With its ability to  automatically map supply chains while simultaneously cleaning data, it has  become a go-to tool for brands collaboratively disclosing their supply chain  data, rather than maintaining disparate spreadsheets and PDFs. Join us to  learn how outdoor brands are benefitting from disclosing their supply chain  data on the OAR, and how the EOG plans to use the OAR in its upcoming work.
