New Program Compliance Feature for Steton 360 Enterprise Edition Is Released

ST. GEORGE, Utah, Jan. 25, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Steton Technology Group today released a new Program Compliance feature for its Steton Enterprise Edition solution. The new feature gives companies a significant tool for determining how well their supplier partners are meeting established standards in areas like social responsibility, quality, safety, supplier management and brand delivery.

To protect brand identity, most companies require their business partners to comply with specific standards for risk, safety, quality, service and more. A company's quality assurance program, for example, may require suppliers to provide critical process documentation, with results from product testing and operations audits. When a company works with hundreds or even thousands of suppliers, however, it becomes difficult to organize all the documentation and identify where potential problems exist. "Companies are investing enormous resources trying to ensure compliance with their standards, but many managers feel as if they're still flying blind," said Dennis Derrick, Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing at Steton. "When they're forced to rely on infrequent audits or out-of-date information, they simply can't know what they need to know."

The new Program Compliance feature addresses these problems by letting organizations define key tasks, deliverables and due dates associated with critical programs, and then publishes these requirements to business partners. As tasks and deliverables become due or as program requirements change, partners are automatically notified. As partners complete tasks and provide the required documentation, the system tracks the actions and provides the client company with organized, detailed access to the information. The client company can easily and quickly locate a piece of compliance documentation, and see, in near real-time, information ranging from whether or not a partner has completed a specific task to how well a program and all of its requirements have been adopted by all business partners. As a result, compliance costs are significantly reduced and organizations become more effective with their continuous improvement initiatives.

Steton 360 Enterprise Edition is a unique Performance Management solution designed for use in retail industries and is offered as an affordable software-as-a-service solution. Program Compliance is provided as a no-cost upgrade because it is included in the software subscription.
