Optimize Shop Floor Integration
In partnership with QBuild Software, ECx Manager is a web-based tool that helps align engineering design changes with shop floor activities, allowing engineers to modify engineering change notices (ECNs) within their CAD software. This system structures ECNs in a clear, manageable format for easy access by engineers and managers. It facilitates a streamlined approval process, manages documentation effectively, and can be tailored to specific business needs, improving overall workflow coordination.
Benefits
Seamless Integration with Design Processes
ECx Manager allows engineering designers to create and modify engineering change notices (ECNs) directly within their preferred CAD software, ensuring that design changes are accurately reflected in what is being built on the shop floor. This direct integration helps maintain the integrity of design changes and reduces errors between design and production.
Enhanced Workflow and Approval Process Efficiency
The system provides a structured and visual workflow that simplifies the management and approval of ECNs. With features that allow users to define approval paths, manage user types, and automate notifications, ECx Manager streamlines the ECN approval process, making it more efficient and reducing the time from design change to implementation.
Customization and Visual Management
ECx Manager supports customization to fit specific business requirements, and its highly visual user interface helps both designers and engineering managers to easily access and manage ECNs. This adaptability and ease of use improve accessibility to critical information, enhancing decision-making and allowing for quicker adaptations to changes in the manufacturing process.
