McKinsey’s Third Party Code of Conduct establishes the principles that define how the firm works with Third Parties and builds and maintains trust throughout its value chain. It reflects the same standards of excellence, integrity, and respect that McKinsey upholds and expects from those who work with the firm.
Our Third Party Code of Conduct
McKinsey is committed to the highest standards of integrity, responsibility, and compliance, and expects all Third Parties engaged in providing products and services to McKinsey to uphold the same principles. Third Parties must comply with the principles of this Code and all applicable laws, rules, and regulations. Where Third Parties maintain their own codes of conduct, such standards must be consistent with or equivalent to the principles set out in this Code, and they are expected to apply equivalent standards throughout their own supply chains.
By continuing to do business with McKinsey, Third Parties acknowledge, accept, and attest to their adherence to this Third Party Code of Conduct or to equivalent standards.
Do the right thing
Lead with integrity in business practices, comply with laws and regulations, promptly report potential violations, and prohibit retaliation.
Use technology and data responsibly
Protect privacy and confidential assets and information and use technology assets ethically.
Respect one another
Foster a safe, inclusive, and respectful workplace that is free from harassment and discrimination and upholds human rights and dignity for all.
Be conscious of our impact in our communities
Champion inclusive procurement and strive for environmental sustainability.
McKinsey’s sustainable procurement strategy supports social responsibility within the firm while driving high standards of environmental and social responsibility among Third Parties and more broadly across business and society. It is one of the many ways McKinsey works with people and organizations beyond the firm to practice and promote social responsibility.
