Attendees will leave this training program with more confidence, vision, and productivity. The confidence comes from knowing that you have more tools to keep your product in compliance with regulatory and company standards. The ability to establish the necessary processes will allow attendees to remain confident that your company will be safe.
The key points to be covered for these three critical issues include:
Supplier Inspections: Will cover both domestically produced and imported products. Though imported products (especially from Asia) typically pose more risk and potential for compliance issues, domestically produced products are by no means risk-free. This topic will be explored in depth with a process recommended to address prior to and after the start of production.
Audits: Especially internal audits will be discussed in light of the processes and systems that need to be established, maintained, and analyzed continually to insure that the company is remains in compliance with current regulations. The most daunting event for a company CEO is to see his company in the headlines for a compliance issue because the internal processes are based on outdated regulations.
Compliance Tracking: Post-qualification and post-startup, how does a company continue to analyze and track their suppliers’ compliance to specifications? It is easy to measure the physical characteristics of a product, but how about the non-measurable areas such as social and quality systems compliance? This session will analyze how to keep the product and support systems in compliance.
Why Should You Attend:
The webinar is an overview of three of the most critical issues that a compliance group in a company can encounter. Without an effective process to address each of these three critical factors, a company can be highly vulnerable to organizations, suppliers, and factories that strive to minimize cost while maximizing risk to their customers.The key points to be covered for these three critical issues include:
