Why traceability matters

From supply chain transparency to regulatory compliance, like the EUDR and UK Environment Act, the ability to meticulously trace and track every facet of your (and your suppliers’) processes is paramount. It not only enhances operational efficiency but builds a foundation of trust with stakeholders.

In a world driven by data, traceability becomes your superpower. It can be your tool against deforestation by ensuring products can be traced back to their source, and it can be used to foster accountability and authenticity to put an end to challenges like the exploitation of human rights, or the rise in counterfeit goods. This isn't just a vision; it's a tangible way to make a positive impact on the world and build trust with your stakeholders, businesses, governments and society.

As organisations worldwide increasingly demand traceability for seamless exchanges and collaborations, embracing the precision and transparency that traceability brings isn't just a strategic move; it's becoming an industry standard. By doing so, you're not just elevating your business; you're becoming a driving force for positive change.

Introduce traceability in 3 simple steps

Data Collection

Interu allows you to seamlessly specify and collect information from numerous sources in an easy to use web app, where information is organised, verified, stored and securely shared.  

Organising Information

Leveraging Interu’s powerful platform, you can organise your information into helpful formats to support your customers in meeting due diligence requirements.

This saves you, and your customers, time, helps you with market access and gives you a competitive edge.

Securely Sharing

You can securely share information with interested parties without compromising privacy.

iov42’s unique technology means only the people who have permission can gain access to the data stored on Interu, and only the information that is required is visible.

Data Gathering 

Complex supply chains have large data sets from numerous sources that users need to be able to pull together and make sense of.

Interu helps you to gather, organise and display critical due diligence information, and supports you with analysis in order to make data driven decisions.

Validating Your Data

Built on iov42’s core technology, Interu users can validate and prove the authenticity of data as well as verifying it with third parties.

This helps you build stronger bonds of trust across supply networks and enhances confidence in your due diligence.

Actionable Insights 

With a clear view of supply networks and associated data, you can now identify the steps needed for compliance, such as tracking down missing data, completing risk assessments and mitigating risks.

Testimonials

We’ve heard a lot from our clients about their traceability challenges, for example those wanting to map their supply chains at a product or commodity level. They want to ensure their products are sourced sustainably, and to understand the impacts they have. Sustainability-related regulations increasingly require visibility of value chains as well, for example the EU’s Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation and Deforestation Regulation.

It’s been great working with the iov42 team. Your trust framework and platform have helped to structure our thinking on how we can build a solution together that delivers trusted information for clients.
