Background

This Specialized Disclosure Report on Form SD of Allegion plc ("Allegion," "we," "us" or the “Company") for the year ended December 31, 2019 was prepared to comply with the final rule regarding sourcing of conflict minerals under Section 1502 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act ("the Dodd-Frank Act"). Rule 13p-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), adopted pursuant to Section 1502 the Dodd-Frank Act, was approved by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on August 22, 2012, and imposes annual reporting requirements on SEC reporting companies relating to the presence of conflict minerals in the products that they manufacture or contract to manufacture.

The rule on conflict minerals focuses on the Democratic Republic of the Congo ("DRC") and its adjoining countries (the “Covered Countries”), a central African region with vast mineral wealth, including reserves of conflict minerals.

Covered Minerals

The minerals covered by the SEC rules go by the name conflict minerals but are also referred to as 3TGs, an abbreviation for Tin, Tantalum, Tungsten and Gold. These conflict minerals are used in many manufactured goods across many industries, including the aerospace, appliances, automotive, electronics, jewelry, medical and tool and die industries. The term “conflict mineral” is defined in Section 1502(e)(4) of the Dodd-Frank Act as (A) columbite-tantalite, also known as coltan (the metal ore from which tantalum is extracted); cassiterite (the metal ore from which tin is extracted); gold; wolframite (the metal ore from which tungsten is extracted); or certain of their derivatives (currently limited to tin, tantalum and tungsten); or (B) any other minerals or derivatives designated by the Secretary of State in the future, although no additional minerals or derivatives have been so designated at this time.

Conflict Minerals Program Overview

As a purchaser, we are many layers removed from the mining of the conflict minerals, and we do not directly purchase raw ore or unrefined conflict minerals. We rely on collaboration with our supplier base by building awareness through training and provide support in order to identify the downstream supply chain and the originating smelter(s)/refiner(s) for the conflict minerals that ultimately are found in our products.

This effort is both challenging and demanding, as many of our suppliers are private entities that are not directly affected by the Rule, and many times do not have the financial and human resources to comply with the requests. Furthermore, our suppliers have their own supply chains and need to collaborate with their own downstream suppliers in order provide transparency of the end-to-end supply chain and to identify the smelter(s)/refiner(s).

Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry

We conducted a reasonable country of origin inquiry (“RCOI”) regarding the conflict minerals by utilizing the conflict minerals reporting template (“CMRT”) provided by the Responsible Business Alliance’s (RBA) and Global e-Sustainability Initiative (“GeSI”) through its Responsible Minerals Initiative (RMI). Our RCOI was designed to determine whether any of the conflict minerals in our products manufactured in 2019, originated in the Covered Countries or were from recycled or scrap sources by asking our suppliers to identify the smelters and refiners of the conflict minerals contained in the products or raw materials that they supply to us. We reviewed the information our suppliers provided and compared it to publicly available information about such smelters and refiners.

OECD Due Diligence Framework in Practice

We designed our due diligence measures to conform, in all material respects, with the framework in The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (“OECD”) Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas (Second Edition) and the related Supplements for gold, tin, tantalum and tungsten (“the Guidance”). The Guidance identifies five steps for due diligence that should be implemented and provides guidance as to how to achieve each step. We developed our due diligence process to address each of these five steps, namely:


1.	Establishing strong company management systems regarding conflict minerals;


2.	Identifying and assessing risks in our supply chain;


3.	Designing and implementing a strategy to respond to identified risks in our supply chain;


4.	Utilizing independent third-party audits of supply chain diligence; and


5.	Publicly reporting on our supply chain due diligence.

The OECD Guidance specifies that the requirements for compliance should reflect a company’s position in the supply chain. In particular, the OECD Guidance states that the implementation of due diligence should be tailored to a company’s activities and relationships and that the nature and extent of due diligence may vary based on a company’s size, products, relationships with suppliers and other factors. Due to practical difficulties associated with supply chain complexities, the OECD Guidance advises that downstream companies exercise due diligence primarily by establishing controls over their immediate suppliers. Accordingly, we rely primarily on our strategic, direct suppliers to provide information with respect to the origin of the conflict minerals contained in the components and materials supplied to us.

STEP 1: Establish Strong Company Management Systems

Company Conflict Minerals Policy

Our policy is to support the legitimate businesses within the Covered Countries, and we expect our suppliers to source conflict minerals responsibly by establishing conflict minerals compliance policies and a due diligence process to support their conflict minerals data collection efforts.

To view our complete Conflict Minerals Policy, visit our webpage located at:

http://investor.allegion.com/company-profile/conflict-minerals.

