FAQ: Why Supplier Management?

Frequently Asked Question: Why did Trust Your Supplier choose to tackle supplier management?

At Trust Your Supplier (TYS), we identified a significant gap in the reliability and efficiency of supplier data management. In today’s rapidly evolving supply chain landscape, traditional methods for discovering, onboarding, and monitoring suppliers are struggling to keep pace with the constant flow of changing information and increasing regulatory demands.

The “supplier” is a fundamental element of every supply chain, and globalization necessitates rigorous vetting and risk assessment across multiple areas to ensure trust, transparency, and compliance with global regulations. The pandemic highlighted the vulnerabilities of over-reliance on a limited number of suppliers, leading to disruptions, higher costs, and inefficiencies. It also underscored the growing importance of supplier diversity and the need for suppliers to demonstrate ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) and sustainability initiatives.

We believe that a blockchain-powered solution like Trust Your Supplier is essential for modernizing and securing supplier management. By harnessing blockchain technology, we aim to provide a robust platform that addresses these challenges, ensuring more reliable, transparent, and efficient supplier management for the future.

FAQ: Why Blockchain?

Trust Your Supplier (TYS) chose blockchain technology because of its unparalleled ability to ensure data integrity, security, transparency, and auditability. Blockchain enables secure and efficient data exchange between stakeholders, enhancing compliance and decision-making processes.

Blockchain also enhances auditability by maintaining a tamper-proof record of all transactions and interactions.

This comprehensive audit trail simplifies compliance with regulatory requirements and facilitates internal and external audits.

In essence, blockchain technology empowers TYS to deliver a robust, reliable, and innovative solution for supplier and risk management, helping businesses achieve greater efficiency, confidence, and accountability in their supplier management operations.
