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.
This is a free webinar.
This webinar may qualify for professional certification credit, and a certificate of participation will be distributed to all attendees.
