You link the forest or farm to the manufacturer. Lot identity lost here is lost for everyone after you.
What We Often Hear
- Source-lot identity is often lost once logs are received and mixed in the yard.
- Transit passes, auction lots, invoices and weighbridge slips sit in different files.
- Each customer sends its own questionnaire and asks for the same documents again.
- Batch-wise production and material balance records are often missing or rebuilt late.

S360 is the system, not the requirement. Standards, regulations and buyer requirements are inputs; we build one way of working that answers them together.
Where standards or certification are relevant, these systems can also support certification readiness and independent assessment. Contributes to SDG 15, Life on Land.
Questions We Are Asked
Does S360 certify my organisation?
No. S360 is not a certification body. We help you prepare; certification decisions rest with independent certification bodies.
Can we use the digital platform on its own?
Yes. Modules may be used independently, inside an implementation engagement, or connected to the systems you already run.
Do you work with what we already have?
Yes. We start from your current procedures, records and systems, and keep what already works.
A supplier your certified customers can approve and keep.
