Danish physicist Niels Bohr once said, “Every great and deep difficulty bears in itself its own solution. It forces us to change our thinking in order to find it.” Bohr’s work was instrumental in the discovery of the electron, an elusive subatomic particle whose location, even now, we can only describe in terms of a field of probability.
In compliance management, the role of managing and tracking nonconformances is a critical step to ensuring that product defects are flagged and handled properly. Whenever there is a product that differs from plans and specifications, something must be done. Typically, it will be flagged as a nonconforming material.
Quality professionals know the value of automation. Minimizing errors that lead to defects, freeing up internal resources and optimizing collaboration can all have a significant impact on your bottom line and brand reputation. These are all key benefits of automated quality management software.
