Social Compliance is a way for companies to help protect the health and safety of their supply chains, protect their employees, protect their brand but more importantly protect the community and environment in their operating world. Part of maintaining a robust social compliance program is to institute tools that drive accountability.
GTK Social Compliance is just that; a tool in the compliance framework that builds a sustainable program. We can help you create a compliance audit questionnaire, add vendors and partners, and distribute the audit solicitations. Your vendors can go online to respond. No response – no need to resend the email – the system automates this process with follow-up emails based on your requirements. Doing on-site audits – no problem – download the questionnaire in Excel – complete and upload or do it directly online.

“When we decided to take advantage by becoming an FTZ, we quickly got to software selection and compared GTKonnect FTZ against other leading providers. What we found in GTK was the willingness to work with our specific situation, the flexibility to accommodate our IT requirements and timelines for integration with our existing ERP and the excellent support to our team to help with a smooth go live, especially since we were completely new to this whole FTZ process. Their tool automates almost 100% leaving us just to intervene on an exception basis resulting in a smooth zone operation day in day out..”
