SCORE Forum 2026: Turning NDPE Commitments into Practical Supply Chain Transformation

Posted on by Mosaix

With less than a week to go, SCORE Forum 2026 will bring palm oil industry leaders and sustainability practitioners together in Bogor to examine a question that is becoming increasingly important: what happens after supply chain risks are identified?

Bogor, Indonesia — 10 September 2026. Over the past decade, No Deforestation, No Peat and No Exploitation (NDPE) commitments have become an important foundation of responsible palm oil sourcing. Across the industry, companies have invested in sustainability policies, supplier requirements, traceability systems and satellite-based monitoring to better understand where palm oil comes from and where environmental and social risks may occur.

But identifying risk is only the beginning.

As sustainability expectations move increasingly from corporate commitments toward measurable implementation, the challenge facing the palm oil sector is changing. Companies must not only know where risks exist, but also determine what happens next: how suppliers respond, how improvements are verified, how historical problems can be addressed, and how responsible suppliers can remain connected to global markets.

This transition — from commitment to implementation, and ultimately to market access — will be at the centre of the Sustainable Commodities & Responsible Engagement (SCORE) Forum 2026, taking place on 16–17 September 2026 at ASTON Sentul Lake Resort & Conference Center in Bogor, Indonesia. The official forum theme, From Commitments to Market Access, reflects a growing recognition that sustainability is becoming closely connected to supply chain resilience, competitiveness and access to international markets.

Convened by Earthqualizer and Inovasi Digital, SCORE Forum is designed as a working platform for actors across the palm oil value chain. Growers, processors, traders, consumer-goods companies, financial institutions, policymakers, technology providers and sustainability practitioners will come together to explore practical approaches to responsible sourcing and supply chain transformation.

A central question running through the Forum is deceptively simple: What can companies and suppliers practically do once a sustainability risk has been identified?

For years, much of the sustainability conversation has understandably focused on detecting deforestation, mapping supply chains and identifying non-compliance. These systems remain essential. Yet monitoring alone does not restore forests, improve supplier practices or strengthen smallholder livelihoods. Nor does simply removing a supplier from one supply chain necessarily resolve the underlying environmental or social problem.

The next stage of NDPE implementation therefore requires greater attention to supplier engagement, corrective action, recovery and responsible re-entry. The objective is not to weaken sustainability standards, but to create credible mechanisms through which suppliers can stop non-compliant practices, address past impacts, demonstrate measurable improvement and rebuild access to responsible markets.

That discussion is becoming even more relevant as regulatory and market expectations evolve. Traceability, geolocation, deforestation monitoring and evidence-based due diligence are increasingly becoming part of the infrastructure required for market access. At SCORE Forum, sessions will examine responsible supply chains, traceability and monitoring, forest protection and restoration, as well as the implications of changing governance and market requirements.

The programme will combine plenary discussions, moderated panels, technical workshops, multi-stakeholder dialogue and practical Industry Clinics. Topics include NDPE performance, EUDR readiness, traceability systems, ESG reporting and access to financing, creating an opportunity to connect sustainability ambition with the operational and financial realities faced by companies and suppliers.



The Forum will also bring together perspectives from across the regional and international palm oil sector. Confirmed speakers include representatives from Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO), PT Danantara Sumberdaya Indonesia (DSI), the Malaysian Palm Oil Board (MPOB), the Council of Palm Oil Producing Countries(CPOC),  Unilever, Musimmas, Wilmar, Apical, SD Guthrie, Fuji Oil, Bumitama and other organisations spanning production, processing, markets and sustainability.

Within this wider ecosystem, MosaiX contributes a supply-chain intelligence and technology perspective to the transformation challenge. Its work connects traceability and supplier intelligence with deforestation and land-conversion monitoring, NDPE risk assessment and recovery, climate and nature risk intelligence, and smallholder and landscape-level interventions.

The value of these systems increasingly lies not simply in producing another risk map or dashboard, but in connecting information with decisions. A deforestation alert needs to lead to supplier engagement. A traceability gap needs to trigger data improvement. A historical liability needs a credible recovery process. Climate or biodiversity risks need to inform investment and sourcing decisions. And smallholders need pathways that allow them to participate in responsible markets rather than becoming unintended casualties of increasingly complex compliance requirements.

This is where collaboration becomes critical.

No single company, monitoring platform, certification system, financial institution or government agency can transform a commodity supply chain alone. Environmental risks often extend beyond concession boundaries, while suppliers can serve multiple buyers and smallholders frequently operate through complex networks of dealers, mills and intermediaries. Solutions therefore have to work across companies and across landscapes.

SCORE Forum 2026 aims to create space for precisely that conversation: moving beyond the question of who has a sustainability commitment toward the more difficult questions of how those commitments are implemented, how progress is demonstrated, and how transformation can be sustained commercially over time.

Ultimately, the future of responsible palm oil may depend less on adding another commitment and more on making existing commitments work — connecting data with action, risk with recovery, and sustainability performance with continued market access.

