Supplier Quality Insight Print E-mail
“Quality is paramount to our business along with adhering to the FDA’s Quality Systems Regulations (CFR21 part 820), which requires the tracking of external suppliers’ inventory. With SigmaQuest, we can more readily mitigate risk by identifying defective supplier components throughout the supply chain and ensure that their products perform to our specifications.” — Supplier Quality Engineering Manager, Stryker
