We’re excited to share our latest sponsored episode of the **Auto Supply Chain Prophets podcast**, featuring AIAG’s Vice President of Supply Chain and Corporate Responsibility, **Tanya Bolden**.

In this episode, Tanya highlights how AIAG brings suppliers and OEMs together to **exchange ideas, debate challenges, and build best practices** that strengthen the entire supply chain. It’s not just discussion — it’s where your voice and input help shape **common solutions that move the industry forward**.

One example of this collaboration in action is the **International Material Data System (IMDS)**. Originally developed for material reporting, IMDS is now evolving to include **carbon footprint data at the part level**. With new European legislation demanding greater visibility, this expansion is a critical step in preparing companies for the future.

As Tanya explains, collaboration isn’t just valuable — it’s essential. By working together, suppliers, OEMs, and stakeholders can address today’s challenges while building a stronger, more resilient supply chain for tomorrow.
