OUR CLIENT
CR Formulations is a medium-sized, full-service contract cosmetics manufacturer based in Sydney, Australia. They create world-class personal care products made to international standards for domestic and global markets. The company was founded in 2010 by renowned formulator, Cheryl Ross.
CHALLENGE
Formalizing processes and compliance tools
to scale
CR Formulation’s rapid growth required them to switch quickly from a manual system to a professional software platform so they could achieve ISO 22716 certification and scale effectively.
According to Operations Manager Tim Burt, the company struggled with version control, traceability, documentation, and managing raw materials, using an ad hoc Excel-based system to keep track of everything. Inventory control was also very time-consuming and cumbersome.
Without tightening up a lot of their processes, controls, and compliance tools, CR Formulations wouldn’t qualify for GMP certification.
Burt was seeking a cloud-based platform that would help with:
- Establishing ISO 22716 compliant systems and processes
- Gaining a competitive advantage that would help the company increase sales
- Poor performance and slow support response times

SOLUTION

solution for certification,

Because the Cosmetri® team was based in the US and Europe, Burt knew there could be a potential delay between submitting supporting tickets and receiving answers to his questions. But from setup onwards, he was impressed by Cosmetri’s 24-hour response time despite the large time difference.
