This short demonstration provides a simple overview of the flow of materials through Zinc MAPS

In practice, Zinc MAPS enables a high degree of workflow flexibility based on specific client requirements: from pre-specified flows and teams where process compliance is important; to more pragmatic workflows for materials where a lower level of rigour is required.

There are two models of the Zinc MAPS workflow which can be used. The model typically used in US implementations is often called the Gatekeeper model, where the ‘Gatekeeper’ (often the MLR specialist, or equivalent) manages the review and approval processes. The model used in all of our ex-US implementations, is often called the Originator model; where the brand manager typically manages the review and approval processes.
