• One record per supplier and per supplied material, with documents attached.
• Specifications, safety data sheets, certificates and declarations tracked with expiry dates.
• Approval status per material and site, so buyers can't order from unapproved sources.
• Supplier performance from real receipts: on-time delivery, rejections and deviations.
• Questionnaires and document requests sent and tracked in one place.
• Alerts when a document expires or a supplier revises a specification or SDS.
• Links from each supplier material to the formulas and products it goes into.
• Evidence ready for customer audits and regulatory questions.

Procurement suites manage vendors and spend. They don't know which formulas use a material, whether its SDS is current, or which markets it's cleared for. That knowledge usually lives with one technical person and a shared drive.

Approval workflows per material and site, current documents, agreed specifications, lot history and a clear view of where each material is used.

Each supplier and material sits on the same record as your formulas and lots. Willow chases expiring documents, reads new SDSs for changes, and flags any that affect a formula or market, for a person to review.

A fragrance supplier issues a revised safety data sheet with a new allergen above the disclosure threshold. The document is uploaded against the supplier material, and the system shows every formula that uses it and every finished product affected.

Regulatory sees that three products now need label updates in the EU. Willow drafts the change summary and the list of affected products for the regulatory lead to review. Purchasing can see the same change against the supplier, so the next order isn't placed without it being acknowledged.

Worldover manages raw material suppliers for chemicals and cosmetics companies, where the risk is in the material data and documents as much as the price. It isn't a general procurement or spend-management suite for indirect purchasing.

Supplier portals and document requests work best when suppliers respond, so we help you prioritise the suppliers and materials that carry most risk first.
