Case Study: Pico Technology achieves audit-ready compliance and faster supplier response with Assent

Pico Technology saves 2,000 staff hours annually with Assent

Pico Technology, a manufacturer of PC oscilloscopes and data loggers, faced significant compliance challenges as it grew rapidly and began serving large automotive customers. Its manual processes, involving spreadsheets and evidence stored in inboxes, could not keep up with increasing customer audits and regulatory pressure, putting the company at risk of fines and lost business. To address this, Pico Technology turned to Assent and its Sustainability Platform for a solution.

Assent implemented its platform to centralize all supplier compliance data, automate requests and reminders in suppliers' local languages, and scale effortlessly for new regulations. This solution provided Pico with a measurable impact, including an over 80% supplier response rate, savings of approximately 2,000 staff hours annually, and the avoidance of hiring a full-time employee. Assent also helped Pico demonstrate robust due diligence to auditors and confidently manage compliance for over 200 suppliers.
