Compliance software for South African manufacturers

Manufacturers answer to safety inspectors, environmental regulators, certification auditors and customers, often in the same month. XGRC® brings safety, quality, environmental and supplier compliance onto one platform, so every site works from the same records and every audit draws on the same evidence.

Frequently asked

Common questions.

01What compliance software do manufacturers need?

Most manufacturers need to manage health and safety under the OHS Act, quality to ISO 9001, environmental obligations under NEMA and supplier compliance. A single platform avoids running separate systems for each, so incidents, non-conformances, audits and actions share one set of records.

02Can XGRC® run ISO 9001, 14001 and 45001 together?

Yes. MSX® runs them as one integrated management system, following the approach described in PAS 99, with shared document control, internal audits, corrective actions and management review.
