Case Study: Hologic achieves protection from PFAS disruptions with Assent

How Hologic Protects Its Customers & Operations From PFAS Disruptions

Hologic, a global medical device manufacturer, faced a surge of regulatory and supply‑chain risk from evolving PFAS restrictions that threatened parts availability and compliance. To address identification, essential‑use exemptions, and parts obsolescence across a complex supply base, Hologic turned to Assent, building on its existing supply chain sustainability management program and implementing Assent’s PFAS Identification solution.

Assent automatically surveyed Hologic’s suppliers and centralized PFAS responses into dashboards, helping Hologic identify hundreds of PFAS uses (including 592 part declarations) and campaign 3,626 suppliers for data. With Assent’s expert guidance and platform insights, Hologic reduced obsolescence risk, gave procurement and engineering actionable data, sped customer responses, and used defensible compliance data in its sustainability reporting—turning PFAS management into a competitive advantage.