On 16–17 September in Bogor, SCORE Forum will bring those conversations into the same room.

Practical Strategies for Indonesian Coffee and Cocoa Businesses to Comply with EUDR and Maintain Access to the EU Market

Posted on by Mosaix

The EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) is changing how coffee and cocoa supply chains need to prepare for market access. For Indonesian businesses, the challenge is no longer only about understanding the regulation, but also about ensuring that the data, documentation, and traceability systems behind their supply chains are ready to support due diligence in practice.

Under EUDR, products entering the EU market must be deforestation-free, legally produced, and traceable to the plot or land level. In practice, this creates significant challenges for exporters, cooperatives, traders, and processors, particularly in smallholder-based supply chains.

This webinar was organized to provide a practical introduction to what EUDR means for Indonesian coffee and cocoa businesses, and to highlight the practical preparation that is now becoming necessary.

For those who missed the session, or for those who would like to revisit the discussion, we are pleased to share the webinar recording below.

MosaiX Highlights the Need to Move Beyond AI and Geospatial Technology Alone at Global Forum in Amsterdam

Posted on by Mosaix

Amsterdam, The Netherlands — Last week, MosaiX joined the Geospatial World Forum 2026 in Amsterdam, where global leaders, technology innovators, policymakers, and geospatial practitioners gathered to discuss how geospatial intelligence can help the world respond to climate risks, disasters, and increasingly complex global supply chains.

Representing MosaiX, Ihwan Rafina, Founder and Director, spoke during the session “Disaster Management in a Multi-Hazard World.” His presentation, “Beyond Compliance: Building a Trusted Geospatial Intelligence Backbone for Deforestation-Free and Hazard-Resilient Supply Chains,” focused on one of the most urgent questions facing sustainability and resilience systems today: how can rapidly evolving geospatial and AI technologies be translated into trusted action on the ground?

Across the world, the race to adopt artificial intelligence, satellite monitoring, remote sensing, and automated risk analytics is accelerating. These technologies are changing how companies detect deforestation, monitor agricultural landscapes, assess disaster risks, and respond to regulatory requirements such as the EU Deforestation Regulation. They allow risks to be seen faster, mapped more clearly, and analyzed at a scale that was not possible a decade ago.

But MosaiX emphasized that technology alone is not enough.

In many agricultural supply chains, the hardest challenge is not simply detecting forest loss from space. The real challenge is proving origin, confirming land legality, understanding tenure, validating supplier information, and ensuring that smallholders and local communities are not left behind. If companies rely only on satellite data or AI-generated analysis, there is a risk of producing conclusions that look precise, but may still be incomplete, biased, or disconnected from local realities.

This is especially important in commodities such as palm oil, cocoa, coffee, and soy, where supply chains are often fragmented and shaped by informal networks, intermediaries, unclear land records, and varying legal frameworks. A satellite image may show a land-use change, but it cannot fully explain who manages the land, whether the plot is legally recognized, whether community rights are involved, or whether the farmer has access to the systems needed to prove compliance.

During the presentation, MosaiX shared that the future of geospatial intelligence should not be framed only as a race for better algorithms. It should also be a race to build better collaboration, stronger field verification, more inclusive data systems, and practical mechanisms that help people act on the information produced.

This is where transformation happens: not only in dashboards, maps, or AI models, but on the ground, through intensive engagement with suppliers, smallholders, communities, governments, civil society, and companies across the value chain.

MosaiX’s work is supported by a wider ecosystem with Inovasi Digital and Earthqualizer Foundation. Inovasi Digital plays a key role in developing practical digital platforms and geospatial tools that help companies translate complex sustainability requirements into operational workflows. These systems support traceability, deforestation-risk screening, compliance monitoring, supplier engagement, and reporting. Earthqualizer Foundation contributes long-standing field experience in forest conservation, community engagement, ecosystem recovery, and commodity-driven landscape transformation.

Together, this ecosystem bridges the gap between technology and implementation. It combines satellite-based intelligence, digital platforms, regulatory understanding, and direct field experience to support supply chains that are not only compliant, but also more resilient, inclusive, and credible.

The message from MosaiX in Amsterdam was clear: geospatial and AI technologies are powerful, but they must be used responsibly. To avoid bias, false confidence, or exclusion, they need to be supported by ground-truthing, participatory mapping, local knowledge, transparent methodologies, and collaborative decision-making.

As climate risks intensify and regulatory pressure grows, industries will increasingly depend on trusted geospatial intelligence. But the success of these systems will depend not only on how fast technology evolves, but on how well it is connected to people, places, and real action.

For MosaiX, this is the next frontier of sustainability and disaster resilience: moving beyond compliance, beyond monitoring, and beyond technology alone, toward a trusted intelligence backbone that supports transformation where it matters most, on the ground.

