Do you need to convert your effective QMS into an efficient quality program management system?
- Efficient QMS™ -
eQMS software transforms any quality plan to a state-of-the-art quality control program that enables your existing employees to achieve compliance to any commercial or industry sponsored quality system standard. eQMS is an efficient quality program that is operated on the world-wide-web or your company's private network to reduce overhead expenses, simplify the business operation and/or achieve a QMS pedigree - or operate with software-based project management tools.
User-friendly point-and-click operation.
Efficient QMS™ quality system software was developed to eliminate undesirable overhead expenses and labor-intensive QMS system maintenance. If you're a small business with few employees that must compete with large businesses that have a certified quality system, please click here to learn more about the Efficient QMS™ software quality management system.
A QMS pedigree requires extensive resources and tools to achieve certification, and significant overhead to maintain the system for annual assessment. eQMS was designed to achieve QMS certification using existing employees to significantly cut and eliminate overhead expenses. Most business managers set a goal to increase revenues with a QMS pedigree but call upon their employees to implement and maintain a complex QMS standard with few tools to accomplish the task - like an unfunded mandate. All our Customers consider eQMS a formidable tool in their arsenal of business resources to facilitate Company policy and keep "things" under control.
Efficient QMS™ is a self-contained resource that's accessible on your internal network or over the internet. Users can login to mine the data, sign authorizations, do homework, complete unfinished tasks, quote from the manual or procedures, access drawings and work instructions and so much more - the office is always open and your business files are always handy...!
From the Quality Manager of Electro Energy Inc:
"Efficient QMS™ helped us achieve a 99% score from our certification audit and helped us maintain our QMS after being downsized. The Auditors from NSF-ISR remarked that our quality program was in their top ten list of best practices."Efficient QMS(tm) is a solution for companies that must protect their existing business and desire to compete for more business with Customers that want their Suppliers or Contractors to have a QMS pedigree - or operate with software-based project management tools.
We have very carefully created a browser-based working environment for management of simple or complex quality systems using Efficient QMS™. We have succeeded in achieving the goal of operating a pedigree QMS without the need to hire additional personnel to maintain the QMS. In addition, eQMS Users are able to maintain a certified QMS when the business is victimized by down-sizing.
We designed Efficient QMS™ with emphasis on preserving the sanity of the quality manager, which always makes it easier on the Company - then we:
built-in a daily planner with reminder capability for everybody that can't remember everything they need to do,
enabled flexibility to add or remove categories for ERP capability,
enabled on-line editing and configuration management of all procedures and work instructions using Process Maker,
enabled transition to a paperless-process by converting almost any paper form to a database-process using Form Maker,
made it easy to navigate for all Users (its a web-based interface) - and we,
know we can't mention every feature - there are too many...We invented Efficient QMS™ out of self-preservation and it has saved countless hours of labor and significantly improved the bottom-line. User's intuitively navigate eQMS because it is browser-based and because it is so convenient to access QMS documents and forms after login. We recommend installation of eQMS on an external webhost to enable "road warriors" to access project records in realtime.
