made. Frontier

Look beyond your border. Make compliance provable across every tier.

A sovereign ESG and supply chain engine made to automate multi-tiered vendor verification — every risk score, Scope 3 attribution, and Modern Slavery flag carrying its supplier-attested evidence and verification step on the made. Ledger, so legal and the regulator audit a trail, not a number.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which regulations does made. Frontier cover?

The Australian Modern Slavery Act and state equivalents, AASB sustainability disclosure standards (including Scope 1/2/3 emissions), Anti-Bribery and Corruption obligations, sanctions and AML obligations, and a growing library of sector-specific environmental codes. Voluntary frameworks (CDP, SBTi, TCFD, ISSB) are also supported.

How does it differ from made. Shield?

Different jobs, complementary. made. Shield is the internal governance brain — mapping your own operations against the regulations you have to defend. made. Frontier looks outward — at the suppliers, sub-tier vendors, and external footprint your enterprise is accountable for. Many customers run both: Shield for internal, made. Frontier for external.

How do suppliers actually respond to the questionnaires?

made. Frontier supports the formats suppliers already use — PDF questionnaires, structured forms, portal exports, email attachments, even free-form correspondence. It parses each and reconciles to the underlying question. Suppliers don't need to learn a new system; you don't need to spend twelve months migrating them.

What if a supplier won't disclose its sub-tier suppliers?

made. Frontier triangulates from public sources — corporate registries, beneficial-ownership disclosures, customs data, shipping records, sanctions lists — to surface likely sub-tier relationships even where the direct supplier hasn't disclosed them. Confidence is scored and the gaps are made visible for follow-up.

How is the Scope 3 estimate audit-defensible?

Every emission attribution is traceable to the underlying spend record, vendor disclosure, or activity-based factor used. The methodology — spend-based, hybrid, or activity-based per category — is recorded with the reported figure, in the format external assurance providers expect. Vendor-reported actuals replace estimates as they arrive, with the change history preserved.

How does the made. Ledger apply to made. Frontier?

Every supplier risk score, sub-tier reconstruction, Scope 3 attribution, and Modern Slavery classification is written to the made. Ledger — paired with the supplier-attested evidence, public-source triangulation, and methodology that produced it. Directors sign statutory statements off a trail, not an assertion; external assurance providers verify the chain of authority directly; regulators receive defensible evidence rather than a reverse-engineered summary.

How is the data secured?

made. Frontier runs on the same sovereign, ring-fenced architecture as every made. Platform. Stored data is Australian-hosted and encrypted at rest. Where inference runs off-shore, it runs only on Zero Data Retention providers — and your data is never used to train external public models. See the shared architecture.

Mandatory accountability has outpaced manual capacity.

For procurement & legal

Hundreds of vendors, thousands of statutory declarations, opaque sub-tier supply chains, and unverified international shipping logs. Modern Slavery, Scope 3, and sector-specific environmental rules all demand verification — and the questionnaire pile keeps growing.

For the board

Mandatory statements need signatures. Directors are accountable for assertions about supply chains they can't physically see. The cost of a single missed Modern Slavery finding or misstated Scope 3 figure is reputational, regulatory, and increasingly personal.

Four capabilities. One supply chain sentinel.

made. Frontier sits above procurement and global logistics — ingesting multi-tiered vendor documentation, cross-referencing international risk indices, and continuously scoring your ESG and supply chain exposure.

01

Multi-Tiered Vendor Verification

See past tier-one. Verify the tiers below.

Most enterprises only know their tier-one suppliers. made. Frontier ingests questionnaires, statutory declarations, and beneficial-ownership data across multiple tiers — and surfaces the sub-tier suppliers your direct vendors haven't disclosed.

Key Benefits
  • Reads unstructured vendor questionnaires and statutory declarations
  • Reconstructs sub-tier supplier relationships automatically
  • Flags ownership opacity, sanctions hits, and adverse media
  • Vendor onboarding pack drafted automatically per category
02

Modern Slavery & Human Rights Monitoring

Statutory exposure, classified in real time

made. Frontier classifies every supplier against Modern Slavery Act criteria and international human rights frameworks, ranks exposure by category and geography, and generates the structured evidence needed for your annual statutory statement.

Key Benefits
  • Modern Slavery Act statement drafted from live evidence
  • Geography-adjusted risk scoring against international indices
  • Remediation tracking for high-risk suppliers
  • Audit-defensible evidence chain for every classification
03

Scope 3 Carbon Synthesis

Reportable emissions, beyond your four walls

Scope 3 is where the carbon hides — across thousands of upstream and downstream suppliers, mostly unreported. made. Frontier estimates, attributes, and structures supplier emissions into the disclosure-ready format the regulator (and your board) is asking for.

Key Benefits
  • Spend-based and activity-based estimation across all 15 categories
  • Vendor-reported actuals replace estimates as they arrive
  • Methodology aligned with GHG Protocol and AASB sustainability standards
  • Disclosure-ready output for annual and interim sustainability reports
04

Continuous Supplier Risk Scoring

Anomalies caught before they become headlines

Supplier risk is dynamic. made. Frontier watches for behavioural anomalies — sudden changes in shipping patterns, ownership shifts, sanctions exposure, adverse media — and re-scores the supplier portfolio in real time. The board sees risk early, not after.

Key Benefits
  • Real-time monitoring against sanctions, PEP, and adverse-media feeds
  • Anomaly detection on shipping, invoicing, and ownership patterns
  • Heat-map view of the portfolio, by category and geography
  • Trigger-based alerts to procurement, legal, and the risk committee

How it works

01

Connect procurement

made. Frontier reads from your vendor master, procurement system, and existing questionnaire library — wherever the supplier data already lives.

02

Map the obligations

Select the statutory regimes and voluntary frameworks you have to defend — Modern Slavery, Scope 3, sector codes, customer ESG asks.

03

Verify continuously

Multi-tier verification runs against international indices. Supplier risk and Scope 3 emissions are scored, attributed, and explained in plain English.

04

Statements on demand

Modern Slavery statements, ESG reports, and board posture packs are generated from the live evidence — signed off, not reverse-engineered.

What changes

made. Frontier handles:

  • Vendor questionnaire intake, parsing, and verification
  • Sub-tier supplier reconstruction
  • Modern Slavery, Scope 3, and sector framework classification
  • Continuous supplier risk re-scoring
  • Statutory statement and board ESG report drafting

Your procurement & legal teams are freed for:

  • Engaging suppliers on remediation, not chasing forms
  • Strategic portfolio decisions on supplier consolidation
  • Briefing the board with current, defensible posture
  • Responding to investor and customer ESG queries fast
  • Building genuinely responsible supply chains, not paper ones

made. Frontier doesn't replace your sustainability and procurement teams. It makes their assertions provable.

What you get

Board-grade certainty

Statutory statements grounded in live evidence. Directors sign with the confidence that the assertions can be defended at audit.

Supply chain visibility

Tier-two and tier-three suppliers surface. Concentration risk, geopolitical exposure, and sanctions hits land on the radar early.

Administrative recovery

Months of statement preparation become a single executive review. The legal and procurement teams reclaim the work that needs judgment.

Runs on the made. Ledger

Every vendor risk score, Scope 3 attribution, and Modern Slavery flag carries the supplier-attested evidence and verification step that produced it — so legal and the regulator audit a trail, not a number, and directors sign statutory statements with the chain of authority already exportable.

Make the supply chain visible. Make the assertions provable.
