CSM Software Updates

CSM software updates have been made by Craig Safety Technologies. Changes to our Compliance Safety Manager (CSM) software make it easier to navigate within the system, will correct system bugs, and will provide more detailed information to system users.

CSM software updates will be available on March 31, 2014.

Craig Safety Technology listens to its customers, and we will continue to do CSM software updates to provide exactly what you need to get the most out of CSM. We welcome your suggestions for additional changes, so don’t hesitate to call us when you identify issues or have ideas on how to improve the usability of the system.
