01 — The gap
Supply-chain compliance · U.S. drone manufacturers
Nothing in your supply chain goes unseen.
Continuous screening,
freshness tracking,
dated evidence.
01 — The gap
The parts list is in a spreadsheet. The supplier declarations are in a folder of PDFs, some of them two years old. The rules moved in December. Somebody knows most of it.
Nobody can prove all of it.
01 — The gap
The part that fails you is two tiers down.
Your record stops at the supplier who invoiced you. The entity that puts you out of compliance is usually the one behind them — and nothing in that folder reaches that far.
02 — What Panoptical does
Three questions. One system of record.
Are we compliant? What should we check? Prove it. One record answers all three — live, for every platform you build, resolved down to the individual part instead of filed as a folder.
Step 01
Declare
Your platforms, parts, and suppliers — captured with the origin factors that actually decide the outcome, including firmware separately from hardware, and who administers your data separately from where it lives.
Step 02
Connect
Reads from where your BOM already lives — Drive, spreadsheets, CSV exports. You don’t restructure your engineering data to fit a compliance tool.
Step 03
Screen
The screening factors that genuinely apply to your parts, your suppliers, and the buyer you’re selling to — surfaced before a contracting officer asks, and filtered so a commercial platform isn’t drowning in DoD-only findings.
Step 04
Watch
Declarations have an age. Government lists have a version. Approvals and waivers have an expiry. Panoptical tracks all three and tells you when something you were relying on quietly went stale.
Step 05
Prove
A dated evidence package tied to the exact declarations, supplier tiers, and government list versions in force on the day you shipped. The question is never are we compliant now — it’s were we compliant then.
03 — Where we stop
We don’t certify. We make your case provable.
Panoptical tells you what to check, keeps the evidence current, and assembles the record you present. The determination itself stays where it belongs — with the government. So when an answer is genuinely unsettled we return needs review rather than guessing pass.
