CMX1 is designed to enable your team to more easily manage supplier compliance, product safety, store operations, and ultimately deliver the optimal customer experience - every single day, each and every interaction. 

Solutions made for you

From paddock to plate, quality and safety are paramount

If you’re in the food & beverage manufacturing industry, then you know all about pressure. There’s the pressure to source and deliver quality ingredients and products that adhere to increasingly strict regulations. The pressure to keep workers safe and maintain equipment. The pressure to maintain a quality network of trusted raw material suppliers and distributors. The pressure to respond lightning fast in the face of a product incident or recall. 

We get it — it's why we built CMX1 to take the pressure off and give you more control. In fact, it's the most comprehensive Enterprise Quality Management System (EQMS) solution on the market, enabling you to focus on becoming the most loved, most trusted manufacturer in your space.

Only the highest standards will do

To remain competitive in an increasingly tough manufacturing environment, you need to be leaner, more agile, and more resourceful than ever – while never compromising on quality, compliance, or safety. You need a Quality Management System that gives you the tools to better manage your suppliers, to identify and mitigate risk, that turns your policies and SOPs into repeatable operational programs. You need a platform that provides both flexibility AND control.

Enter CMX1 — proven by our clients to help you maintain the highest standards of quality, compliance, and safety that's expected of manufacturers today.

As an auditor or inspector, you have to get it right

Whether you have a couple of internal auditors or hundreds or you are a global TIC, CMX1 has the tools and experience to raise your game. We got our start in auditing and our first customer was a large professional auditing firm specializing in food safety and operational assessments. We speak your language.

With the CMX1 Platform powering your audits, tests, inspections, evaluations, and certifications you can have complete confidence that you are ticking off on whatever mandates, regulations, rules or standards that need to be ticked off on.

Drag and drop, visual designer? Online & offline? Any device? Pre and post workflows with a review? Automated Scheduling? Repeat detection? Complex scoring? Conditional questions? Built-in policies, procedures, media, instructions? Configurable "leave behind reports"? Automated CAPAs? Yep, we do all that and more.

Don't see your industry listed and feeling left out?

Well, go ahead and 'Insert your industry here' as our solutions are relevant to any regulated company that has supply chain partners, sources or sells products or services, or has a decentralized model for delivery.

If this is you and you are striving for Quality and Operational Excellence in all you do, let's talk. We love working with hungry, humble, and smart people that want to tackle new and hard problems.

CMX1 is designed to help you gain control, visibility, transparency and empower your team to act proactively in driving Quality and Operational Excellence throughout your supply chain and across all your locations.

If you’re already a global brand or just growing fast, it’s a real challenge to make sure that every customer interaction with your products or services is safe, consistent, and of high quality. CMX1 is designed to help you effectively communicate and execute on your brand standards, quality and compliance requirements, performance expectations, and standard operating procedures. It will enable your employees and partners to execute consistently at scale.

We cut our teeth working with some of the world's largest organizations. Multiple brands? Regional and country differences? Multiple languages? No problem with CMX1.

Staff leave and if they take their knowledge and experience with them, where does it leave you? CMX1 is designed to make all your quality and operational routines repeatable. Its easy-to-use intuitive user interface is geared towards infrequent and power users alike.  Alerts, notifications, task management, built-in policies and procedures, media, onscreen instructions and help, and step-by-step wizards are all employed by CMX1 to ensure even the newest partners and team members can get up to speed quickly and be productive.

Dated, rigid or siloed software can kill productivity and agility. They are also a pain to use. CMX1 was built from the ground up as a modern, cloud-based, mobile first platform and then a solution. This may sound like "mumbo jumbo" but what it really means is the solution can be molded to fit your processes and existing environment, and it's easy to use, anywhere. It is designed to be both comprehensive and modular allowing you to replace all your existing systems or just one at a time. CMX1 plays well with others.

Growth, Valuation, Risk Mitigation 

Ultimately, the vision for the business and the results come down to you. You are responsible for growth, profit, and your brand’s valuation. All of which can be severely impacted when you lack transparency in your supply chain, experience a product recall, or have operational issues in your locations. In order to make the best decisions and deliver on your objectives, you need a sense of what’s happening at every level of the business.

With the CMX1 Platform, you’ll have all the insights you need to steer the ship with confidence. Have complete trust in the quality of reporting, and rest easy knowing your team has the tools needed to manage your supply chain, products, and locations effectively as you scale the business. 

Supplier Performance, Product Quality, Crisis Management

It’s your job to ensure the partners you are doing business with meet the necessary regulatory requirements and your brand standards. Not just once when you initially onboard them, but continually. The origin, quality, safety, and consistency of the ingredients and products you source matter. They matter every single day. Eliminating risk isn’t a reality, but mitigating and containing it is critical.

It’s not an easy job, but with CMX1 you can achieve control and complete transparency across your entire supply chain. You will have the tools to know and manage every detail about your partners, ensure the ongoing delivery of quality products and services, and manage product incidents and recalls more effectively when issues arise. 

High-quality profitable products that scale with consistency

From concept to commercialization and every step along the way, the design, sourcing, and delivery of safe, high-quality products is complex, risky, and the price of failure can be high. Doing it at scale and doing it consistently is no small task. Actually... it's stressful.

CMX1 gives your team the process-driven tools for authoring, approving, and managing revisions and variations of all your finished and raw material product specifications, formulations, and ingredients. Workflow automation, supplier onboarding, and communication and collaboration features help automate the commercialization process from beginning to end.

Consistently great customer experience, no matter the location

Whether you have restaurants, hotels, or stores across a state, a country - or all over the globe – it’s your job to ensure that customers enjoy the same quality experience, no matter which location they visit. Every. Single. Time. To do this, you need exacting procedures and comprehensive systems in place to manage operational routines, consistency, and control quality.

Ditch all the binders and clipboards and use CMX1 to digitize all your operational routines. Arm your internal auditors and field management team with the tools they need to properly coach and consistently assess your locations. Empower your employees with the information they need to execute well on the things that matter most in your locations. With CMX1 you’ll have all the information you need in real-time to continually improve your operations, delight your customers, and boost the bottom line. 

Product Safety is non-negotiable

Whether you sit within Supply Chain or Operations or oversee Food Safety across the board, the safety of your products is non-negotiable.

Product safety starts with the design and sourcing of products and continues all the way to the point where your customers consume them. The packaging, transportation, storage, delivery, handling, and preparation that happens in between is full of risk. It's your job to identify and mitigate those risks and make sure issues are addressed as they arise.

Make the job infinitely easier with CMX1. Every single module within the platform is designed to help you create safer products for your customers. Have the confidence that your partners and locations are complying with food safety laws and regulations, meeting your brand expectations, and addressing issues in order to build and maintain trust with your customers.
