Industry Certifications and Standards are often the key to selling to large OEMs and in specific industries. Under key industry standards, processes are managed as a system by creating and understanding the network of processes and how they interact.
When embraced as an opportunity rather than a hurdle, industry certifications can be the catalyst that creates meaningful value for manufacturers.
