Case Study: US Government improves Section 889 supply chain compliance with Altana AI

US Government - Customer Case Study

The US government faced the challenge of complying with Section 889, a complex regulation that restricts contracting with entities using specific banned telecommunications equipment. This required contractors to gain unprecedented visibility into their entire, often global, supply chain to identify any banned entities, a task too vast for manual processes. To address this, they turned to Altana and its Altana Atlas platform to provide the necessary supply chain intelligence.

Altana implemented its AI-powered Altana Atlas to programmatically map and monitor extended global supply chains for government contractors. The solution provided dynamic oversight, enabling contractors to efficiently screen for banned entities and their affiliates deep within their supply networks, thus reducing manual compliance costs and mitigating risk. By using Altana, contractors gained the necessary visibility to confidently ensure compliance with the evolving Section 889 requirements.
