Customer context
What had to change
Context
The team was preparing for a national retailer audit while evidence lived across email threads, shared folders, and spreadsheet trackers. Regulatory knew what had to be defended, operations knew the launch pressure, and supplier follow-up depended on manual reminders.
Before Valent
Before Valent, packet assembly started too late. The team had to re-check old SDS files, confirm origin and custody records, chase missing attestations, and rebuild the final packet under deadline pressure.
Outcome
When the retailer audit window opened, the team did not rebuild the packet from scratch. Valent had kept the evidence current, so the final bundle could be released the same day after approval.
What Valent did
The work became a controlled evidence workflow
Valent mapped requirements to source evidence, queued the right reviews, and kept the final release record intact.
How Valent helped
Mapped retailer and MoCRA requirements into a requirement-level packet structure.
Connected supplier documents to the exact claims they supported.
Kept evidence gaps visible in the Trust Grid between audit cycles.
Held supplier chases and bundle release behind human approval gates.
Generated a signed, versioned bundle with source references preserved.
Workflow in place
Supplier evidence intake organized SDS, COA, origin, allergen, and custody documents.
Monitoring surfaced stale records and missing signatures before the audit window.
The review queue gave Quality and Regulatory one place to approve or revise actions.
The final Audit Bundle exported with release history and hash attached.
