Geo-polygon mapping and error detection

Sourcemap's cascading supplier portal now includes batch geo-polygon mapping tool and error detection so that suppliers receive real-time feedback on the quality and completion of their geo-polygon farm and forest maps to fix errors as they happen.

Degradation and Deforestation monitoring informed by the EU Forest Observatory

Sourcemap includes all of the recommended deforestation and degradation detection heat maps and scans every polygon as it's uploaded to flag any suspicious raw material sources.

Risk-Based Legality Assessment

Sourcemap partners with leading NGO's to bring a streamlined legality assessment that can quickly establish an auditable compliant legality framework.

Shipment traceability and Due Diligence Statement Generation

Collect shipment-level traceability to individual forests and farms when you need it, with on-demand validation and automated DDS generation for uploading to the forthcoming EU portal.

Plausibility Analysis

Sourcemap automatically ensures that sufficient land is mapped for the volumes shipped, and notifies any supplier where land mapped is insufficient to clear the PO.

Integration with ERP for automatic Supplier and Shipment Qualification

Sourcemap integrates with all major ERP solutions to trigger vendor qualification and shipment/PO clearance only once the legality and deforestation/degradation assessments are complete.

 

FAQs

  • People have been mapping supply chains as long as they’ve been making maps. But traditional maps only provide a summary view - they don't show how supply chains change in real time. Modern supply chain mapping is the process of engaging across companies and suppliers to document the exact source of every material, every process and every shipment involved in bringing goods to market. Accurate supply chain mapping only became possible with the rise of online maps and the social web. The first online supply chain mapping platform was developed at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 2008 (the underlying open source technology is the basis for Sourcemap). Read More

  • The concept of supply chain transparency was virtually unknown 15 years ago, yet today it commands the attention of mid- and senior-level managers across a broad spectrum of companies and industries.

    The reasons for this increased interest are clear: Companies are under pressure from governments, consumers, NGOs, and other stakeholders to divulge more information about their supply chains, and the reputational cost of failing to meet these demands can be high. For example, food companies are facing more demand for supply-chain-related information about ingredients, food fraud, animal welfare, and child labor. Less clear, however, is how to define transparency in a supply chain context and the extent to which companies should pursue it: an MIT study that mapped definitions of supply chain transparency related to labor practices in the apparel industry found vastly different definitions across organizations.

  • Companies are under increased pressure from governments and regulators to ensure that their products are compliant with human rights and environmental standards. The only way for companies to ensure their supply chains are "clean" is by mapping their supply chains down the raw materials using auditable, verifiable data.
