Independent audit confirms TraceLink's operational rigor and readiness to meet evolving customer and regulatory demands
BOSTON, July 23, 2025 /CNW/ -- TraceLink, the largest end-to-end digital network platform for intelligent supply chain orchestration, today announced the successful completion of its ISO 9001:2015 annual surveillance audit, expanding scope to include OPUS, the Orchestration Platform for Universal Solutions. The achievement reaffirms the company's commitment to delivering high-quality, reliable, and continuously-improving solutions and platform capabilities for organizations in highly regulated industries, including life sciences, healthcare, and pharmaceuticals.
The ISO 9001:2015 certification, awarded following an extensive third-party audit by an accredited certification body, validates that TraceLink's internal quality management system (QMS) meets the international standard's rigorous requirements. This includes formalized processes for quality control, customer satisfaction, risk management, and continuous improvement across the organization.
A Trusted SaaS Partner for Regulated Industries
As companies in regulated industries look to modernize their operations with reliable and secure SaaS solutions, ISO 9001 certification provides customers with an added layer of assurance. TraceLink's quality systems support scalability, governance, and operational risk mitigation, helping businesses meet their own compliance mandates, such as GxP, SOX, or ISO 27001 requirements.
"Expanding our ISO 9001 certification to include OPUS is a powerful affirmation of the reliability, repeatability, and quality-first processes that underpin TraceLink's platform," said Shabbir Dahod, President and CEO of TraceLink. "With more than 15 years of experience delivering solutions built to meet the rigor of GxP environments, customers can trust that everything from digital network integration to intelligent data and process orchestration is developed and supported under a robust, independently audited quality system. As OPUS evolves to meet increasingly complex supply chain needs—including agentic AI orchestration—it does so with the discipline and assurance of certified quality."
Innovation Backed by Structured Quality
TraceLink's certification reflects its process maturity in delivering no-code, cloud-based network digitalization capabilities via OPUS. Through robust internal audits, corrective action frameworks, and structured management reviews, TraceLink ensures that its platform innovation aligns with the highest standards of quality and reliability.
This expanded certification joins the portfolio of TraceLink's global security and compliance achievements, including ISO/IEC 27001:2022, ISO/IEC 27017:2015, SOC 2 / ISAE 3000 Type II, and a top-tier rating from CyberVadis. Together, these certifications demonstrate TraceLink's multi-dimensional leadership in safeguarding customer data, delivering dependable solutions, and meeting the compliance expectations of enterprise and public-sector buyers alike.

IBM Study: Sports Fans Demand More Dynamic Digital Content, Powered by AI

ARMONK, N.Y., Aug. 18, 2025 /CNW/ -- New global research commissioned by IBM (NYSE: IBM) reveals sports fans are turning to more dynamic digital content experiences, with AI, personalization and real-time features central to how they engage with sports. The study* of more than 20,000 sports fans across 12 countries shows they increasingly view technology – particularly AI -- as a positive force in sports. Total AI usage among fans has grown since 2024 across nearly all re-tested markets, ** with 85% of respondents seeing value in integrating the technology into their sports experience and 63% expressing trust in AI-generated sports content. Surveyed fans identify real-time game/match updates (35%) and personalized content (30%) as their top priorities for AI-enhanced sports engagement. Beyond live events, many respondents are turning to video highlights (51%), post-event recaps (37%) and player interviews (32%) to stay connected to their favorite sports. Dedicated mobile sports apps are also widely adopted -- 73% of surveyed fans confirm using them to stay updated. Social media is the leading platform for accessing additional content, and social media influencers play a prominent role, with 59% of surveyed followers engaging with them for analysis and predictions. Only 27% of surveyed fans expect their sports consumption habits to stay the same over the next two years. Eighty percent (80%) believe technology – specifically AI -- will have the greatest influence on how they follow sports by 2027. More than half (56%) of surveyed fans want AI-powered insights and commentary for past, current and future sporting events. Additionally, 33% of respondents believe real-time translation technology will have the most significant impact on their international sports experience in the next 2-3 years -- particularly in markets where English is not the dominant language. "The sports media landscape is more complex than ever, and fans are comfortable consuming digital content around the clock," said Kameryn Stanhouse, Vice President, Sports and Entertainment Partnerships, IBM. "With fans signaling their readiness to embrace AI, we will continue working with our tournament, league, and media partners to meet fans where they are, whether they're watching the action in person or enhancing their second-screen experience." Other key findings include: Sports engagement expands beyond the game with fast, non-stop content across screens Most (90%) fans surveyed consume sports content beyond watching events, with younger fans leading the trend. 40% of surveyed mobile sports app users rely on apps for centralized information and 35% for real-time updates when unable to watch games live. About 1 in 5 F1, golf, and tennis fans use apps tailored to their favorite sports. Mobile sports app usage jumps among in-person event attendees, with 82% of surveyed fans using apps during events. Of those, 91% engage with apps during live events, mostly for real-time commentary (44%), stats or analytics (41%) and enhanced in-stadium experiences (35%). Among fans surveyed in both 2024 and 2025, multi-device usage to follow sporting events increased from 27% to 29%, indicating a significant upward trend in second-screen behavior. 74% of respondents following sports influencers say storytelling is important to how they experience or connect with sports, especially among fans ages 18-44. Fans seek more connected, community-driven sports experiences 35% surveyed plan to watch more live content over the next two years, and 29% expect to attend more events in person. Fans surveyed agree that enhancements like faster recaps (67%), personalization capabilities (65%) and greater access to players and teams (65%) will improve their digital sports experience. Interest in community-driven experiences is rising: More fans rank community engagement as their first or second priority when consuming sports content, with the share of respondents ranking it as their top priority (1 st) rising from 9% in 2024 to 11% in 2025.** More respondents now identify community-building and fan interaction as important areas for AI-driven improvements in sports engagement (21% in 2025 vs. 20% in 2024).** To view the full study, visit: *Study Methodology This survey was conducted in June 2025 among a total sample of 20,864 sports fans 18+ in the US, Canada, the UK, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, India, the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Mexico and Brazil.
