No. The risk score is an assessment produced within Woodguard. It is based on the captured data, evidence and defined risk factors and comes with visible reasoning – it is not an official or legally prescribed value.

Through guided input forms, structured uploads or imports. Woodguard defines which fields and records are expected and shows what is still missing – instead of collecting unstructured attachments in inboxes.

Expiry dates are monitored. Before expiry a notification is raised and, if configured, a task is assigned. If a record does expire, completeness changes – and so does the assessment.

Coordinates and polygons are assigned to production areas and made analysable together with origin and supply chain data. Woodguard brings the evidence and data sources together; assessment is based on that data.

The assessment logic works with named factors such as country, supplier, product, documentation and geolocation risk. Weightings and additional factors can be adapted to the reality of your portfolio.

Every assessment can be traced back to its basis: the document versions used, the risks identified, the measures carried out and the timestamp of every change are documented.
