To start 2025 on a positive note, ECCMA has published a new resource for those working to create robust, flexible and reliable supply chains : Supply chain managers, buyers, IT teams, legal teams, vendors, regulators.
A Supply Chain Data Formatting Clause mandates the identification and description of “who”, “what”, “where”, and “when” within data provided to you by a supplier.
When incorporated into the contractual basis of an organization’s supply chain operations, the clause provides a framework that enables clearer, more efficient, and more reliable data exchanges across the entire supply chain. It leads to better operational coordination, compliance, and data-driven decision-making, enhancing the overall value of the supply chain.
ECCMA has made this resource available without copyright. It is available without license, limitation or restriction on use for the purpose of encouraging clarity, consistency, and proper data exchange between supply chain stakeholders. ECCMA does not warrant or accept responsibility for its use. You should seek appropriate legal advice for its adoption within your business.
