## Description

RMI announced release of a new “standard suite” intended to provide a common framework to assess environmental, social, occupational health & safety (OHS), and governance risks in operations and mineral supply chains. While not a CMRT template-version release, this update is directly relevant for CMRT programs because it can influence due diligence expectations and program alignment used alongside CMRT-based supplier outreach and risk evaluation.
