform
If you choose certification, the Speeki Sentinel™ assessment is conducted within the platform – a shared, real-time view of where your management system stands.
A free standard, free to manage
SPK DDMS2000:2026 is a free standard, and using Speeki Engage® to manage and document it is also free.
From phrase to proof
Without a standard, “we did due diligence” is a phrase. With one, it is a claim someone can verify.
A standard doesn't remove your judgement about your own risk appetite – it makes that judgement a real, accountable decision.
