CHICAGO — August 9, 2018 — Epazz, Inc. (OTC: EPAZ), a leading provider of blockchain cryptocurrency mobile apps and cloud-based business software solutions, has announced the launch of its newest version of EQM, version 4, a new robust enterprise quality management system, food inspection software, and audit software to assist governments and businesses in compliance management.

The company already has government and business customers using EQM. We believe the new features and new graphic user interface will attract new customers to EQM. The company is working to transition EQM to a serverless application.

We believe our solution can attract governments like Dubai’s, who are currently using blockchain technology to enhance food safety, according to an IBM article. “The Dubai conference’s theme of ‘Predict, Prevent, Protect’ hints at the Municipality’s larger goals to predict foodborne issues, prevent illnesses and protect consumers proactively through blockchain and big data. The stated goal is for the system to be in place before Dubai hosts the World Expo in 2020. Since it is one of the first large-scale projects of this nature, I’m looking forward to seeing how it all comes together. Dubai’s successes and pitfalls will help to provide a blueprint for other blockchain implementations around food safety.”

EQM has similar features to the food monitoring system being implemented in Dubai. The company will integrate its blockchain technology with EQM, and the company will integrate its patent-pending Blockchain storage technology. The company’s marketing will use social media, such as Google AdWords, Bing, LinkedIn, Facebook and Twitter.

EQM version 4.0, compliance management software starts at $399 per month.

Epazz CEO, Shaun Passley, Ph.D., said, “We have been able to launch new products and new versions of products that will be using blockchain technology in the enterprise and government. EQM, version 4.0, is the newest version. We are rolling out an aggregate marketing program to tap new government and enterprise customers. Compliance, audit and inspection management help to assure quality and reliability.”

ENTERPRISE QUALITY MANAGER version 4.0

Enterprise Quality Manager (EQ/M) is a web-based, multi-lingual compliance and inspection management solution.  The system requires the input of the program or standard (compliance rules).
