Software takes the conflict out of 3TG reporting


A number of new software 'wizard' tools are now available fromBOMcheck, to help suppliers andmanufacturers adhere to conflict minerals legislation.


Under the final rules published by the US


Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), companieswho use 3TGmetals - that is tin, tungsten, or tantalumthat has been smelted, or gold that has been refined - are required to file a conflictminerals disclosure formeach year.


The Electronics Industry Citizenship


Coalition (EICC) and Global eSustainability Initiative (GeSI) reporting template is a widely used questionnaire to help companies identify the smelters that process 3TGmetals. To simplify reporting, suppliers can upload their EICC-GeSI templates to the BOMcheck centralized web database somanufacturers can download status reports.


BOMcheck also includes new supply chain


management tools formanufacturing companies and ‘wizard’ tools to guide suppliers tomake substance declarations for REACH, RoHS and other regulated substances around the world.


Manufacturing companies can use


BOMcheck to send a parts list and a request message to their suppliers for action in BOMcheck. Suppliers receive reminder emails if the required dates in the customer requests are exceeded. Suppliers can also review the customer requests and send a response message in BOMcheck to accept or reject the parts list. If the supplier accepts the request, new 'wizard' tools guide the supplier to download the customer’s parts list and to make declarations for their own part numbers and/or tomap the customer part numbers to the supplier's part numbers.
