Engineering Change - Seradex ERP Module

Seradex ERP helps your engineering department control all ECN, ECO and ECR's. This software will make sure all changes to item master or bills of materials (BOM) are controlled and documented. It ensures engineering can manage all the parts, assembly and bill of material data, approval processes and change management while maintaining full audit trails.

Seradex provides engineers with instant access to current item information. It offers the freedom they need to create and include new items and bills of material.

This module automates the issuing and tracking of:

Engineering Change Notices (ECN)

Engineering Change Orders (ECO)

Engineering Change Requests (ECR)

It is more important than ever before to standardize your engineering change management process. Typically this process is time intensive, non-uniform and error prone. It can result in costly corrections in inventory, scrapped product and rework.

Often ECRs are accompanied by numerous documents that must be forwarded to all members of the approval board. Tracking who has what documents and the status requires numerous email or voicemails. This module makes the process electronic so you do not have to struggle with paper files.

The Engineering Change Notice Module creates, edits, and prints out ECN Reports. You will save time and money because your change process is streamlined and easy to use for you and everyone in your design chain. It will boost productivity of engineers as well as salespeople, production, inventory, and accounting staff members.
