Smart processes are redefining on-site inspections

[...]even more interesting from a client company perspective is the potential for analyzing remote manufacturing operations and their impact on the efficiency of global supply chains. [...]there is no guarantee that an on-site inspector working independently will sample products correctly or pay attention to problem areas that the client company has flagged. [...]service providers and their customers need this type of information if they are to improve inspection practices and align them with the needs of different clients- which vary widely. Complimentary services such as the Cloudbased global supply chain management service offered by GT Nexus could greatly enhance this new generation of inspection services. [...]these services will become fully integrated into global supply chain management systems, and function as a key source of information on the efficiency of factory operations.