Internal Team

Our conflict minerals program is designed to conform to the internationally recognized due diligence framework of the OECD. The framework includes standard operating procedures, supplier risk segmentation, established processes for RCOI, due diligence and escalation, training and communication, as well as, an external and internal website containing our Conflict Minerals Policy with information about the regulation, email contact information, and the latest Form SD filing.

We have a global supply chain risk management team that reports directly to the Vice President of Global Procurement and is responsible to the Corporate Secretary’s Office for the Form SD report creation, and focuses on driving the compliance efforts of the conflict minerals program, executing the procedures, and working closely with a third party regulatory compliance consulting firm to advance the maturity and sophistication of the program, and further strengthening the conformance with the OECD Guidance and standards. Our continued conflict minerals program maturity progress can be attributed to several successfully executed initiatives:


•	Attendance at conferences that include topics related to conflict minerals;


•	Advancing internal knowledge through continuing education;


•	Following any updates to relevant regulations; and


•	Third party software solution and consulting services


◦	We leveraged this software to upload related legacy documents for retention purposes and will retain the records for a period of 5 years per the OECD Guidelines


◦	We are leveraging this software to offer training and updates for suppliers, and


◦	We utilize their resources for benchmarking purposes.

We collaborate closely with our suppliers by developing long lasting relationships. Our supplier development team has the responsibility to qualify and develop our suppliers. This team conducts an annual review of the “Global Supplier Requirements Manual” that lays out the expectations of compliance with local, state and national regulations, including the Rule.

Further, we have a dedicated commodity team who is responsible for maintaining relationships with suppliers within their commodities, and we maintain an Approved Supplier List that helps preserve the stability and longevity of the supplier relationships. Our supplier contracts contain a regulatory clause that explicitly lays out the expectations with the suppliers to comply with laws, including the Rule, and allows our company to audit and inspect data, records and other materials to evidence conflict minerals use and controls.

Per the OECD Guidelines, we retain and maintain our records for a period of five years on a company share drive system, along with a backup copy on an external hard drive. These legacy records will be loaded into our new third-party software system, Assent Compliance Manager system (“ACM System”) and going forward we will leverage this system for record keeping purposes.

Grievance Mechanism

Allegion has established a Helpline for ethical and compliance situations as part of our continuing efforts to ensure lawful and ethical behavior and to maintain compliance with Allegion’s Code of Conduct and Ethical Sourcing Policies & Guidelines.

This is a confidential, non-retaliatory resource for any stakeholder to inform Allegion of concerns or report findings of non-compliance by sending an e-mail or by using our third-party hotline. Reports can be made anonymously and will be kept confidential to the extent practicable and allowed by law.

STEP 2: Identify and Assess Risks in the Supply Chain

Scope Identification

Due to our size, the complexity of our products, and the depth, breadth, and constant evolution of our supply chain, it is difficult to identify actors upstream from our direct suppliers. Risks are identified automatically in the ACM System based on criteria established for supplier responses in the ACM System. These risks are addressed by Assent Compliance supply chain staff and members of our internal conflict minerals team who contact the supplier, gather pertinent data and perform an assessment of the supplier’s conflict minerals status.

The primary risk we identified with respect to the reporting period ended December 31, 2019 is related to the nature of the responses received. Many of the responses received provided data at a company or divisional level or were unable to specify the smelters or refiners used for 3TG in the components supplied to Allegion. Additionally, many suppliers indicated that they received information regarding their supply chains from fewer than 75% of their suppliers and, therefore, they could not provide a comprehensive list of all smelters or refiners in their supply chains. Based on the supply chain information that we collected, we performed a risk-based approach in our due diligence that included:


▪	Risk Identification through a product segmentation across the company for products that either contained conflict mineral(s) (electronic products or products containing electronic components) or were suspected of containing conflict mineral(s).


▪	Risk Assessment and prioritization of product risk based on information about the product from engineering, catalogs, category managers and commodity-taxonomy definition. Our categories were as follows:


•	High Concern


◦	Electronic products / components


◦	Materials / mechanical components containing 3TG’s


•	Low Concern


◦	Mechanical products, molded components, finishing, powered coats


•	No Concern / Out of Scope


◦	Plastics extrusions, foam/insulation


◦	Packaging, paper, wood, chemicals, service provider etc.

▪

Risk Monitoring of the product risk universe (e.g., new suppliers, additional information learned about the product through engineering, research, etc.). When new suppliers are identified, we conduct a risk assessment of the products to determine the concern level. Based on this assessment, we engage all suppliers that are in scope to educate them on conflict minerals generally and our conflict minerals policy and request that they complete and return the CMRT to us.

