Product teams are under pressure to produce. But bringing new products to market is incredibly complex — and that was before Covid-19 caused unexpected disruption and dramatically shifted markets. Now more than ever, product teams need to operate with agility that helps them respond to sudden, dramatic market shifts and bring the most profitable products to market quickly.

To achieve this level of efficiency, product leaders and teams need to reimagine the way they operate to move at a faster pace at every development step from ideation to launch, iteratively roadmap and prioritize the most viable products, and bring those products to market the moment they’re needed.

By adjusting a few things in the way your product teams operate, you’ll be able to streamline your product development processes to help the business meet demand and remain competitive and viable in rapidly evolving markets–all without adding budget, time, or resources.

Join us as we outline three steps to streamlining product innovations to help you:

• identify the right opportunities
• align product roadmaps with company strategy
• simplify budgets and planning timelines
• standardize product workflows and lifecycles
• and automate reviews and approvals

The COVID-19 pandemic is necessitating rapid shifts in many company auditing processes as a means to assure compliance with EHS regulatory requirements and continued maintenance of EHS management systems. Work environments have changed with many facility staff being transitioned to remote work or staggered schedules. Business activities may have shifted to those minimum operations permitted by state order, or those deemed critical for business sustainability. With limited access to the activities needing reviewed, site staff and compliance records auditing teams need to rethink how audits are planned and conducted. In these uncertain economic times, there is more than ever increased pressure to improve efficiency and maximize return on investment; all while meeting stakeholder expectations for the audit.

Many companies that have been using remote auditing strategies for years have already seen the value-add for their programs. By using technology, such as mobile tablets, live video streaming, and electronic cloud-based document sharing, organizations are optimizing for efficiency and providing lasting positive business impacts. With the right tools, your organization can conduct more effective audits in less time, while also improving peer-to-peer collaboration, reducing costs and continuing to meet compliance assurance expectations for your organization and stakeholder.

Join Gensuite LLC and Specialty Technical Consultants, Inc (STC) to discuss remote auditing best practices including:

• Key considerations & recommendations for implementing remote audit processes
• Leveraging technology as the solution for remote site interviews, walkthroughs, and evaluations
• Utilizing remote auditing techniques, such as live video streaming with remote experts, to improve site performance and drive corrective actions to closure

COVID-19 has not just caused a temporary interruption to our everyday lives, it has ushered in a new reality.  The basic principles of safety will not change, but the strategies and tactics must.  All change impacts safety, and leaders need to address these changes with strategic planning and proactive practices.  Poor safety performance is an indicator of inadequate strategic planning.

Organizations that remain committed to the pursuit of safety excellence have been proactively examining the best case, worst case, and most likely scenarios. They are working to outline actions under these three scenarios as they plan for the new normal and the reopening of the global economy. Learn how to remain committed to safety excellence during confusing times and how to maintain the focus on and in safety.  While there is always risk of doing the wrong thing, there is a greater danger in doing nothing. It is time to begin strategically planning for the new reality.

Are you ready to take control and secure your safety future?

Once President Trump announced the “Opening Up America Again” guidance on April 16, which provides discretion to state governors and local officials to make individual determinations about relaxing return-to-work and non-essential business closure orders, states immediately began to announce their plans for reopening businesses.

Over half (50 – 70%) of ERP projects fail. Despite the high costs incurred in failure, and the prominence of these projects, the success rate has not improved. Why?

Surveys and anecdotal reports consistently cite time, budgets, and lack of senior management involvement, but those are external factors to the direct implementation processes which should be followed and are normally the result of insufficient information prior to commencing with the project.

What elements of the project are under your immediate control and set the stage to eliminate these common failure reasons?

There are standard, widely accepted processes required for a software implementation project, including planning, documenting, training and testing. One critical task which is commonly not done or done poorly is a formal Business Process Review (BPR). Without  a solid BPR, project requirements are not formally defined nor prioritized, so the potential software features and design – which may not be related directly to your business goals — become the de facto requirements. Although the review may be done as part of the implementation project, ultimately the BPR should be performed prior to selecting software, so there is a basis and justification for the decision.

Join John Hoyt and Jane Scanlan, co-founders of the Next Level Manufacturing Consulting Group to learn about the key elements of a great BPR that, when done correctly, will contribute to a higher probability of success for your project. These elements include:

• Documenting standard business process functions and controls
• Interviewing key management and staff
• Reviewing existing system features and related procedures
• Gathering current forms and reports
• Developing process improvement recommendations
• Defining priorities
