Onboarding
Suppliers join through a branded portal — no email-attachment back-and-forth, no manual data entry on your side.
Supplier
Run the supply base like the asset it is.
Suppliers onboard themselves through a branded portal. Self-assessment questionnaires renew automatically. KYC/KYB verification runs continuously. Performance scorecards aggregate signals from quality, delivery, and compliance — ranked, not averaged.

Five dimensions
Supplier management, end to end.
Onboarding through to risk monitoring on one platform. No spreadsheets, no email-attachment SAQs, no separate KYB SaaS.
SAQ
Self-Assessment Questionnaires that suppliers fill, version, and renew on a schedule. Audit-ready, no email PDFs.
Verification
KYC/KYB checks against beneficial-ownership, sanctions, and adverse-media data. Continuous, not just at onboarding.
Scorecards
Composite performance scores from quality, delivery, and compliance signals. Ranked, not averaged.
Multi-tier
See past your direct suppliers into the chains that feed them — risk surfaces before it reaches you.
How it works
Four steps from invite to insight.
The supplier never installs anything. Your operator never manages a separate KYB vendor relationship. Every step is logged and audit-ready.
- 01
Invite
Email invitation with branded portal link. Supplier accepts in one click — no Traceage account creation required on their side.
- 02
SAQ
Supplier completes a Self-Assessment Questionnaire against your standards. Auto-saves as they go; multi-session friendly.
- 03
Verify
KYC/KYB check kicks off automatically. Beneficial owners, sanctions lists, and adverse media — clean signal in hours.
- 04
Monitor
Scorecards roll forward with every delivery, quality event, and audit cycle. Renewals fire automatically.
Industries
Built for regulated supply chains.
Wherever supplier risk has regulatory or safety consequences, the supplier base is the longest tail of unmanaged risk. Traceage closes that loop.
Capabilities
Six capabilities, one platform.
Self-service supplier portal
Branded onboarding URL where suppliers fill profile, certs, and contacts. Versioned, audit-trail, no email PDFs.
SAQ engine
Custom questionnaire builder. Conditional logic, file uploads, multi-section forms. Auto-renews on schedule.
KYC / KYB verification
Identity + business verification via third-party providers. Beneficial ownership, sanctions, adverse media — continuous, not point-in-time.
Performance scorecards
Composite 0-100 scores from quality, delivery, and compliance signals. Trend lines, sub-scores, and ranked views.
Certificate management
ISO 22000, BRCGS, FSSC 22000, HACCP, SQF. Expiry-aware reminders. Auditor-ready exports in seconds.
Multi-tier visibility
Beyond direct suppliers — see who your suppliers source from. Country-level risk, sub-tier sanctions exposure, geographic concentration.
Onboarding flow
Invite at 0:00 — ranked scorecard at 24:30.
Realistic timeline for onboarding a single new supplier. Most operators run this for 10–50 suppliers in parallel without lifting a finger after the initial invite send.

Connected
Supplier data flows everywhere it matters.
Every supplier record is shared infrastructure across the rest of the platform — no re-entry, no out-of-sync directories, no parallel systems.