Execution

For our 2019 campaign, we retained Assent Compliance (“Assent”), our third-party service provider, to assist us in reviewing our supply chain. We initiated the campaign with a communication to our supply base authorizing Assent to solicit information from our suppliers. Next, Assent distributed a ‘campaign kick-off’ letter in multiple languages that laid out the timing of the 2019 CMRT campaign, the process, and expectations. Following the ‘campaign kick-off’, Assent provided each supplier with (in multiple languages):


•	Allegion’s Conflict Minerals Policy;


•	Information about the conflict minerals regulations;


•	Training materials for the program and CMRT form (version 5.12 or higher);


•	Allegion contact information and conflict minerals website; and


•	CMRT response deadline

We followed a pre-established process for all suppliers with reminders to complete and return the CMRT and validated the CMRT responses for completion and accuracy. In addition, we followed an escalation process for all suppliers who failed to timely complete and return the CMRT or who provided incomplete or inconsistent responses - the process included alternative communication medium (e.g., phone calls or emails from private accounts as opposed to company accounts), leveraging the commodity managers (including local commodity managers in other regions of the world) who had established relationships with the suppliers, and online research of the suppliers to see if they provided any public information regarding conflict minerals (e.g., policy or Form SD filing).

The smelter information provided by the suppliers was validated using the most recent smelter and refinery validation list from the Responsible Minerals Initiative (RMI). Before the validation, the lists were reviewed and scrubbed for:


•	Electronic component suppliers declaring NO 3TGs;


•	Convert old smelter identification number (“CID”) to new CID;


•	Remove duplicates and non-actionable submissions;


•	Identify the CID based on the mineral, name, location;


•	Remove any entries that don’t meet the RMI definition of a smelter or refiner; and


•	Correct misspelled smelters/refiners.

We reviewed the list to identify smelters/refiners that were participating in the Responsible Minerals Assurance Process (“RMAP”) while a risk-based assessment was also performed on the remaining smelters/refiners in order to determine which suppliers posed increased risks in the supply chain. This risk assessment and further investigation consisted of, among other things:


•	Reviews of Dun and Bradstreet reports;


•	Checks of the Department of Commerce Conflict Mineral processing facilities;


•	Verification of country of origin risk as listed in the RMAP Audit Procedure; and


•	Internet searches.

Assent uses three factors to determine the level of risk that each smelter proses to the supply chain by identifying red flags:


•	Geographic proximity to the DRC and covered countries;


•	Responsible Minerals Assurance Process (RMAP) audit status; and


•	Credible evidence of unethical or conflict sourcing.

Based on these criteria, five third-party facilities in the received CMRT responses were identified with red-flag risks. Once red-flag risks are identified, we work with Assent Compliance to follow up with the applicable suppliers to determine whether or not they source materials that impact our products from any of these identified facilities. We further educate the suppliers on conflict minerals and assist them in understanding their risk level and the future implications that this continued risk could have on their customers’ conflict

minerals programs. Through Assent Compliance, submissions that include any of these identified facilities immediately produce a receipt instructing the supplier to take their own risk mitigation actions, including submission of a product specific CMRT to better identify the connection between these identified facilities and the products that they supply to us, if any, and escalating up to removal of these facilities from their supply chain.

Due to our continued partnership with Assent Compliance, we were able to leverage the provider to assist us with the smelter review and country-of-origin determination for the data we collected during our due diligence and supplier campaign.

In 2019, we continued efforts of previous years to refine our supplier scoping process and expand our program. We completed a detailed product/commodity deep dive for new suppliers to understand the products supplied and removed out-of-scope suppliers.

Additionally, suppliers are evaluated on program strength (further assisting in identifying risk in the supply chain). Evaluating and tracking the strength of the program meets the OECD Guidelines and can assist in making key risk mitigation decisions as the program progresses. The criteria used to evaluate the strength of the program are based on these four questions in the CMRT:


A.	Have you established a conflict minerals sourcing policy?

E. Have you implemented due diligence measures for conflict-free sourcing?

G. Do you review due diligence information received from your suppliers against your company’s expectations?

H. Does your review process include corrective action management?

When suppliers meet or exceed those criteria (Yes to at least A, E, G, and H), they are deemed to have a strong program. When suppliers do not meet those criteria, they are deemed to have a weak program. As of March 31^st, 2020, 11% of suppliers have been identified as having a weak program.

STEP 3: Design and Implement a Strategy to Respond to Identified Risks

We provide periodic reports on the progress of our campaign process to our Global Supply Management leadership. On an annual basis, we provide an update to the Executive Leadership team about the state of our conflict minerals program, and have a separate meeting with the Senior Vice President - Global Operations and Integrated Supply Chain (“SVP Global Operations”) and the Deputy General Counsel where we review the process, efforts, challenges, milestones, and results before the final Form SD report is signed by the Senior Vice President - Global Operations and Integrated Supply Chain, and filed with the SEC.

