ESG analytics
Taulia’s ESG analytics tool empowers you to reach and reward suppliers based on ESG performance or for reasons of economic justice, elevating your own ESG initiatives. 



The analytics is an out-of-the-box solution for both DD and SCF and provides a comprehensive view of ESG progress across the supply chain so that you can maximize your impact.
Easily incorporate multiple data sources — ESG rating agencies, supplier attestations, and data you may already have – to improve your supply chain’s ESG impact.

Introducing Program Gap Trend
A new diagram in our analytics package, Program Gap Trend, demonstrates to customers how to maximize the value you extract from Taulia by giving you a roadmap to improve outcomes and easy action steps. Monitor your performance and improvement over time.

Release of our new supplier bank account change risk score for Taulia’s Supplier Management product*
For customers utilizing Taulia’s Supplier Management* product, all supplier bank account change requests will now be scored against a set of risk criteria to help customers better align their internal audit and process controls around validating and approving bank changes. This keeps you and your suppliers safe by safeguarding against the updates not initiated by suppliers.



*This product feature may not be available to some customers who use older versions of the SIM product. Please consult your Account Director for any questions.

Invoicing
Launch of universal invoice capture via email
For invoices submitted via email, the ability to use computer vision (with OCR) combined with machine learning to allow for electronic invoice data to be captured from any invoice image, regardless of its format, and with no pre-training required. This increases the ease of use for your suppliers and creates fewer barriers to their onboarding and staying with the platform.

Rollout of new functionality to support suppliers uploading invoices through CSV
Allows suppliers to quickly and easily upload many invoices in bulk while still gaining all the invoice validations that are provided in the supplier portal. Enabling suppliers to submit invoices in the way that they are most comfortable ensures their continued use of the platform.
