SUPPLY CHAIN TRACEABILITY
Trace any part back to its origin in seconds.
Every supplier, every tier, every cert, all connected through a single, traceable chain of custody.
From a single part to its full origin story.
SmartCert turns every cert into a connected node in your supply chain. Supplier flagged, tariff shifted, customer question, quality issue. Whatever triggers the trace, every supplier, every lot, every material cert, and every sub-tier relationship is already connected, searchable, and ready.
Built for supply chains where origin and integrity matter.
Layer 1: Lot-level traceability
Every cert linked to the lot, the part, and the order it belongs to. Trace a finished part back to the specific lot of raw material it came from. Searchable across your entire history.
Layer 2: Sub-tier visibility
See past your direct suppliers into the tiers below. Track material flow across multiple suppliers, regions, and processing stages, all connected through verified cert data, not vendor questionnaires.
Layer 3: Chain of custody and version control
Every cert has a complete history. Who created it, who approved it, who modified it, and when. Version-controlled, audit-tracked, and built for the governance programs your business depends on.
Critical Minerals Traceability
When origin shapes everything from compliance to landed cost.
Tariffs, export controls, and sanctions have made material sourcing a board-level risk. With expanding scrutiny over materials like copper, lithium, rare earths, and titanium, non-compliance now directly affects landed costs, duty exposure, customer audits, and shipment holds.
SmartCert was built for moments like these. Every cert entering the platform is read, structured, and mapped to its full sourcing path—from heat or extraction point to the finished part—giving you instant answers on lot origin, suppliers, and compliance status.
Three capabilities for materials under scrutiny
Origin Extraction
Country of origin and material composition pulled from every cert. Critical minerals, base metals, alloys, and finished parts, all structured and searchable.
Sourcing Paths
The full supplier chain behind every part, including regions, processing facilities, and intermediaries. Tariff and sanctions risk are visible before they become a problem.
