Maintain Control and Full Visibility Over Your External Manufacturing Processes
Drive Efficiency, Agility, & Frictionless Collaboration in a Highly Regulated Environment
External Manufacturing Management Pain Points
External manufacturing management (EMM) requires overseeing and managing subcontractors, contract manufacturers organizations (CMOs), or off‑site production partners, and often involves complex coordination across multiple teams. Pairing that with TRIEVR’s GxP compliant request management platform can streamline operations, improve visibility, and reduce delays.

How Overlaying a Request Management System Between Your Company and EM/CMOs Work Together
When you overlay TRIEVR’s request management layer with your EMs and CMOs, you bridge internal and external teams seamlessly.
This combination helps ensure compliance, traceability, timeliness and streamlined workflows in highly regulated environments.
Essentially, it’s about maintaining control and visibility over a manufacturing process that is not conducted in-house and before now, have tended to be managed in email, word docs, phone calls, and spreadsheets.
TRIEVR’s Request Management Platform (also known as request management software or service request management software) is a SaaS based online centralized tool used to efficiently collect, prioritize, process, and track incoming requests internally and externally from EMs, employees, and other stakeholders.
TRIEVR helps create a structured environment between you and your EM/CMOs to streamline external manufacturing efforts.
