Last week I have been updating the compliance assistance
program (eCAP®) website for our clients. The
website maintains the client’s documents for each module they have

the newer documents. This way our clients have easy access to their
compliance documents without having to mess with organizing them on
their own.

project manager as she went through the routine inspection. This
was a great opportunity for me to...
