Can we keep supplier food-safety documents in the platform?+
Yes. Certificates, audit reports and expiry dates live on each supplier record, and the team is alerted before a document expires.
Does it replace our ingredient contracts?+
No. Strategic ingredient contracts stay where they are. Tail Sourcing covers the long tail around them: packaging, sanitation, lab, MRO and services.
Can multiple plants share suppliers and catalogs?+
Yes. Plants share approved suppliers and catalogs while keeping their own budgets and one human approval.
