Compliance

Audit-ready, every day. Not just the week before close.

Strong Systems was built by people who've sat across the table from a TTB auditor. Every reading your team enters becomes a defensible line on a regulatory form — without a separate compliance system, a separate accounting system, or a separate spreadsheet to reconcile them.

Fermentation tanks, copper stills, aging barrels, and a live production dashboard.
From the still floor to the filing

Every reading becomes a defensible line.

Fermentation, distillation, aging, and transfers are captured once as operators work — then rolled straight into TTB and state filings with the supporting transactions attached to every number.

Regulatory scope

TTB (federal)

Form 5110 line items, Storage / Processing / Production accounts, transfer-in-bond, and excise tax worksheets — rolled up from your actual operations, with one-click period close.

State DSP

Monthly state reports (CO, KY, TX, CA and more on request), bailment ledgers, and direct-shipping compliance with per-state product registrations.

OSHA & safety

Incident log, near-miss tracking, training records, and PPE checklists — backed by the same audit trail your TTB filing uses.

FDA FSMA / FSVP

Lot and supplier traceability across raw materials, batches, and finished cases. Recall-ready in minutes, not days.

How a clean close happens

One pipeline from the still floor to the filing.

01
Operators enter readings once

Mash, fermentation, distillation, transfers, dumps, fills, and ships — captured on the screen they’re already using.

02
The system aggregates in real time

Proof gallons, losses, gains, and transfers update as they happen. Every record links to the actor, vessel, and parent batch.

03
Period close runs against your data

TTB 5110, state reports, and any custom rollup is generated from the same numbers you can see on the dashboard.

04
Hand the auditor a packet

Export a signed PDF and a CSV with every supporting transaction. Your TTB agent or CPA can drill from line item to operator.

Why auditors actually accept it

Defensibility built into the data model.

We didn't bolt compliance on after the fact. These properties are how the platform stores every transaction.

  • Every record signed with the operator id, timestamp, and the IP/device that captured it.
  • Immutable history: corrections are appended as new entries with the reason, not overwritten.
  • Tax-paid vs. bonded inventory tracked at the SKU and warehouse level — never commingled.
  • Variance analysis built-in: known-loss vs. unknown-loss is flagged before you file.
  • Time-zone aware so a midnight transfer falls into the right reporting period.

HR records, kept the same way as production records.

Onboarding checklists, role permissions, training certifications, hours worked on a still or bottling line, and termination workflows — captured in the same audit log so labor compliance isn't a side project.
