You know the mill. You know the suppliers. But do you know every origin behind them?

Where palm oil due diligence gets difficult

Connecting mill, plantation and plot

Palm oil can pass through multiple suppliers, collection points, mills and processing stages before reaching downstream products. Reliable origin data is essential to connect the material purchased with the production plots, risk information and evidence behind it.

Selected challenges

Tier-n origin visibility

A mill can aggregate material from many suppliers and production plots. The challenge is maintaining reliable visibility to the origins behind the relevant product.

Connect supplier, mill and production-origin data. Collect or ingest plot geolocation and supporting information without creating another disconnected data silo.

Certification data as evidence

Certification can inform your assessment, but it does not automatically replace the EUDR due diligence process or the evidence required for the relevant product.

Connect supplier and certification data with plot-level geolocation, and check that it is complete, plausible and usable before it becomes the basis of a due diligence decision.

Legality assessment

Deforestation is only part of the assessment. Operators also need adequately conclusive and verifiable information that production complies with relevant laws in the country of production.

Connect country-of-production requirements and supporting evidence to the due diligence process, next to deforestation risk, and keep the decision transparent.

Risk workflows at scale

Thousands of plots, suppliers and documents turn a theoretically clear process into an operational data and workflow challenge.

Assess origins in bulk, route exceptions for review, and trigger evidence requests and supplier engagement instead of handling every origin as a manual case. Embed it in your ERP through API integration.

Why palm oil origins matter

Origin visibility is fundamental to responsible palm oil sourcing.

01 Production origin

Plantations and smallholder plots where the relevant commodity is produced. The challenge: many plots are unmapped and lack formal land titles, making plot-level geolocation and deforestation-free proof hard to obtain

How osapiens helps

Reach the smallholders behind the mill.

Collect or ingest plot geolocation, validate it, and assess deforestation and legality risk plot by plot. Missing registration and land-status evidence goes to suppliers as structured requests instead of email chains.

Origins by country

Different origins, different legal requirements. The same need for traceability and geolocation.

Most palm oil enters the EU from Indonesia and Malaysia, followed by Guatemala, Papua New Guinea and Honduras. What counts as legal production depends on the country. What you need to prove does not.

Legality

Acceptable land rights, permits, registrations and other requirements look different for every country.

Traceability

Traceability across the full supply chain requires linking the product to mills, collection points and plots - no mass balance allowed.

Geolocation

Accessibility of valid plot-level coordinates is not the same across countries. Some origins require workarounds and extra validation.

Country benchmark as set by the European Commission in May 2025. Figures on smallholder area and MSPO coverage are industry and public-sector estimates and change over time.

Already certified? Build on it.

RSPO and ISCC Plus can support your EUDR process. They don't replace it.

Certification schemes can provide valuable information on sustainable sourcing, traceability and risk. Under EUDR, operators still need to meet the applicable due diligence requirements. Certification can support that process as evidence, but it is not a substitute for it.

Build on what you already have

Seamlessly integrate certificates into your risk assessment. Use supplier and certification data as part of the evidence base rather than rebuilding your process from zero.

See how osapiens builds on existing data

Your EUDR Process still needs to cover:

Plot-level geolocation

Collect the required geolocation information for the plots where the relevant commodity was produced.

Risk assessment & mitigation

Assess and document whether there is no or only negligible risk that relevant products are non-compliant, where the applicable due diligence process requires it.

Due Diligence Statement

Submit the required DDS through the EUDR Information System where a DDS is required for the operator and product in question.

Know your origins - Palm oil

Drive operational excellence in your palm oil supply chain: from origin to EUDR compliance.
