Document revisions is very simple. Usually we trigger it through a change request.



00:04 - 00:18
So again, all of those conversation types that are required to be changed, we link to the change request and then we have an individual who's responsible for implementing it. So again, they know exactly just clicking on which items they need to update and just revise it.



00:18 - 00:28
There's a quick revision feature and then you mark it as current and again, the change request is already tied to it. So all the information as to why it was updated and the approval for that update is already tied to it.



00:28 - 00:34
And as soon as you click the request for approval and the individual approves it, it marks it as current.



00:34 - 00:38
And unless you have the necessary rights, no one else will ever see the other revisions.



00:38 - 00:43
So you're only able to look at what's most current in the system. So there is no confusion.

But what we've known from what I experience was, is we were able to get there with the system. We still there with the system. The system has what is needed to provide us what we're looking for, because every company, admittedly, is trying to get compliant. If we educate people, if we get people the education that they need and to get over the fear factor, I think 90% of those things can be resolved because most people will go to what they're most familiar with.What I worked with from a different company, but they're not willing to sit down and look at what the demographics are saying. People are into social media now. People are moving fast into fast paced world. But technologies are still antiquated. So there's a disconnect here, right? So while we're moving at a fast pace at home with dragging at work, so why can't we continue that speed while we at work?If your supplier has issues and you're not informed on time, you want to have an alternate supplier in place. If your suppliers are not qualified, you may not know that that needs to happen. And so when you have an integrated system that speaks to itself and is giving you all this data, you literally have the pulse of the organization in your hands as an executive at a money bound access.
