How Does a Manufacturer Ensure Regulatory Compliance?

The Challenge

Across a diverse array of processes, regulatory concerns, and efficiency and environmental goals, how does a manufacturer decide what to do first?

EXPONENT's Multidisciplinary Solution

Ģ��tv's Environmental & Earth Sciences engineers and scientists conducted a multidisciplinary evaluation of all water treatment processes — from raw water sources to finished bottled products — and optimized them to improve quality and reduce costs.

Our experts helped the beverage manufacturer optimize products and prioritize resources, including grouping its recommendations into critical, semi-critical, and non-critical priorities. We identified as critical any operations or practices that directly impacted product quality and final product manufacturing, and those likely to result in legal or regulatory actions. We also oversaw management and execution of critical and semi-critical priorities.
Our IT specialists provided diverse support, including:
- Performed manufacturing system controls optimization
- Developed improved record-keeping practices
- Conducted information technology audits to prevent unauthorized system access and enhance cybersecurity
