Think Twice before Writing
Your Own QMS Software

Thursday, October 6
, 2011
2:00 PM to 3:00 PM EDT

You know that quality management system (QMS) software will save your company time and money.   You know that spreadsheets and SharePoint lists are not enough.  You have no budget; or maybe you have a budget, but cannot find the QMS software you want.

The most common conclusion is “We will write our own QMS software.” 

Participants of this webinar will learn about the challenges in designing, building, testing, documenting and maintaining homegrown QMS software from an industry veteran, John M. Cachat.   “It is a big leap from a single user software tool to a secured, multi-user, enterprise application.   Unless you hire a minimum of two people that are dedicated to this project full time, you will be facing an uphill battle.  The first person is a technical developer and the second person must have extensive QMS knowledge. 

Is there another option besides Make versus Buy?  YES.

Participants will also be shown a third option.  What if you did not have to start from scratch?  What if you could start with a robust set of templates and configure them exactly the way you want?  What if the technology provided all the security, and screen, menu workflow development, and automated documentation?  What if the technology came with tools to integrate with ERP software? A built in report writer and easy to create charts with double click drill down capability?

This is a must attend event for any company considering or already starting to develop their own QMS software.
