iCiX is the leading exchange for compliance information management. iCiX enables quality assurance and regulatory professionals to manage compliance issues and obligations. The web-based network allows users throughout the supply chain to confidentially broadcast and manage their compliance documentation.

ICiX is a third-party web-based software vendor that obtains and manages regulatory documentation such as test results and General Conformity Certificates (GCC) as required under the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act (CPSIA). One really unique and innovative thing about the iCiX program is that it offers suppliers a secure web-based tool to house and share compliance information such as test reports and GCCs, not only for Walmart but also with other retail customers.

iCiX is not a laboratory or auditing company but more of a clearinghouse where testing labs and certification companies can post validated information and documentation directly to the suppliers’ iCiX sites, and where the suppliers, in turn, can share that information with those to whom the suppliers give permission.

The iCiX was launched in Melbourne, Australia in 2001.
