| APQP/FMEA/Control Plans Management Software |
The various divisions of an organization often have difficulties communicating with each other. The walls that separate engineering, manufacturing, quality, field services, and customer service groups can be difficult to penetrate. Breaking down the walls and initiating proactive and reactive communication is not only a difficult task, but in most cases, sustaining the dialogue is nearly impossible. Pilgrim Software’s Advanced Quality Planning (AQP) application destroys the substantial barriers between divisions. The application focuses on improving new product introduction periods and accommodating design and process changes through the integration of a company’s groups.
Pilgrim assures that design or process changes initiated in engineering, manufacturing, or established through a CAPA analysis will be accurately and systematically applied to manufacturing with this application.
