End-to-end Assurance solution that provides continuous supply chain transparency.

(London, UK) Intertek, a leading Total Quality Assurance provider to industries worldwide, is pleased to unveil its recently rebranded, end-to-end Supply Chain Risk Management solution, Intertek Inlight. Formerly known as Global Supplier Management (GSM), Intertek Inlight is a complete web-based supply chain risk management program that helps businesses identify blind spots and find opportunities for improvement, providing continuous transparency to supply chain management. Intertek Inlight enables organisations to map their supply chain, mitigate risks and bring visibility to the workings of their vendor partners. With the support of Inlight, customers can turn potential disruptions and compliance irregularities to their competitive advantage with captured market share and operational efficiencies.

Intertek Inlight is a solution which is vital for organisations that rely on extended operations, both internally and externally, for their business processes. The Assurance solution provides assessment and analysis of risk events at all points in the supply chain, from the sourcing of raw materials, compliance of customer and international regulations, to end-use by consumers. The web-based platform incorporates Intertek’s subject matter expertise and risk assessment methodologies, which have been developed over a history of more than 20 years in supply chain risk and compliance auditing. This is supported by the benefits of a global and local network of offices and outsourced teams who speak the local language and understand the local market.

In addition, Intertek Inlight provides verified supplier data and reporting presented in an analytical dashboard environment in the form of structured profiles relating to a variety of industry topics including business demographics, product quality and safety, security, sustainability and social responsibility. This allows companies to improve evaluation and have access to supplier performance in areas that are critical to their business. Verified supplier profiles provide complete and up-todate intelligence in real-time, by incorporating supplier input as well as independent third-party verification to improve overall supply chain management performance.

Calin Moldovean, President of Intertek Business Assurance, said: “Intertek Inlight is not just a web platform. It’s a costeffective supplier management solution that enables businesses to identify issues and improve their supplier relationships. Ultimately, empowering companies with new efficiencies to make informed decisions, enhance brand reputation, and help strengthen supply chain resilience.”
