Regulatory intelligence
The continuous, evidence-backed practice of knowing which regulations apply to a product or supplier, and being able to demonstrate compliance with verifiable data.
Regulatory intelligence is the practice of understanding which regulations apply to a given product, supplier or shipment, and being able to demonstrate compliance with evidence on demand. It is not a one-off reporting exercise. It is a continuous practice of accountability, and it begins with the reliable exchange of product-level data between every organisation in the chain.
What regulatory intelligence requires
A regulatory intelligence capability needs three things in place:
- A clear view of which obligations apply to a given product or supplier.
- The underlying data, origins, materials, certifications and processes, captured at the level of detail the regulation requires.
- A way to retrieve that data with evidence of its provenance, when an auditor, customer or regulator asks.
How LinkXG supports regulatory intelligence
LinkXG holds the underlying product, supplier and certification data, kept current by the supplier inside the systems their teams already use. When a regulator, auditor or customer asks for evidence, the answer is already on the network with its provenance intact, retrievable in one step.
