Automation in manufacturing - Print Shop ISO 9001

[qualprod]

Thanks Ninja
I already have an ISO 9001 system running.
The systems runs in other track, most of it, is paper based, I plan to migrate it to an Electronic system (software app).
On the other hand, with the help of a developer (My sql, PHP), we are developing a home made ERP, but with low
scope, I can´t afford developed apps. which are in the market.
The idea of an ERP, it is to automate our processes.
The ERP will follow basic principles of the manufacturing and including the required ISO records.
Hope is clearly explained.

You might want to look into Fishbowl. It is basically an open source ERP system that you can choose which segments you want. I have a couple of clients that use it. My impression is that it is not as slick as Job Boss or E2 but it works and it is essentially free.

I post here this issue because I´m considering ISO 9001.

I already have an ISO 9001 system running.

Ah, I misunderstood your first post and thought "considering ISO9001" meant you were not certified yet.

If you are already certified, I would put the task "Make ISO Docs electronic" near the bottom of my to do list. Almost anything else in an ERP launch has more payback than electronic documents do. It was the last module I launched...immediately following launching employee Vacation and Personal Day tracking...shows how little value it actually had...at least to us...
