Specifications Management

The QADEX Specifications solution will simplify the whole process of gathering and managing raw material and packaging specifications.

 We remove the hassle, whether you’re gathering and managing specifications or searching raw material specifications. 

 

Key issues QADEX will address:

 

  • Current manual processes for collecting and managing raw material specifications are time consuming and prone to errors.
  • Specifications provided by many suppliers are incomplete.
  • Specifications are not searchable when incidents arise.
  • Access to current specifications and outstanding specifications status is difficult to co-ordinate.

 

What will QADEX Specifications do?

 

QADEX Specifications will provide you with your own access to a secure on-line system which is straight forward, intuitive and easy to use.

You will be able to view and manage all your suppliers, send specification requests to all or selected suppliers as well as having access to a comprehensive reporting suite. Within the reporting suite you will be able to see which suppliers specifications are outstanding, who has completed and how far each supplier is through their specification,

 

As a result:

 

  • You will save between 40% and 75% of the cost of managing raw material and packaging specifications using alternative systems.
  • The quality and consistency of specifications will be improved.
  •  Customer specifications will be easier to complete as a result of having all the raw material and packaging specification information to hand.

 

Brand Protection

 

Being able to respond rapidly to customers when incidents arise will help to protect your brand

 

Future Proof

 

Once collected, raw material specifications can be interfaced into QADEX Recipe Manager (Coming Soon) to create and manage finished product specifications in your own format or in retailer formats.

 

QADEX will manage all set-up

 

Once a decision to proceed has been made, QADEX will do all set-up, including

  • Loading all your suppliers onto the system
  • Loading your specification formats onto the system, in as many formats required.
  • Working with you to plan the roll out.

Once your account is live, we will deliver training to introduce your team to the system’s features and to agree any customisation required. You will then be provided with your own access to a secure on-line system which is straight forward, intuitive and easy to use. 

 

QADEX manage all aspects of ensuring supplier compliance

 

  • The QADEX support team will liase with your suppliers, on your behalf, informing them that a specification request will be arriving soon. After that, QADEX will provide on-going supplier support, helping them with any queries about the specification and the completion process.
  • We will also chase outstanding specifications - based on a pre-agreed timescale with you.
