One compliance crisis and three years later…

While helping companies create compliance programs for both regulatory compliance and major retailer requirements, I kept seeing the same problem.

Everyone had the people. Some had had the procedures. But no one had the right technology to tie it all together and digitize their compliance data.

Smart companies with solid compliance programs were stuck using Dropbox or Google folders, spreadsheets and shared drives. They had no way to share or tag their test reports for quick retrieval. They couldn’t track who changed what document when. Multiple team members needed access, but there was no audit trail. It was like building a house with top-tier materials but no blueprint.

When COVID hit, the cracks became canyons.

Teams couldn’t access their compliance data without a VPN. Critical documents sat on office computers while everyone worked from home. Companies had a hard time showing proof of compliance with less interaction with their suppliers.

That’s when I decided to build Comply PRO+.

My clients didn’t need another consultant telling them what to do. They had elements of a compliance program, but no digital framework that would hold all the data necessary for a robust program.

The plus sign in Comply PRO+ represents the framework needed to manage the digital data required to support evolving retailer and state requirements, as well as upcoming regulatory requirements such as CPSC eFiling, Digital Product Passports, and Extended Producer Responsibility reporting.

It’s the technology piece that’s been missing from the compliance equation. With all the talk about AI, the first step toward achieving this goal is to have centralized, secure digital data to gain insights and identify trends. Comply PRO+ sets you up for that future by automating data into actionable workflows to streamline your business.

Companies that are serious about compliance and brand protection can now quickly and easily implement frictionless compliance for multi-channel sales and CPSC eFiling, allowing them to focus on growing their business.
