We are a custom weld/fabrication company of 50+ employees. My current task is to document-develop Control of Documents and Records. Currently we only utilze a couple of low level instructions and no documented processes or procedures. We currently apply little control to documents/records.

Products are manufactured using a traveler having customer and product information, product drawing(s) and a sheet attached to record manufacturing hours. Most, not all, travelers get back to office and filed with p.o. Yes, we have MANY self inflicted problems to work through weekly, thus we are revamping our operations to meet above mentioned standards. Ownership has been very supportive of planned changes .

Now to the purpose of my post. I'm hoping that a few of you could donate a few minutes toward reviewing the attached and comment whether or not the information within the attach, if applied, would satisfy related requirements of above standard. Attached includes a couple of elements not required (suggested by one of our customers,) that I may move to a lower level document. I think they have value. I'm also hoping that our upcoming electronic document management will replace elements in red text. We have many other work instruction and procedures documented and ready to implement once attached or similar is implemented.

Your donation / comments will be appreciated.

Is there a cheap and easy way to apply the bubbles without buying some expensive software? The feature ID numbers can range into the thousands.

I have seen some posts about using excel. I am not sure how this works. I do have access to Mastercam. We don't have models with built in MBD.

Any suggestions??

I'm really new on this forum but I saw that you are skilled so I decide to join it in order to learn from your experiances.:rolleyes:
Actually I'm still a student and I do a placement in order to finish my studies...

And that's why I'm here. We want to make a system controling 100% of our injected parts by weight.
Can I give a return of experiance of such a system from somebody?
As an information, our parts are 1,7g.
Another things I would like to know : Did someone made studies on relations that weight and dimensions can have in an injected part?

Thank you. :bigwave: ]]> Documentation Control Systems, Procedures, Forms and Templates fredoch66 http://Elsmar.com/Forums/showthread.php?t=54120 Engineering Change Control Software Systems - Recommendations? http://Elsmar.com/Forums/showthread.php?t=54061&goto=newpost Tue, 17 Apr 2012 14:11:11 GMT hi everyone,
I'm trying to bring our site to the 21st century on documentation control - especially Engineering Change and keeping track of those pesky concessions.
Going through an Engineering magazine, I came across a system called Enovia. Has anyone used it? what's it like? How does it link to EPDM?
Any other systems you'd recommend for a very large international automotive site?
much appreciated!

I feel this question may have an easy answer, but I always feel much better after confirming with my smart friends here at the Cove..

I have decided to update / adjust the identification of our job descriptions. All of our documents (including job descriptions) are controlled with a QMF number. For example, the job description for the office assistant is identified with QMF 02.

I want to seperate the way the job descriptions are identified from the way other documents are identified.

All of the other documents will remain being identified with a QMF number and I want to change the identification of the job descriptions to being identified with a CS-JD-XXX number.

My question - (I know, finally right?) - After I change the identification of the job descriptions, do I have to have EVERYONE re-sign the job descriptions? Or is it grandfathered in a way where it wouldnt be required?

I just want to check on this so that the next time I get audited I am prepared.

Thanks so much for any help!!!