Assisting Suppliers Readiness for EUDR Implementation with Inovasi Agriplot Due Diligence System

Posted on by Mosaix

The implementation of the EU Deforestation-Free Regulation (EUDR) is fast approaching, requiring operators and traders who wish to market their goods in the European Union to understand and prepare for its requirements. ADM, as one of Inovasi Digital’s partners, markets products to the European market. Therefore, ADM and its suppliers need to comprehend the EUDR requirements. This necessity led to Inovasi Digital’s training for ADM’s suppliers, where EUDR and Inovasi Agriplot, a solution for EUDR compliance, were introduced.

On May 8, 2024, Inovasi Digital held a meeting with ADM suppliers titled “Assisting Supplier Readiness for EUDR Implementation with Inovasi Agriplot Due Diligence System” in Medan, Indonesia. During this event, Inovasi Digital provided suppliers with an introduction to EUDR, outlined the requirements for EUDR compliance, and explained Inovasi Agriplot, a turnkey solution for EUDR assessment and compliance. The objective was to support ADM’s suppliers in preparing for EUDR compliance later this year.

In this meeting, suppliers—including growers, mills, and palm oil dealers—received a presentation on EUDR, covering the history of the regulation, key requirements, and challenges. The goal was to help suppliers understand the real challenges ahead and prepare to meet the requirements. Next, the audience was introduced to the Inovasi Agriplot Due Diligence System, a solution created by Inovasi Digital to address all EUDR requirements for both operators and traders. By introducing the Inovasi Agriplot DDS, ADM suppliers can learn how to ensure a smooth transition to using the system.

Navigating EUDR Requirements: Solutions for Effective Implementation

Posted on by Mosaix

The EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) has been a prominent issue facing many operators across several key commodities who seek to trade them into and out of the European Union (EU). Palm oil is one such commodity, and the EUDR aims to stop deforestation-related commodities from entering supply chains linked to operators in the EU.

On 20th November 2023, Inovasi Digital and MosaiX held an event titled “Navigating EUDR Requirements: Solutions for Effective Implementation” at Black Pond Tavern, in Jakarta. It was hosted by Inovasi Digital and attracted over 60 participants from various companies and organizations concerned with addressing the challenges associated with EUDR implementation.

The event included presentations by Eddy Esselink from the Netherlands Oils and Fats Organization (MVO), who shared the views and concerns of operators, as well as Andrew Ng from MosaiX BV, and Ihwan Rafina from PT Inovasi Digital, who identified and explained the critical EUDR requirements through their presentation titled “EUDR Un-Redacted”. A discussion on the topic followed, which was moderated by Sara Wayne.

The moderator began the session by framing the core requirements of the EUDR for the audience. That included revisiting the evolution of the EU laws and initiatives that led to the adoption of the EUDR. Then she briefly touched upon the demands of the EUDR itself and identified the deforestation as well as legality components

The event was divided into two sessions, the first session included presentations and discussions on the challenges posed by the EUDR and the solutions developed by Inovasi Digital and MosaiX, and the second session was a cocktail event designed to facilitate the building and expansion of professional networks in a relaxed and informal setting. During the first session, the speakers delved into the current state of the palm oil sector, the challenges arising from the newly enforced EU regulation, and the solution developed by MosaiX called Inovasi Agriplot.

Eddy Esselink, Senior Program Manager of Sustainable Development of MVO

Eddy Esselink started the session by explaining that there were many unanswered questions, indicating several aspects of the regulations that remained unclear. He proposed for harmonization in the implementation of the EUDR across jurisdictions. Two specific aspects were highlighted: the need for clarity on the required documents related to legal compliance and the importance of harmonizing information for risk assessments. Eddy called for efforts to engage with governments through a coordinated response.

Andrew Ng, Sustainability Project Manager of Mosaix

The second speaker was Andrew Ng from MosaiX. Andrew covered the various requirements and potential approaches to address the EUDR. The presentation touched on the complexities of gathering verifiable and detailed information. Several approaches were then proposed with an emphasis on the critical need for reliable data sources.

Ihwan Rafina, Technical Director of Inovasi Digital

The last presenter was Ihwan Rafina from Inovasi Digital who expanded on how to address the challenges with an approach used by ID’s InovasiAgriplot system. Ihwan expanded on the types of approaches to determining mapping requirements, deforestation assessments, legal compliance, and closing of traceability gaps. Challenges due to weak points for information gathering include the supplier mills’ information, accessing legal documents, inconsistencies between official and physical data, and other technical complexities explained. Broader issues like different international and national forest definitions were discussed as well.

Ihwan compared certification information disclosure (like RSPO / MSPO) to EUDR requirements and highlighted that potential shortfalls existed that meant considering certification as compliant to EUDR cannot be assumed. Then the presentation showcased the extensive data collected by Inovasi Digital and Mosaix, which would be critical for mapping, traceability, legality, and risk assessments. The extensive data collected across different EUDR-required criteria ensures InovasiAgriplot system would identify compliant supply chains with greater accuracy. The expertise in combining Big-Data, analytics with on-the-ground experience was highlighted as the system’s main risk assessment strength.

The session was followed by a networking event where the conversation continued amongst various operators along the supply chain.
