TransparentCMS™ Introduced at BSR Conference 2007
Oct. 23, 2007
San Ramon, Calif. — Oviya Systems LLC has introduced their TransparentCMS Compliance Management System for the supply chain at the Business for Social Responsibility (BSR, www.bsr.org) Conference, “Designing a Sustainable Future,” Oct. 23-27, at the Hyatt Regency in San Francisco.
TransparentCMS automates the process of managing Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) compliance and Customs-Trade Partnership Against Terrorism (C-TPAT) security compliance in the global retail/manufacturing supply chain. The modular system offers five key components: Vendor Compliance Agreements, Vendor/Factory Profile Management, Vendor Self-Assessment Management and Factory Compliance Audit Management.
The system allows agents, vendors and factories to register and manage their profiles, then electronically sign agreements that document accountability for CSR compliance, product quality and C-TPAT certification. Audit results are recorded to track supplier performance over time.
“Oviya Systems automates the process of monitoring your sourcing partners’ commitment to social responsibility and managing the associated assessments and audits,” says Kumaran Perumal, founder. “We make CSR compliance transparent, so you know the people you’re doing business with share your commitment.”
TransparentCMS gives retailers instant visibility into supply chain compliance. The rules-based system indicates which suppliers have up-to-date, verified documentation and assigns a risk factor to those suppliers who are non-compliant. By enabling self-assessment and independent verification, the system also promotes collaboration among supply chain partners.
“We believe that unless accountability is pushed all the way down the supply chain, the benefits of compliance cannot be realized,” Perumal says. “People are accountable because they are partners in the collaboration process.”
TransparentCMS is delivered via the Software as a Service (SaaS) model, TransparentCMS can by customized to meet the unique needs of each client. For more information, contact Oviya Systems at 1-877-466-8492 or email contactus@oviyasystems.com
