Now that you have a single view of how your locations are performing in a couple of areas, or all your suppliers and partners are in a single place – you can start to address other aspects of your quality, risk, and compliance efforts.
Perhaps it makes sense to start auditing your suppliers or automating policy updates across your locations. Maybe handling product-related incidents, withdrawals and recalls more effectively.
Whatever the next step is, the CMX1 Platform can support your plans and ensure everything is seamlessly connected.
"Sonic Drive-In is a great example of a customer who started with just a small part of CMX1, and has continued to add more modules over time. Once they had all their supplier, distributor, products, and location information and relationships in the platform, adding Incident and Recall Management was a natural extension."
