About Momentum Manufacturing Group

Momentum Manufacturing Group (MMG) has always prioritized efficiency and compliance. But manual supplier outreach was slowing down its process. After partnering with Assent, MMG can now generate full compliance declarations for parts with known material compositions, without having to chase suppliers.

The Challenge: Time-Consuming Supplier Data Collection

Even when the material makeup of your products is simple, compliance management can still be complex without the right solution.

This was MMG’s challenge. Whenever a customer requested compliance declarations for rules like the Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation, and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH) Regulation or the Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive, MMG found itself spending too much time on manual supplier outreach.

Despite having complete and reliable material composition records, they still had to chase down suppliers for compliance statements. The result? Delays, bottlenecks, and wasted time across their compliance program.

  • Small suppliers could take weeks to respond, as they didn’t have the time or knowledge to handle data requests
  • Some suppliers simply wouldn’t respond to requests, creating compliance data gaps
  • Even proactive vendors were slow, waiting for their own supplier mills to provide data, adding another week or more to the process
  • Compliance teams were forced to follow up repeatedly, pulling them away from strategic work

MMG needed a faster, automated way to provide compliance information to customers.

Automation for the Win

Since most of MMG’s products use metals with standardized, well-documented compositions, manual supplier outreach was redundant. That’s why MMG contacted Assent for help — they discovered that Assent’s Standard Materials Library solution can automatically determine the compliance status of these simple parts across multiple regulations. That compliance data gets rolled up into a full material disclosure (FMD) that can be shared with customers, without the need to reach out to suppliers and wait for responses.

It’s possible thanks to Assent’s unmatched library of material and compliance data, and a powerful AI-assisted process that can put all the pieces together. With Assent, MMG simply needs to enter what’s in the part and they get data that’s already on hand.

And when regulatory lists change, Assent makes it easy for MMG to revalidate the compliance status of its parts. MMG doesn’t need to have a regulatory researcher on staff just to keep up with changes to their requirements, and there’s no need to reach out to suppliers every time a rule updates.

When a regulatory request comes in that falls outside our usual compliance requirements, Assent’s experts are there to help explain how we should respond. We don’t have anyone on staff dedicated to environmental science or regulatory research, so it’s a game changer for us.

Not Just Easier — It’s Better for Business

With Assent, MMG slashed its compliance workload by 80–90%, reducing costs, improving efficiency, and freeing up time for higher-value work.

When MMG first implemented Assent’s solution, it was immediately able to match 60% of its existing product catalogue with compliant FMDs. Now, MMG only needs to engage a supplier to fill in the gap for special cases like custom orders or parts using powder coatings or chrome plating.

This efficiency isn’t just a time-saver; it’s a competitive advantage. With the Assent platform, MMG typically has a compliance declaration ready before a customer even asks. And using the Assent Sustainability Platform, MMG can see all their Assent customer requests in a single hub.

An estimated 75% of MMG’s revenue is tied to customers with compliance requirements. If MMG can’t provide declarations on time, it can have a major impact on contracts. By working with Assent to prioritize compliance, MMG protects its reputation, strengthens customer trust, and safeguards its revenue.
