Software Supply ChainOpen Source Governance.
Rapid. Robust. Reliable.

 As a systems integrator, you must provide complex solutions – fast. You know that software supply chains are more intricate than ever and using open source code is often the best way to speed development while reducing costs. But you also recognize the importance of strict intellectual property (IP) and open source governance. Your clients need validation of software origins and obligations as part of their final acceptance criteria, they require assurances their code is not mixed with another customer’s code, and you need to deliver their requirements fully and on time.

Black Duck can help you accurately validate and manage code origins, open source licensing and open source compliance:

  • Automate solutions. Use an automated system for open source scanning and tracking to inventory code origins and licenses, compare these with client requirements, and recommend changes to ensure open source compliance. Provide a complete bill of materials to clients, confident that the open source code you use meets all requirements.
  • Build and maintain an approved code library. Meet client needs quickly and effectively by creating and updating a centralized repository of approved code, and custom knowledge bases of customer IP. Manage multiple projects with hundreds -- or thousands -- of components and code snippets and their associated licensing obligations.
  • Accelerate code reuse. Practice and encourage managed code reuse to accelerate time-to-market, improve quality control, mitigate legal and business issues and reduce costs.
