Facility Compliance

Issues and Challenges

As companies expand their global presence, production facility workplace conditions, child labor practices, production processes and banned materials (chemical components, conflict minerals, etc.) usage is increasingly scrutinized. Governmental regulations are ever increasing, placing additional burdens on companies to monitor, document and remediate any violations. With countries and states enacting laws that apply to social responsibility and environmental impacts from production, businesses are feeling the impact of fully meeting these regulatory requirements.

For this reason, it is important global organizations are 100% transparent about the way they do business throughout every stage of the supply chain and fully evaluate production facilities. Traceability and collaboration tools are necessary to provide factual information about raw materials and all production processes. While factory audits and evaluations are conducted by internal or 3rd party groups, companies must collect and consolidate the data regarding initial and on-going status of all facility compliance indicators.
