Awarded for completing Delivering Software Bills of Materials to Customers and passing its exam, demonstrating the ability to write an inventory for the people who will actually open it, choose a format and delivery mechanism from the recipient's tooling, state scope and known gaps explicitly rather than by omission, bind a document to a specific released artefact through versioning and identity, commit to a cadence the organisation can meet, pair the inventory with exploitability statements to reduce recurring support load, control access to shipped documents, and resolve a disagreement between a customer's scanner and the vendor's own assessment through a defined protocol.
Certificates are designed to be checked, not just displayed.
The credential is valid for 12 months from issue. Its public page states the expiry date, and renewing means passing the current exam again — so the credential always reflects the current material.
