New capacity planning marketplace layer to address persistent supply chain issues around subcontracting and enable better forecasting for both buyers and suppliers, capacity tracking and optimization of production using blockchain technology and calculation algorithms.

Transparency Tracking & Engagement Indicators:  Supplier capacity building and transparency tracking tools and analytics through a tool integrating assessments of indicators of suppliers’ and manufacturer’s likely social (labor), health and safety and environmental sustainability standards leveraging the strengths of existing open-source tools and performance databases.  Sustainability indicators are taken into account more rapidly in real-time in the design and sourcing process.