If there is a need for any meetings outside of the regular cadence to discuss emergency/escalation matters, our SVP Global Operations and Deputy General Counsel/Corporate Secretary are available at short notice. Further, we have established an oversight governing body (Conflict Minerals Risk Team) who is responsible for discussing and deciding the next steps for escalated high-risk/non-compliant suppliers (including any need for renegotiation of supplier terms, termination of supplier relationships, creation of a remediation plan, etc.). The members of the team are as indicated below. We also review with internal audit members as needed.


•	Deputy General Counsel and Corporate Secretary


•	SVP Global Operations


•	Director, Global Supply Management


•	Manager, Compliance

STEP 4: Carry out Independent Third-Party Audit of Smelter/Refiner’s Due Diligence Practices

While we do not have a team of resources to independently audit the smelters/refiners within our supply chain, we have partnered with a ‘best-in-class’ third-party software and regulatory consulting company who perform audits and verification activities of smelters/refiners across the globe as part of their business services.

STEP 5: Report Annually on Supply Chain Due Diligence

This is the seventh year that we have reported on our conflict minerals program, our risk assessment and due diligence, and our results. We have experienced a significant maturity from our suppliers in relation to engagement, sophistication of data provided and overall improved transparency in the supply chain.

While progress has been made, we were unable to determine with certainty that all the conflict minerals contained in our products are from conflict free sources due to, among other things, the following:


a.	Several of our suppliers identified smelters/refiners that do not participate in the RMAP or a similar program and other suppliers failed to identify any smelter / refiner in their responses to us. Furthermore, we were unable to obtain responses from all our suppliers and other suppliers provided incomplete or inconsistent data.

Many of our suppliers submitted responses that were declared on a company-wide basis (i.e., representing the smelters and refiners associated with all product offerings of the supplier that contained conflict minerals) and not specific to the materials supplied to Allegion. Therefore, in combination with multiple layers in our supply chain, we believe that these declarations might include smelters and refiners that do not provide the conflict minerals that are in our products.

As a result, we do not have sufficient information to conclusively determine the country of origin of all the conflict minerals in our products and, if such conflict minerals did originate in the Covered Countries, whether such conflict minerals were from recycled or scrap sources or were from other conflict free sources.

2019 Results

For 2019, we analyzed 1,044 suppliers and achieved a total response rate of 82.5% (including out of scope). We were able to assess the risk on 88% of our campaigned spend.

Based on the due diligence process described above and the information provided by our suppliers, we believe, to the extent reasonably determinable by us, that the facilities used to process the conflict minerals in our products or the other sources of the conflict minerals in our products consist of the following 299 entities (listed in the Reported Entities section), and that we have categorized as follows:


•	234 smelters were classified as ‘RMAP Conformant’


•	53 smelters had a status of ‘Not Enrolled’


•	5 smelters are ‘RMAP Active’


•	7 smelters are ‘Non-Conformant’

“RMAP Conformant” means the smelter has successfully completed a Responsible Minerals Assurance Process (RMAP) audit and maintains good standing in the program, through a continual validation process. These smelters or refiners (SOR’s) have the systems and processes in place to support responsible sourcing of raw materials and can provide evidence to support their sourcing activities.

Due Diligence Determination

After performing the due diligence described above, we have better transparency than during the 2018 reporting year. However, we are still unable to determine that all the conflict minerals contained in the products described above originated from conflict free sources.

For the reasons stated in this report, we also do not have sufficient information to conclusively determine the country of origin of all the conflict minerals in our products described above and, if such conflict minerals did originate in the Covered Countries, whether such conflict minerals were from recycled or scrap sources or were from other conflict free sources.

We have provided this information as of the date of this report. Subsequent events, such as the inability or unwillingness of any suppliers, smelters or refiners to provide us with complete information, may affect our future determinations under the Rule.

Independent Private Sector Audit

As permitted by Rule 13p-1 and the SEC’s guidance with respect thereto, we did not obtain an independent private sector audit of this Conflict Minerals Report.

Future Initiatives

We plan to execute several initiatives to enhance our conflict minerals program, such as:


•	Continued education and training both for our Company and our supply chain;


•	Continued partnerships with industry groups and subject matter experts to define and improve best practices and build leverage over our supply chain;


•	Continued engagement with our suppliers to obtain current, accurate and complete information from them and their downstream supply chain; and


•	Continued engagement with our third-party software solution and consulting company who are working on independently verifying smelters outside of the RMI smelter certification program.
