Case Study: a U.S. importer achieves CTPAT Tier 3 certification with Altana

U.S. Importer Company - Customer Case Study

The U.S. Importer Company, a global importer, faced significant challenges in securing CTPAT certification due to a lack of visibility into its deep-tier supply chain and the inability to manually identify and address forced labor exposures. To overcome these hurdles, the company engaged Altana and utilized its Atlas platform to gain the necessary insight.

Using the AI-powered Altana Atlas, the company mapped its product-level value chains, identifying over 50 high-risk forced labor connections and gaining visibility into thousands of previously unknown sub-tier suppliers. This data-driven approach allowed them to validate and divest from problematic suppliers, resulting in a 100% reduction of the identified risks. Altana's solution enabled a successful CTPAT Tier 3 certification within a week and transformed their compliance process, increasing their annual supplier screenings from zero to over 500.
