Raleigh, NC – April 27, 2007 – Lyons Information Systems, Inc. announced a major upgrade to its successful Lyons Quality Audit Tracking System (LQATS) today.  The Global Performance Monitor (GPM) allows an apparel manufacturer to view worldwide real-time quality performance on a single screen. GPM may be viewed using any web browser with an internet connection.  As one customer describes, “It almost makes reports obsolete!”

The real-time, web-based system allows apparel manufacturers to view audit and inspection information prior to suppliers’ shipments, during the manufacturing process, and prior to shipment of finished goods.
