It's really important to build a team that has one foot in the industry and one foot in technology. It's really hard to build vertical software for an industry if you are just a bunch of pure technologists sitting in your ivory tower saying, hey, why doesn't the industry work this way? Conversely, it's hard to build a technology company by just being a pure insider of the industry without understanding or knowing how technology can change and influence workflows. My goal was always to build a group of folks that were technologists who understood supply chain and supply chain professionals who understood technology. My name is Prince Skosh. I am the founder and CEO of Factored Quality.
This is CodeStory. A podcast bringing you interviews with tech visionaries who share what it takes to change an industry, who built the teams that have their back, keeping scalability top of mind. All that infrastructure was a pain. Yes, we've been fighting it as a group. Total waste of time. The stories you don't read in the headlines. It's not an easy thing to achieve, Mike. Took it off the shelf and dusted it off and tried it again. To ride the ups and downs of the startup life.
You need to really want it.

Prince Ghosh was born in Bangalore, India, and moved around a lot during his life, to the US, then to Europe, then back to the US, but he spent his formative years in Princeton, New Jersey. He majored in mechanical and aerospace engineering as he wanted to build planes and engines. Eventually, he fell out of love with building planes and became obsessed with supply chain tech. Outside of technology, he's a tennis player, occasionally playing basketball, and is an avid reader. He's enthusiastic about tech, the economy, and of course, the supply chain. Prior to his current venture, Prince started Workbench while his co-founders created an agency, which was more like an operations company in a box.
When they started working together, they realized there was a large opportunity to combine forces and simplify quality control. This is the creation story of Factored Quality.
Factored Quality is a digital platform for consumer goods brands to run quality control and compliance across their global supply chains. So we build both software and help brands run quality control services across their global manufacturing. On the software side, we look like what's called a quality management system, a QMS platform. So this is a software that helps brands manage all of their quality compliance and operations related processes and documents. And then on the services side, we actually help brands run what's called quality control across their global supply chains. We do this via a network of thousands of third party quality control inspectors. So these are people who are actually going down to factories all across the world to audit those factories to inspect the goods as they're being made or to test the products. as they're being developed. So our kind of mission and vision is to help consumer goods brands of all shapes and sizes manufacture high quality compliant products from trusted manufacturers across the world.
