PROBLEM
Umpqua Dairy is the largest family owned dairy in Southern Oregon providing fresh ice cream, milk and other dairy products. Umpqua was manually collecting and storing documents from its vendors. Staying up to date took hours of time and with multiple priorities, documents expired and sometimes were not replaced until just before an audit. As a result, Umpqua was interested in learning how it could reduce its risk and automate this process.
SOLUTION
