Altana for Sourcing & Procurement
Regulators now scrutinize every product’s full value chain to determine detentions and tariff rates. Altana’s AI maps your full value chains beyond Tier-1 and makes it possible to pre-clear border entry with CBP, meaning on-time and in-full product delivery and predictable landed costs.
$100M+ Remediated compliance risk across procurement spend for one Altana customer.

The Border Effect
Procurement is judged on assurance of supply — the right goods, on time, at the cost forecasted. But the rules governing border clearance today reach deep into the “goods within your goods.” UFLPA detentions, surprise Section 232 tariffs, China exposure and other origin requirements or legal reviews that trigger delays and explode costs are based on components and suppliers you might not even see. Altana makes your supply chain trade ready. You move from detentions and unexpected duties to shipment pre-validation and predictable costs.
Trace and verify multi-tier value chains, screen every supplier for risk, and pre-validate your goods with customs using Product Passports — so a detention never becomes a line item.
Map your value chains beyond Tier-1 to see the full sourcing picture, including components and raw materials you've never tracked. AI monitors value chains continuously for sourcing changes.
Accurate, continuously-updating tariff calculations — including complex, stacking duties and material-composition-based Section 232 rates — help inform landed cost estimates as rules change
Model duty impact across sourcing scenarios by supplier, component, and country.
Screen your supply base for UFLPA and forced labor exposure at every tier, with documented evidence trails for compliance.
Build 24/7, agentic AI work into the full lifecycle of the supply chain. Work with brokers and suppliers to map supply chains, remediate issues, reduce tariff exposure, and clear borders.
Surface critical dependencies on a single supplier, region, or country before it becomes a crisis. Identify overexposure to countries or regions and model the impact of diversification.
Engage suppliers directly in-platform to request documentation, verify certifications, negotiate prices, and keep your supply base current.
Supply chain risk management (SCRM) plans were a critical first step, but blinking red lights no longer support the demands of modern sourcing and procurement work. Learn why SCRM tools alone won’t give you answers to basic questions about China exposure or single-sourced risks, and how Altana makes it possible to move goods faster, pay less, clear the border, and adapt fast when regulations change.
The Trade Ready Supply Chain
Your product data is scattered across ERPs, spreadsheets, emails, and broker filings. Altana's AI organizes it into one catalog —which stays up-to-date even as sourcing changes. You get AI-illuminated, multi-tier sourcing paths, verify with suppliers, and show proof to customs for pre-clearance.
Altana AI
Altana’s AI operates on Altana’s Supply Chain Graph — the world’s largest, most detailed view of how goods move across the globe, built from public trade data, commercial sources, and proprietary shipment data from the world’s leading logistics providers. That foundation enables AI-driven network collaboration on your products and shipments that you can actually trust — and which no generic, publicly trained AI can replicate.
Case Studies
47 consecutive shipments detained on forced labor suspicion with zero CBP communication. Amid millions in delay costs, procurement estimates a $1.7M cost to find a new supplier.
Collaborating in one Product Passport, the brand, suppliers, logistics, and CBP verified the AI value chain. CBP pre-validated the shipment, which cleared the border. The 48th detention never happened.
$50M Avoided in repeat detentions
$1.7M Saved by retaining the supplier
$1.1M Saved by removing 45-day buffer
