Case Study: Danfoss achieves streamlined conflict minerals compliance with Assent

Danfoss - Customer Case Study

Danfoss, a global machinery innovator trusted in over 100 countries, faced the challenge of responding to widespread customer requests for conflict minerals sourcing data—even though it is not directly in scope of Section 1502 of the U.S. Dodd‑Frank Act. Manually collecting data from more than 1,000 in‑scope suppliers was costly and inefficient, so Danfoss turned to Assent and implemented Assent’s Responsible Minerals/Conflict Minerals solution (client since 2016) for regulatory and program support.

Assent took over management of Danfoss’s conflict minerals and supply chain sustainability data, providing technical support, supplier communication and education, and ongoing consultancy. As a result, Assent helped Danfoss eliminate data silos, streamline communication across business units, and improve supplier response rates and data quality for 1,407 suppliers—enabling faster, more accurate customer reporting and stronger global compliance.
