Hi, World. It’s me again - Robbie, your ever-excited FoodLogiQ Customer Success Manager. In my last blog post, I talked about what a successful business partnership looks like. And today, I want to chat a bit about something that’s not altogether unrelated: teamwork!
Why teamwork? The answer is simple. The ability to align on a common, measurable goal and work together to achieve that goal is, in my opinion, the glue that holds business partnerships together. You see, in the world of software, there are several moving parts that need to align to make sure that a customer journey is successful, and if different players aren’t working together, then things can fall apart, and fast.

And while we here at FoodLogiQ truly value all of our business partnerships, today I want to focus on one in particular. It was launched in April 2017, when Five Guys began collaborating with FoodLogiQ to gain greater insight into their supply chain, centralize their supplier management, and utilize quality issue tracking and reporting to accomplish their business goals.

Agricultural losses are estimated at $1 billion dollars. For anyone in the food industry, it's a not-so-gentle reminder of the often powerful impact of supply chain disruptions.
