Everstream Analytics, the global supply chain predictive insights and risk analytics company, is recognized today as a winner of this year’s Top Software & Tech award by Food Logistics and Supply & Demand Chain Executive for its Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act (UFLPA) forced labor visibility solution.
Uncovering and eliminating forced labor within the supply chain is a global imperative and major focus for Everstream, who has been recognized as the world’s first Slave-Free Alliance-validated modern slavery and forced labor technology provider. UFLPA is a law that prevents goods made with forced labor in the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region of China from entering the U.S. market. Combining AI predictions, historical supplier analysis, and frequently updated UFLPA Supplier Watch List with expert human analysis, Everstream’s UFLPA Risk solution dynamically monitors, assesses and predicts supplier forced labor risks within complex, sub-tier supplier networks.
“The ongoing use of forced labor within the global supply chain is unacceptable,” said Julie Gerdeman, CEO of Everstream Analytics. “While governments address the issue with legislation, businesses must do their part. This is not an easy task, as forced labor is often hidden deep within the multi-tiered supply chain. However, increased supply chain visibility and awareness are a path towards resolution, and Everstream is committed to making supply chains more responsible and sustainable.”
The 2023 Top Software & Tech Award had two main categories, Small Business (<$50 million) and Enterprise (> $49 million), and five subcategories: Procurement/ERP Software, WMS/TMS Software, Warehouse Automation, Robotics, and Supply Chain Visibility Solutions. Supply Chain Visibility Solutions was the most popular category, accounting for 58% of submissions.
“From robotics and warehouse automation to procurement and ERP software, WMS, TMS and supply chain visibility solutions, the supply chain software and technology sector continues to boom,” said Marina Mayer, Editor-in-Chief of Food Logistics and Supply & Demand Chain Executive. “These solutions (and many more) are designed to streamline, optimize and innovate the supply chain and logistics space, and do so by incorporating emerging technologies and a path to efficiency.”
