How does the world's leading supplier of flame resistant, high performance apparel to the military, law enforcement, search and rescue professionals, and wildland firefighting community ensure they are delivering the very best product to the world's most dangerous occupations? The textbook answer is this - they employ a strong management team, focus on sourcing the very best materials, manage a strong network of supply chain partners, pay close attention to compliance issues, and deliver on their commitment to produce the best gear possible.
But behind all the leading edge products, Massif focuses on two important aspects - technology and innovation. And, to fortify this focus, we're proud to announce that Massif has selected TEXbase as their Materials Lifecycle Management (MLM) partner.
“Material innovation, compliance, product performance, and quality control are integral to Massif’s commitment to our customers. TEXbase provides the opportunity to progressively manage this commitment – and allows us to stay ahead of the innovation curve” says Jeff Bowman, Chief Operating Officer at Massif.
Working with Massif has been a great experience. Any time you have two like-minded organizations (both focused on success and consensus amongst people, process and technology), you're going to have the makings for a winning partnership. After conducting initial meetings that identified workflow best practices and existing ERP system integration, we built an implementation plan that includes TEXbase modules that help Massif manage Materials, Color and Quality. Upon installation within these business groups, we'll move forward with adding the Connect Platform - giving Massif real-time access to their development and production data (including a direct connection with their independent testing lab).
At the end of the day, we're happy to help drive efficiency, reduce errors, and increase profit margins at Massif while providing a missing tool that strengthens this industry leader - from concept to compliance.
