Change management

Automate your Engineering Change Management Processs

Changes are inevitable…but they must be carried out 'simply' with little administrative effort and without errors. In concrete terms: automate change processes and monitor the impact with PRO.FILE.

Change management

With PRO.FILE you coordinate and manage the entire ECM process - one single source of control

In development projects it is quite normal that something needs to be changed in the short term. This can throw off even the most accurate calculations and best planning. With manual change processes, the change can take quite some time and the risk of failure costs increases.
PRO.FILE coordinates changes and approval of CAD models, drawings and documents. You gain and maintain insight into the entire change process. The escalation model triggers the process or project managers. Deviations are automatically reported and the user can see the status of a change at any time. Steps in the change process, such as sending documents or generating an impact matrix (consequences of the change) can also be automated. The actual change costs can thus be viewed in an instant.

The added value of PRO.FILE:

  • PRO.FILE coordinates the changes to and approval of CAD models, drawings and documents.
  • PRO.FILE has intelligent change and approval management functionalities that implement workflows to accurately capture and document changes.
  • PRO.FILE offers Process Management and the Compliance functionality maximum security of the process, ensuring that your company complies with the applicable regulations and standards.

Your advantages:

  • Support for the entire life cycle process, fewer changes and lower error rates.
  • Your employees always use up-to-date data. Use of old versions is prevented.
  • Time-consuming errors resulting from incorrect data in production and project processes are prevented
  • Changes will be handled afterwards and checked afterwards.
  • There is grip on the entire process.
  • The number of errors decreased considerably.

The PRO.FILE change process in accordance with Engineering Change methodologies (ECN / ECR / ECO) .
The advantage for the entire organization is that adjustments and changes can be initiated in all departments and thus actually get a sequel. By using versions, revisions and statuses, changes to parts and products are tracked. Here, depending on the need, the history (audit trail) of the data can be kept up to date; who made a certain change when and for what reason. Afterwards, through reporting, you can always see what development a product has gone through. In this way knowledge is recorded and temporary employees or new employees can benefit from this available knowledge.

The added value of PRO.FILE:

  • Processes with flows for ECR, ECO and ECN document every change step.
  • PRO.FILE version and revision management ensures correct and current data throughout the process.
  • PRO.FILE process management and PRO.FILE Compliance ensure a guaranteed process run.
  • PRO.FILE supports the entire life cycle (PLM)!
