    RMI Templates Guide 2026

    CMRT, EMRT and AMRT: how to choose, complete, check and automate the work

    A practical guide for teams working with RMI Minerals Reporting Templates, updated for CMRT 6.6, EMRT 2.11 and AMRT 1.31.

    What the guide covers

    The guide explains which RMI template to use, what each one covers, how to send or complete a request, and how to review returned files before using them in your due diligence process.

    It also explains how beSirius can reduce the manual work around RMI reporting by reusing supplier and product data you already have, collecting only what is missing, validating facilities and answers, and generating the current CMRT, EMRT or AMRT for review.

    How beSirius fits into the RMI reporting process

    beSirius keeps RMI reporting connected to the supplier and evidence record instead of treating each spreadsheet as a separate annual task.

    The workflow starts with the suppliers and evidence already in scope. beSirius then helps teams collect the missing information, check facility identifiers, contradictions, broken validations and template versions, and return the current CMRT, EMRT or AMRT for review and submission.

    The same supplier records can also support broader supplier due diligence, customer requests and recurring monitoring, so the work does not have to be rebuilt for every new template or questionnaire.

    Who this guide is for

    Sustainability, responsible sourcing, compliance and procurement teams that send, complete or review CMRT, EMRT or AMRT files.

    Why the distinction matters

    RMI Minerals Reporting Templates are standard formats for exchanging mineral sourcing and facility information through the supply chain. Completing an MRT does not by itself establish compliance, certification or RMAP conformance.

    The guide shows where the template ends and where further supplier follow-up, facility-status checks or due diligence review may still be needed.
