Businesses can create a simple, streamlined printing interface via a web browser and can be protected with a username and password. Each supplier can only access authorized labels allotted to them. With a consistent supplier labeling system, companies have a much inferior risk of mislabeling by suppliers and benefit from ultimate traceability with the capability to report all past label changes.
Operating directly with suppliers constructs a more interconnected supply chain and diversification of those suppliers is another way manufacturers avoid supply chain and inventory problems. An integrated network of suppliers enables the rapid addition of new suppliers without burdening the IT team with bottlenecks caused by disparate label management systems.
