Distillery Compliance Software

In short: Distillery compliance software keeps a distilled spirits plant audit-ready by building the TTB operational reports and excise return from recorded activity, tracking bond coverage, and logging every compliance-critical change. Spirit Sight backs this with audited proof-gallon math and automated reconciliation checks, so the numbers you file are provable.

The reports a DSP owes

The storage (5110.11), production (5110.40), and processing (5110.28) operational reports and the semi-monthly excise return (5000.24) are generated from recorded activity, reconciling to each other and to physical inventory. Because they read from one source, a dump entered once appears correctly on every form it affects.

Excise, bond, and proof gallons

The excise return is computed from removals from bond with CBMA reduced-rate tiers applied cumulatively across the calendar year, and bond coverage is tracked against spirits in storage. Proof-gallon math is centralized to a fixed precision so removals, losses, and on-hand quantities always foot, and gauging follows TTB tables to the required precision.

Beyond TTB: the full compliance picture

Distillery compliance is more than federal reports. Spirit Sight also carries DTC and three-tier compliance with effective-dated state rules, lot traceability and recall, standards-of-identity and label checks, and, for UK and EU operations, the HMRC W-return and EU EMCS duty movements. One system covers the compliance obligations a modern spirits business actually faces.

An audit trail by default

Column-level change tracking across production, TTB, and financial tables records who changed what and when, so audits are a review of history rather than a scramble. The platform recently passed an independent app-wide accuracy verification, and its compliance figures are guarded by automated reconciliation checks that fail if any number drifts.
