When we think about Unifize, one of the central value propositions for Unifize is the ability to pair the discussion around the quality of your product, the processes involved in creating a quality product with the actual process itself, wherever it's being documented.

00:15 - 00:34
In our case Unifize has been, we've enabled integrate Unifize a lot earlier on in the process now than we originally anticipated because, you know, it's easy to think, okay, once your R&D proceeds to a certain stage, then you start thinking about creating the quality control specifications.

00:34 - 00:42
What are the specific manufacturing and laboratory processes in place required to consistently make a quality product?

00:42 - 01:00
But even just that initial discussion of what are the raw material components that make the most sense, what information from other departments can we loop in to make sure that everyone on the R&D understands what the consumer preferences are or the big trends that need to be acknowledged as part of the R&D part.

01:00 - 01:03
What are the regulatory and compliance issues do we need to be aware of.

01:03 - 01:16
As early on in the process as you can, that you can involve the entire discussion, the better chance of a product being on the back end, being a high quality product that people will actually want to buy and Unifize really helps us out with that.

01:16 - 01:36
Just being a central repository for all these discussions in line with a checklist of all the necessary stages, all the necessary documents, all the necessary tasks required for launching a new product makes it a lot easier to keep everyone together and talking. And this has also reduced the amount of time spent on meetings.

01:36 - 01:49
People, I'm well aware, loved having meetings all day. So the ability to be able to reduce that has been a massive benefit to us. In the past, whether it's a new product development or when it's troubleshooting a quality issue.

01:49 - 01:56
One a quality person would have to talk to a product leader. They would have a meeting, then they need to loop in the product manager.

01:56 - 02:13
They move, they have another meeting with the product manager. They realize they need to escalate it more. Now you every meeting, subsequent meeting is reiterating the same information all the way up to the managing director. And that point you spent how many hours talking about the exact same thing and there's no resolution in sight.

02:13 - 02:26
So being able to eliminate 90% of that discussion and go straight to having all that information in a single place with the ability to enter all the information into the process on Unifize so that everyone can see it at the exact same time.

02:26 - 02:32
That level of transparency has been invaluable to us. It's a very much a quality of life improvement.
