How FRDM AI helps EU‑regulated Companies Streamline Compliance
From mapping multi-tiered supplier chains and screening for modern slavery to ESG tracking and automated reporting, the list of tasks is extensive—and expensive. FRDM AI allows companies to stack due diligence tasks saving your firm time and money.
The Problem:
Disconnected Compliance Efforts
Typically, firms struggle with:
Manual processes—repeated supplier questionnaires, spreadsheets, and audits.
Fragmented tools—different platforms for human rights, environmental, trade, and certification checks.
Redundant workflows—doing the same supplier mapping and risk ranking multiple times.
Reporting burdens—separate formats for CSDDD, CSRD< EUDR, LkSG, others.
This often means weeks to months of internal resources—and tens or hundreds of thousands in consulting fees—burned just to stay compliant.
FRDM AI’s Unified Compliance Platform
The Stacking Solution
One Supplier Map for Everything
FRDM AI ingests your spend and invoice data and maps up to 8 supplier tiers automatically—then re‑uses that map for:
- Trade and tariffs (UFLPA, CTPAT, export restrictions)
- Human rights (UFLPA, LkSG, UK MSA)
- ESG (CSDDD, CSRD, EUDR)\Forced‑labour and environmental oversight (EUFLR)
- Forced‑labour and environmental oversight (EUFLR)
All tasks draw from the same underlying dataset and supplier information.
AI‑Driven Automation Across Tasks
From risk ranking to policy assessments and ongoing monitoring, FRDM AI replaces:
- Up to 80% of manual supplier questionnaires.
- Re‑used insights across compliance modules
- Automated reporting for multiple regulations
One Dashboard, Multiple Outputs

Cutting Real Costs—Here’s How
By stacking tasks on one platform, companies are seeing:
- Time savings:
- Supplier mapping and assessments that once took 8–12 weeks now done in 2–3 weeks
- Ongoing monitoring and renewals reduced from 100s of person-hours quarterly to under 10
- Supplier mapping and assessments that once took 8–12 weeks now done in 2–3 weeks
- Cost savings:
- Avoiding multiple consultant contracts (+$100K each)
- Cutting redundant systems fees
- Maximizing ROI on a single platform (unit-based pricing scales with monitored suppliers)
- Avoiding multiple consultant contracts (+$100K each)
Mitigating Enforcement Risks—and Hidden Costs
- Human rights risk: In 2025, more than 150 companies saw goods seized under UFLPA—over $3.1 billion of cargo impacted
- Trade disruption: Geopolitical blockages in 2024 caused $212 billion in disrupted trade
- The cost of non‑compliance—fines, reputational damage, lost procurement deals—is steep. By stacking compliance efforts, FRDM AI significantly lowers the odds of such events.
