Case Study: Under Armour standardizes quality across 270+ factories with TradeBeyond

What does it take for an Innovative Brand to move to an Innovative Quality Inspection Platform

Under Armour partnered with TradeBeyond to standardize quality inspections across a complex global supply chain. As the brand expanded across 200+ suppliers and 270+ factories, it struggled with manual inspection reporting, paper archives, poor data quality, limited searchability, and slow global reporting processes.

TradeBeyond implemented its quality inspection platform for Under Armour, training 193 factories in four countries in just three working weeks and achieving adoption within 24 hours. The solution delivered real-time, online inspection data, better defect correlation, faster corrective action plans, and improved transparency and process consistency; by January 2018, 100% of final inspections were being done in TradeBeyond, and today the platform is used by more than 2,200 users across 271 factories.
