Customer Spotlight: Plexus Corp.

“It’s a no-brainer. It really is. That is taking you from a high-touchpoint-type program with mediocre results to a low-touch program with very high results and program growth, year-in and year-out. I’ll receive compliments on the maturity and the complexity of our program.

Build a More Sustainable
Supply Chain

Conflict minerals sourced from conflict-affected areas directly contribute to ongoing violence and forced labor. The presence of these minerals in your products and supply chain puts your reputation, market access, and sustainability score at risk. Assent helps you detect risks in your mineral sourcing so you can proactively make smarter sourcing decisions.

Your Entire Conflict Minerals Program in One Place

Assent centralizes all your conflict minerals and extended minerals data — including smelters and sources for tin, tungsten, tantalum, and gold (3TGs) as well as cobalt — into a single platform, removing data silos and letting you make more effective purchasing and sustainability decisions.

Get More Time for Growth

Assent automates supplier outreach and follow-ups for the CMRT and Extended Minerals Reporting Template (EMRT), significantly reducing the time and effort required to manage your conflict minerals program. Our solution validates all incoming data, and we provide free supplier education on conflict minerals to keep your program running smoothly.

Protect Market Access & Compliance

Regulators and investors demand that conflict minerals compliance claims are backed up with defensible and transparent data about the minerals in your products. With Assent, you can see deeper into your supply chain and build a supply chain sustainability program based on reliable data and clear audit trails. We protect your brand and market access, helping you demonstrate compliance with conflict minerals legislation, and prove to buyers and investors that your products are made ethically.

Supplier Quality Program Senior Manager, GE Appliances
We have other vendors, we have to consult with them. Assent is completely different, they preemptively give us information and anticipate our needs. That’s something that sets Assent apart, to be able to give any supplier that training they need. All through the Assent portal. They don’t have to come back to me with questions. They can get clarity, and training, and do it all before responding.
