PARTNERSHIP | THE RESPONSIBLE MICA INITIATIVE & TILKAL

Updated: May 30, 2022






THE RESPONSIBLE MICA INITIATIVE & TILKAL LAUNCHING FIRST MULTI-STAKEHOLDER
BLOCKCHAIN-BASED SOLUTION TO IMPROVE TRACEABILITY ACROSS MICA SUPPLY CHAINS








Paris, France – July 13, 2021 – The Responsible Mica Initiative (RMI) and Tilkal
are pleased to announce their collaboration in the development of a solution
that will improve traceability across mica supply chains using blockchain
technology.











Since its creation in 2017, the Responsible Mica Initiative has been working
towards the establishment of a fair, responsible and sustainable mica supply
chain where child labor and poor working conditions are eradicated. Timely and
accurate data collection across the entire mica supply chain – from mines and
processors to intermediate and end-use industries – has been a key organization
tool. Blockchain-based traceability data platform from Tilkal, a pioneer in the
field, will enable RMI to better understand its mica supply chain. Adoption of
Tilkal's system will improve data transparency while maintaining security and
providing a flexible, cost-efficient and auditable traceability system.






"From day one, we've known that our ability to trace mica to and from end-users
and mines would be key to our success," explained Fanny Fremont, RMI Executive
Director. " The state-of-the-art blockchain tool from Tilkal that we're going to
use will take our program to the next level, giving us more detailed and timely
data. Blockchain will help us monitor our supply chains, identify where & who
RMI can further support and make responsible mica sourcing a reality in the
communities we serve."






"Working with RMI is an incredible opportunity and a huge responsibility
altogether. At Tilkal we are always proud of how our innovative platform
supports our customers’ supply chains: yet supporting a mission-driven
organization like RMI in its social cause is particularly rewarding" said
Matthieu Hug, Chief Executive Officer of Tilkal. "Besides this initiative from
RMI to secure mica supply chains is unique in its breadth and ambition,
considering the wide variety of industrials from around the world joining
forces.”







WHY A NEXT GENERATION TRACEABILITY TOOL FOR THE MICA SUPPLY CHAIN?






RMI has used confidential mica supply chain mapping since 2017 but the process
has been manual. Today, with more than 70 mica supply chain members drawn from a
wide range of industries located on different continents, a manual system is
unduly labor intensive, cumbersome and lacks the sophistication needed to
support transparency and optimize data formats and reporting in ways that can
advance RMI goals. There are a number of specific benefits of Tilkal's software:



· Traceability of mica will significantly improve 360° knowledge of the supply
chain, enabling thorough mapping and verification of all members committed to
implement responsible workplace practices.



· By sharing a common database, RMI members will promote transparency across
mica supply chains, enabling more efficient risk identification and easier
reporting processes.



· Tilkal's technology offers better insights into the sustainability performance
along the mica supply chain and enables RMI to customize support to improve
workplace practices among all stakeholders.







HOW TILKAL’S SOLUTION WILL HELP?






By efficiently capturing information along the mica supply chain in a
decentralized network, Tilkal's traceability solution will reduce complexity
while offering greater flexibility and auditability. Blockchain technology
provides the necessary foundation to build such a network for sharing end-to-end
traceability data, a field in which Tilkal is paving the way. The system is also
designed to ensure confidentiality of individual member data.






About the Responsible Mica Initiative

organizations and local stakeholders. The Responsible Mica Initiative is an
