- \nOperate with AI-powered confidence.<\/b> Novata AI helps suppliers work faster by easily uploading data from internal systems, extracting information from documents, and filling gaps using Novata\u2019s comprehensive benchmark library. For organizations, Novata AI surfaces risk signals from specialist providers, maps regulatory obligations, and translates complex sustainability information into actionable insights.<\/li>\n

\n\u201cSupply chain sustainability data is a critical source of operational and financial intelligence,\u201d said Alex Friedman, Co-Founder and Co-CEO at Novata. \u201cWith this launch, we are helping companies move beyond manual collection processes to a system that turns supplier data into actionable insight, enabling better risk management and stronger decision-making across the value chain.\u201d<\/p>
\nHistorically, fragmented requests and inconsistent methodologies leave sustainability and procurement teams managing numerous spreadsheets, chasing follow-ups, and working with incomplete data that\u2019s hard to collect and trust. Novata for Supply Chains replaces that ad-hoc process with a streamlined experience, providing investors and companies with a clear, connected view of sustainability and emissions data across supplier networks.<\/p>
\nThe solution supports both sides of the supplier relationship. Organizations collecting data can coordinate supplier engagement, standardize responses, and strengthen reporting readiness, all in one place. Suppliers reporting data get a guided experience with simple workflows, reusable responses, and less back-and-forth with stakeholders, reducing the reporting burden for resource-constrained teams.<\/p>
\n\u201cSuppliers are increasingly expected to respond to multiple, often inconsistent sustainability requests with limited time and resources,\u201d said Meredith Binder, Chief Product Officer & Chief Marketing Officer at Novata. \u201cWhat we\u2019re hearing from organizations is a clear need for simplicity and consistency. When suppliers are given structured, repeatable workflows, participation improves dramatically, and the quality of data improves with it.\u201d<\/p>
\nNovata for Supply Chains builds on Novata\u2019s collaboration with Microsoft to streamline Microsoft\u2019s supplier sustainability data collection and support more consistent, auditable reporting processes. The solution is now available across the broader market, enabling organizations to collect supplier sustainability data at scale while giving suppliers a simpler, more consistent way to respond to customer requests.<\/p>
