ACD Implements Document Management and Change Management from Omnify Software
ACD, a leading supplier to the electronics industry, announces that it has successfully implemented the Document Management and Change Management solutions from Omnify Software.
Product documents such as design files, manufacturing files, and supplier files are critical components in managing the complete product record. Omnify Empower PLM provides a complete document management system including vaulting/revision control with check-in/check-out features, document associations to any Omnify object, multi-site, synchronized vault locations, and more. Additionally, managing the change process within Omnify's Change/ECO Management module will help ACD to develop a simplified engineering change process with automated workflows, signoff alerts and full audit trails.
"As an ISO 13485 and AS9100 EMS company, good revision control is an absolute. With the purchase of the Omnify Document Management and Change Management software, we have gone from good to best. The attitude of constant improvement is the reason ACD has become a leading manufacturer of military and medical electronics," commented W. Scott Fillebrown, President & CEO of ACD.
"Traditionally, we see contract manufacturers using PLM technology only when their customers require it," stated Jack Rowntree, COO of Omnify Software. "Using PLM within their organization to create a more efficient way of communicating with their customers demonstrates ACD's forward thinking culture and commitment to continuous improvement."
The Omnify Document Management System will provide ACD with controlled editing and viewing of documents, complete revision control of all documents, and centralized storage of product data and documents. The implementation of Omnify's Change/ECO Management will eliminate manual change creation and reduce ACD's cycle times.
