The company had an issue with documents stored in various places and no version control in place. The shopfloor was disconnected and they relied on humans to distribute and remove the correct version of the hardcopy to the right people. Change Management is another area that is cumbersome, error-prone and still paper-based.
Implemented PLM for the entire enterprise, which includes integrated Change Management, Manufacturing Planning and various linked versions of the Bill of Material (BoM) like Engineering and Manufacturing BoM. Industry and Best Practice proven processes have been implemented and bespoke training is provided to every user based on role and job description.
The company gained transparency throughout the Product Development Process. A huge win was the use of the specific Windchill Medical Device package to conform with the ISO and FDA processes. Our digital viewing functionality helped to reduce paper prints and the workers now have access to accurate information in the right format at the right time. Users can focus on their job instead of searching for information and doubling up on work due to a lack of transparency.
