Follow the legal entity
Track company status, registered details, directors and officers against the supplier’s official company identifier.
Match suppliers to legal entities, monitor available status, ownership and financial-filing records, and turn supported changes into sourced briefings for procurement to review.
Focused on company-record evidence. Use your existing systems for delivery performance, cyber, ESG, sanctions and spend exposure.
A supplier’s company record can change between reviews. Bring those changes back into your supplier due diligence process, with the context needed to decide what deserves attention.
Track company status, registered details, directors and officers against the supplier’s official company identifier.
Explore recorded shareholders and group structures. See where different suppliers share a corporate connection.
Know when financial statements become available. Compare reported figures with their periods, currency and source.
Coverage, available fields and change history depend on the country and source. Explore data availability →
CompanyDelta is the company-record layer for supplier review. It helps procurement establish which legal entity sits behind a vendor record, what supported corporate facts changed and which evidence needs human review. It does not replace the operational, cyber, ESG or screening systems that answer different questions.
| Decision area | CompanyDelta evidence | Keep from another system |
|---|---|---|
| Supplier identity | Legal name, jurisdiction, company identifier, status and available registered details. | Your supplier ID, contract party, purchase orders, contacts and approved bank details. |
| Governance and ownership | Available directors, officers, shareholders, parent relationships, source dates and recorded changes. | Sanctions and PEP screening, legal interpretation, declarations and enhanced due-diligence evidence. |
| Financial filings | Newly available statements, reported periods, currencies and comparable filed figures where supported. | Credit scores, credit limits, forecasts, payment behaviour and your internal exposure. |
| Supplier operations | A company-record change can open a review and supply the supporting corporate evidence. | Delivery, quality, service, contract, cyber, ESG, news and operational-continuity signals. |
A company-record finding is evidence for a review, not a supplier-risk verdict. Combine it with your policy, relationship data and specialist sources before making a decision. For the operating model, read the supplier monitoring guide →
Choose a representative portfolio band and the company-record categories that matter. The planner turns those choices into a practical pilot outline. It runs in your browser; your selections are not submitted.
Legal identity and status; Ownership and group relationships.
This is a planning aid, not a coverage or volume promise. A production proposal depends on entity matching, jurisdictions, fields, sources, monitoring scope and integration requirements.
Northstar’s recorded corporate shareholder increases its holding. Your agent compares the records, checks the available relationships and prepares a briefing for the supplier owner.
The result connects a company-level change to your wider supplier portfolio, so your team can decide whether related suppliers also need a review.
Prepared for your team. No supplier decision or system update has been made.
A reliable implementation preserves your supplier reference while separating identity resolution, change detection and the final business decision.
Resolve each vendor record to a legal entity using country and identifiers. Retain unresolved matches and confirm field-level coverage before monitoring.
Choose supported company changes that matter to your policy. Keep previous and current values, source context, effective or filing dates, detection date and failed checks visible.
Route the sourced briefing to a named owner. Record the decision, then use CSV, API or webhooks only after permissions and delivery behaviour have been tested.
A supplier’s trading name is only part of the picture. The registered company behind it can appoint new directors, change shareholders or publish new accounts. Bring those facts into the conversation with the person responsible for that supplier.
| Company change | Why procurement may review it | Useful follow-up |
|---|---|---|
| Recorded legal status changes | The legal entity you contracted with has a different recorded status. | Inspect the official record and ask the supplier owner whether the relationship needs review. |
| Ownership changes | Your previous ownership assessment may no longer describe the current record. | Compare holdings and identify other suppliers connected through the recorded shareholder. |
| Directors or officers change | Your governance information and supplier contacts may need checking. | Review the appointment or resignation details and decide which internal records need updating. |
| New financial statements appear | Your supplier review can use a newer reporting period. | Compare available reported figures and accounting scope, then prepare questions for the supplier. |
A list of suppliers does not show whether those companies are connected. Recorded parent and shareholder relationships help your team understand where several suppliers belong to a common corporate structure.
In the example above, Alder Holdings appears in three supplier records. The ownership change is relevant to Northstar’s review, while the shared shareholder gives procurement a reason to inspect the wider relationship.
Company counts describe the recorded connections. Measuring purchasing concentration also requires your spend, contract or category data; a corporate link alone cannot establish operational dependency.
Understand the ownership evidence →A supplier intelligence platform connects supplier records with external evidence and workflows so procurement can identify the legal entity, understand relevant changes and route a review. CompanyDelta focuses on registered company facts, governance, ownership, group relationships and filed financial information where available.
It extends the company-record review beyond onboarding. A procurement analyst can investigate a status change, new owner or financial filing using the previous and updated records. The supplier owner then decides whether further questions, additional checks or an internal update are needed.
CompanyDelta is deliberately narrower: it provides company-record identity, changes and sourced review evidence. It does not combine every operational, cyber, ESG, sanctions, news or performance signal into a composite score. Use it as an evidence layer alongside the specialist and internal systems required by your policy.
No. This solution covers company records, governance, ownership and filed financial information. It does not provide a complete picture of supplier performance, delivery reliability, cyber exposure, sanctions or ESG. Use these company-record findings alongside the other information your procurement process requires.
The investigation uses the available company snapshots and detected events to prepare a sourced explanation. For an ownership change, it can compare the recorded holdings and summarise the supported relationships. Your team reviews the evidence and controls the next action. Live investigations require configured data and AI connections.
Available parent and shareholder records can reveal corporate connections across your portfolio. A common shareholder, a recorded parent and a shared director are different types of relationship. Each needs to be presented with its evidence; a similar name or common address is not enough to establish group membership.
Keep your internal supplier reference against each matched company. Your technical team can use CSV, API and webhooks to bring company events into an existing process. Connector configuration, access permissions and delivery behaviour should be tested before a live workflow depends on them.
No. CompanyDelta uses registry and financial data, including comparisons of reported figures where available. Partner credit ratings, credit limits and composite supplier scores are outside this product. A financial movement is a reason to investigate, not a prediction of payment or delivery performance.
The workspace supports on-demand company checks. Recurring monitoring requires an active data connection and a configured schedule. Source updates vary by jurisdiction and dataset. A failed or incomplete check needs to remain visible so that an absence of new findings is not mistaken for a successful check.
Start with a representative list containing country, registration number where known, internal reference and responsible owner. Measure entity-match resolution, field-level coverage, useful findings, reviewer effort, false positives and actions taken. Confirm how unsupported data and failed checks remain visible before agreeing production monitoring.
Assess legal-entity matches, field-level country coverage and the supplier changes your procurement team would review.
