“Z-Best is practically a turnkey EVMS System Description with a few sections that need to be updated to your companies’ internal processes. We should have licensed Z-Best from the beginning instead of developing our own, it would have saved us a year, a lot of money, and we would have had a compliant SD on the first try.”
