Supply Chain Mapping

Supply chain mapping for your toy, childcare or hardline products is a valuable exercise that provides in-depth information to help your organisation fully understand the traceability of materials used. This places your retail or manufacturing business in a position of strength when developing policy, communicating to your customers or when reporting performance.

We have a series of supply chain mapping products that can be tailored to your business needs:

Package 1 – Comprehensive Supply Chain Mapping

We can help you understand what your materials supply chain looks like and where the connections are by digitally mapping your supply chain using specialist software. Our interactive geographical map identifies locations and functions within your supply chain footprint using data gathered to the manufacturing facility level where possible.

A risk analysis is completed detailing the top five hotspots of activity within your supply chain. The risk analysis along with a report is presented to your internal stakeholders and can be used to make informed traceability decisions, respond to scrutiny and ensure compliance to legislation or standards.

Package 2 – Expert Support Package

We will apply knowledge and expertise to help you generate and get the most out of your supply chain data to inform your traceability. We will design and produce a tailored supply chain questionnaire for you and conduct a sense check on the data you get back using our unique understanding of the industry.

We will also conduct a risk analysis on the regions where you have a high concentration of suppliers considering issues such as environmental and social sensitivities, legislation and governance.

Package 3 – Light Touch Traceability Questionnaire

We can help you develop a supplier questionnaire to map your supply chain. This will be designed to ensure you get the highest rate of return possible and that you ask the right questions to map your supply chain. The product would include a visit to your site to understand the particular elements of your supply chain you would like to map.
