Create the right chemical mix with Managed File Transfer

Need a way to ensure that your chemical formulae are protected, and covered fully by any NDA you’ve had your staff and colleagues agree to? Interested in a complete compliance, audit and support trail that will allow you to keep a paper trail to prove patents and more? Managed File Transfer is your answer.

The five areas MFT can help your chemical company

There are five broad areas where MFT can help you to create a secure network for your file distribution, with a higher security rating than FTP could ever achieve. These five key areas are designed to increase company productivity and provide a seamless integration with your current email systems.

Sharing formulae and other data with colleagues – imagine not needing to use internal mail to distribute information for meetings, formulae, testing or other projects. Imagine that you could, instead send information as simply as an email? MFT allows you to understand and share data even quicker than before. Choose the file and depending on one of a range of solutions that you choose, it could be as easy as adding the file by attachment to your email, hitting a button and letting the software take care of the rest.

Need to log hours in a lab weekly or monthly? Create the auditing file, and allow the system to take care of distribution, aging and deletion. It’s as simple as setting up a basic task in some cases.

Got compliance needs – MFT software provides a clear audit and logging file of everything that has been sent, accessed, deleted, altered, uploaded and downloaded. This creates a secure sharing environment that works with any confidentiality agreement that your team needs to adhere to, to develop your products. Compliance may go beyond NDAs though, where proving formulae and tracking materials can mean the difference between mediocre performance and a company at the cutting edge.

Putting your products into development – between sales and design is the development phase – and observe and compare everything that you want and need to keep track of. This creates unrivalled opportunities within any organisation – because data in many cases is power, and the power to observe data in real time is a real asset to companies looking to create a better working environment that fosters real growth.

Once development and testing is concluded, having a distribution backbone is a must, and MFT can help with that too, allowing you to use the same system to liaise with your distributers as your staff does. This cuts on both overheads and training time – giving your staff a streamlined, unified system to work on, whatever the division they are based on, and giving your managers real tools to create opportunities for the company.
