ENTERPRISE-WIDE QUALITY AND INTEGRATED MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

EwQIMS^®, or "Enterprise-wide Quality and Integrated Management System" is a revolutionary integrated management system software suite. It is a 100% Web-based suite in which you can run all your business quality operations. It comprises an integrated set of web-based software tools that encompass all aspects of quality management. This suite includes modules for New Product Launch and Risk Management (APQP/FMEA), document management, internal and supplier audits, company performance/customer requirement management, equipment verification and calibration (MSA), management and tracking of employee objectives (HR), business process implementation, and equipment maintenance management and scheduling (TPM); all tied together and all sharing a single repository to allow consistent, reliable, and accessible data. Duplicate data entry is a waste of business time. Following the lean approach to quality, EwQIMS^® is able to reduce waste by module integration and allowing the import of data from outside data sources. EwQIMS^® can handle global and individual needs of company locations or multiple divisions online. By using the capabilities of SQL server, EwQIMS^® is able to offer levels, groups and individual permissions. Plus the flexibility of the software itself allows you to create many kinds of tasks, great and small.

PROBLEM SOLVER SOFTWARE

Problem Solver is designed to be a single repository of all customer and internal problems issued by the organization. It has been designed with Integrated Management Systems in mind and can handle a variety of Quality (external and internal), Environmental, and Health and Safety issues. Effectively tracking issues/incidents and knowledge management are part of an organization’s continuous improvement strategy.

MANAGE YOUR PROBLEMS & INCIDENTS

Problem and incident investigation is performed within Problem Solver^®. Depending on the type and nature of the problem, Problem Solver^® routes the problem to internal Champions. Many problems are easily resolved in the first step and the issues can be quickly closed out. Those issues that require further problem-solving techniques are then assigned by the Champion to a Team Leader and team for resolution.

STANDARDIZE METRICS AND REPORTING

Problems and incidents can be categorized, and the organizational metrics necessary to resolve the issues can be specified. In the event the problems are not completed by the assigned due date, Problem Solver^® will automatically escalate the issue. A consistent corporate-wide approach for reporting all Environmental, Quality, and Health & Safety nonconformities can also be established.
