PDXpert PLM Software
Product Lifecycle Management
Save valuable time & reduce errors with professional engineering change control
Change forms often reference wrong part numbers, attachments are lost, the entire package can be misrouted or sit on a vacationing engineer's desk... the process is expensive and inefficient.
The ECN module and approval work flow is straight-forward. I highly recommend this system.
Then there are the productivity-stealing variations: a deviation or waiver process that provides insufficient detail or inadequate review; engineering change proposals that are never acted upon, and therefore represent wasted effort; change orders that don't follow your company's documented process.
PDXpert PLM offers a host of features that simplify your engineering change process:
- Create an unlimited number of different change forms, such as Change Request, Change Order, Deviation, Waiver, Stop Ship.
- Specify whether each form releases and/or cancels items (ECO/ECN/ECP), or provides information about an item (such as a change request or stop ship)
- Design custom review workflow for each change form
- Easy drag-and-drop of the affected parts and documents onto the change
- Disposition each released or canceled item including: physical part counts; one-time rework, NRE and tooling expenses; and recurring costs
- Attach electronic files, such as rework instructions and cost impact assessments; include URLs pointing to vendor web pages
- Increase revenue by slashing design time and accelerating release and change cycles
- Lower product costs by encouraging more collaborative design, reducing production errors and rework, and minimizing excess and obsolete inventory
- Reduce administrative overhead by simplifying regulatory and contractual compliance, and by reducing process administrative and clerical costs
