Streamline work processes to make more of limited time

• Reduce time and effort required to plan work
• Notifications and work flow processes streamline planning and approval process
• Sign off on measurement data template (including process tolerances) before can be put into use
• Increase efficiency in scheduling work
• Forecast labor requirements by individual or craft to help balance workloads and make staffing decisions easier
• Increase productivity in performing work
• All information required to do work in one place available in the field, including parts, tasks and links to documents such as appropriate SOPs
• Prompting for calibration set points means greater control and less time tracking down requirements
• Automatic flags in calibration data indicate out of tolerance conditions allow for immediate investigation and then automatic notifications when additional action is required
• Eliminate need to revisit records by requiring documentation before progressing to review state
• Expedite and simplify the review process
• Notifications sent immediately when work is ready to review, with link to information to review
• All information to review available in one place
• Map your business processes to ensure that required signatures are applied before progressing to the next state, eliminates back and forth and need for additional checks
• Automatically advance to next state when all signatures have been applied so noone needs to manage the flow of records
• Use a risk based approach and understanding of asset lifecycles to reduce work frequency

Reduce downtime and increase capacity

• More preventive maintenance during scheduled downtime, less reactive maintenance during scheduled uptime
• Reduce frequency of failures through better understanding of causes of failure
• Schedule maintenance, calibration and validation in sequence to reduce the number of interruptions to production
• Forecast labor and parts requirements to make better decisions and avoid delays due to backlog work and waiting for parts

Reduce capital expenditures for new assets

• Preventive maintenance reduces failure rate and extends life of assets versus Run-To-Failure approach
• Information on bad actors and total cost of ownership improves decision making on new asset purchases
• Evaluate cost to repair versus replace with real data

Reduce inventory costs

• Better forecasting of parts requirements reduces amount of parts and capital tied up in inventory

Reduce scrap and rework

• Fewer interruptions to batch caused by asset failure means less scrapped product
• Quality systems approach means better control of process and fewer out of tolerance events

Reduce risk of shutdowns and fines due to non-compliance

• Designed to facilitate compliance to CFRs for asset management
• Systems approach gives control over process to ensure what needs to get done and documented is done and provides easy answers to audit questions
• Electronic records don't get lost or misplaced like paper records could
• Single store of information means no questions about which record is the official and accurate record
• Functionality designed to facilitate compliance to 21 CFR Part 11 integral to application and therefore reliable and less burdensome
• System designed for validation and regularly validated, including validateable notification system
• Immediate notifications of non-conformances, deviations, observations and OOTs to appropriate parties, solid answer to regulatory requirements

Reduce asset service costs

• Warranty tracking to take advantage of covered service instead of paying out of pocket

Reduce IT costs

• Harmonize calibration, maintenance and validation systems so there is just one system to purchase and maintain instead of multiple systems
• Browser-based application simplifies implementation, validation and updates
• Bring additional functions into the software for additional payback, including engineering change control, exception management, IT assetmanagement and logbooks

Reduce administrative costs

• Engineers and metrologists enter results directly, paperlessly, eliminating need for data entry clerks
• Eliminate duplicate data entry and management of asset records in multiple databases
• Eliminate need for fire-proof filing cabinets, paper and filing folders and associated administrative costs
