An integrated data pipeline has been proposed to meet requirements for visibility, supervision and control in global supply chains. How can data integration be used for risk assessment, monitoring and control in global supply chains? We argue that concepts from model-based auditing can be used to model the ‘ideal’ flow of money and goods, and by identifying deficiencies, to determine possible risks concerning safety and regulatory compliance. In particular, we propose to use the ‘value-cycle model’ for describing economic transactions, and connect the expected economic status transitions to the physical flow of goods. The model will be illustrated by a case study of the trade lane of a retail organization trading between China and United Kingdom.
