Noteworthy quotes from this episode “They fill it out once and then it goes to everyone that they're connected with instead of having to go to 18 different portals and upload 18 different sets of documents and remember all those passwords. The power of the network makes the supplier’s life easier as well as the quality manager’s life easier.” – Sara Jane Bellocchi We hope you enjoy this episode!
