RizePoint, the longest-lasting quality management vendor in the marketplace, has updated their Ignite™ Supplier Certification Management solution, adding new features to make the platform even more valuable. Ignite allows companies to gather, organize, and manage supplier documentation and information in a centralized location, track status and deadlines, ensure compliance, and reduce time-consuming administrative tasks. Ignite leverages the latest tech stacks in cloud computing to deliver better speed of service, security, and performance, with shortened development cycles.
Now, RizePoint is “Ignite-ing” the newest feature, Programs, which allows users to group sets of tasks quickly and easily into a single program. Suppliers receive an email and simply click the secure link, complete the tasks, and they’re done.
“Ignite Supplier Certification is a smart, affordable solution to keep supplier documentation up-to-date, track status, reduce risk, and ensure compliance. We’ve added new features, based on user feedback, to make it faster and easier for our clients to manage their supplier partnerships,” said RizePoint President Kari Hensien. “We’re disrupting traditional market software so small-to-mid-sized organizations can use our solution to stay compliant and competitive.”
“I feel that organizations that don’t allow enough time and resources to build and manage a meaningful supplier program puts organizations at a huge risk,” said Kari Neubauer, lead program manager at Ceres Certification International. “You’re not able to identify inefficient, unreliable suppliers and, in the end, that becomes costly in terms of revenue, time, and your organization’s reputation.”
“This is the time to get on board and do it because the FDA is knocking on the door. And it’s just good, ethical management anyway, whether the FDA is out there or not,” Neubauer added. “You need to know where your food is coming from and if it’s in good shape.”
