Streamline Compliance Management Processes for Your Global Supply Chain

Supply chain compliance is an ongoing process that requires businesses to constantly stay up to date with new regulations and updates to existing laws. Attempting to manage it all on your own — even with a reliable in-house team by your side — is challenging.

You need a digital tool to it possible to keep up. Sourcemap offers advanced capabilities to help you simplify your compliance management processes.

Assess Ongoing Supplier Risk in Real Time

Our automated heat map feature calculates a risk score for a specified commodity or risk based on supplier-provided data, saving you valuable time and effort in vetting potential partners. If the risk scores change, Sourcemap's AI-powered watchlist and newsfeed monitoring will automatically alert you, so you can respond right away.

Additionally, our industry-leading sub-supplier compliance portal unlocks traceability beyond your immediate suppliers, unlocking critical insights into their suppliers for complete supply chain visibility. Optical Character Recognition capabilities enable Sourcemap to automatically scan and classify policies, certifications and more for streamlined due diligence.

Generate Detailed Reports On Demand

Regulatory bodies require regular reporting and thorough documentation as evidence of your compliance efforts. As the only platform specifically designed for supply chains, Sourcemap's visualization engine can handle massive quantities of data from every tier of your supply chain.


Sourcemap can create intuitive, granular reports that reflect the most current information available — even at the level of individual SKUs. Using these insights, you can create and implement a solid action plan in just minutes.

Plus, you can easily download the reports in a user-friendly format for your internal records, for external audits, or for your stakeholders to review.

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.
