Would you like to convert your QMS into an extremely efficient quality management system?



Does your company need a less costly business management tool to replace the best-in-class programs from Autodesk® Constructware® software for construction project management or Oracle's Primavera SureTrak Project Manager?

- Efficient QMS™ -

eQMS software transforms any quality plan to a state-of-the-art quality program that enables your existing employees to achieve compliance to any quality system standard. Ideal project management tool for construction projects using built-in Forms Maker, Daily Planner and 50 year calendar. eQMS is an efficient software 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.

Are you driven to convert your effective or undocumented QMS into an efficient quality management system to survive implementation and maintenance of standards like AISC, AS9100, AS9110, AS9120, ISO 9001, FAA FIS, FAA PMA, FAA Repair Station, Nadcap, USACE or other comprehensive QMS that you know is required to compete in today's world market?

Do you need realtime access to your QMS system and records using any device in your toolbox that can connect to the internet with a Browser?

Think of the advantages you'll have when you can remotely access Company policies, procedures, work instructions, forms and records or demonstrate for any Customer in realtime your commitment to quality.

See for yourself how you can access and operate demo Efficient QMS™ to browse what could be your quality system and records using your Blackberry, iPad, iPod, Palm or any device with internet Browser software.

Type-in the following address in your portable device or click the following link with your computer to begin using eQMS:

http://www.as9100-quality-system.com/demo

User-friendly point-and-click operation. Any device with Browser capability can access and operate eQMS so you're never cutoff from your records or QMS policies, procedures, work instructions and forms, including other categories and business documents that you assimilate into eQMS. 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 and no QMS documents 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. If you're a medium-to-large business and must find a way to transition from paper to electronic management then please click here to see for yourself how demo eQMS will make that process less painful.

A QMS pedigree requires extensive resources and tools to achieve certification and significant overhead to maintain the system for annual recertification. eQMS was designed to achieve QMS certification using existing employees and significantly reduce or eliminate overhead expenses.

Are you faced with the challenge to increase revenues and think a QMS pedigree will improve your odds? Do your budget limitations force you to call upon your employees to implement and maintain a complex QMS standard with diminishing resources?

All our Customers consider eQMS a formidable tool in their arsenal of business resources to facilitate Company policy and keep "things" under control and continuously improving.

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 demonstrate in realtime for your Customers how committed your Company is to quality. Your "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 AS9100 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."

FYI: Electro Energy purchased the Eagle-Picher (EP) Colorado Springs, CO facility in Oct 2003 and transferred all personnel as assets of the sale. The QA Mgr had been with EP since March 1981 and most other personnel had as many years of experience in the business. Between 2003 and 2005 the Company became publicly traded. It took a couple of years for old management to retire then new management decided on Dec 1, 2005, to acquire an AS9100 pedigree. By July 7, 2006 the Company had its pedigree from NSF-ISR with a 99% score using Efficient QMS™ as the foundation of their quality management system. The QA Mgr knew the sale of EP to EEI would cause a paradigm-shift so he began to develop a web-based QMS in April 2004 to make the culture shock less painful, not to mention that EEI inherited over 30 years of document baggage that had to quickly become "auditable". The result of all this effort is Efficient QMS™.

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. 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 men and women responsible for quality management, which, when done right, always continuously improves the Company - then we:

We invented Efficient QMS™ out of self-preservation and it has saved countless hours of labor and significantly decreased "management" expenses. User's intuitively navigate eQMS because it is browser-based and because it is such a convenient tool to access QMS documents and records after password-protected login.

We recommend installation of eQMS on an external webhost to enable "road warriors" to manage their business in realtime using any device with Browser capability. Not a bad idea if you're sitting with a Customer talking shop and suddenly need to browse some records. Think about the intangible return on investment from increased Customer confidence in the business operation.

Anywhere you can connect to the internet or internal server to login to eQMS is another tool to promote and manage your business.

Click the above demo links to see what is included in each version of eQMS using the Customer-type login, which limits access to blank forms and the QA System category to protect confidential or proprietary records.

Login Name: customer

The Customer-type login is very useful because it reduces access to only the category named "QA System" and its blank forms. Other categories added to eQMS are normally proprietary so we built-in a Customer-type login, which can also be used by Suppliers, Auditors, Prospects, Contacts and more...

Construction Quality Program Plan:

Considerations

In evaluating the construction management program, consideration should be given to Customer emphasis areas and the observations and findings of similar past programs. This evaluation should be incorporated in the risk assessment procedures. As appropriate, the risk assessment should provide for evaluating various phases of the program on a regular basis and document the reasons for not making detailed reviews.

Program areas where no major problems exist may not require detailed review. Program areas having major problems and those where insufficient information is available for drawing conclusions are candidates to be included in the review process.

A fundamental component of construction program management is an understanding of contract administration and construction quality. Contract administration is broadly defined as taking a project specification and producing a desired end product. Construction quality management involves traditional quality assurance measures employed to control and verify construction, material and product quality. It also encompasses broader topics of continuous quality improvement such as optimization of decision-making processes, innovative contracting practices for enhancing quality, performance feedback mechanisms, specification improvements and design refinements.

Quality construction is critical to a successful construction program. Completed construction projects represent tangible products that ultimately define the success of construction projects based on the level of delivered quality, which may include a variety of issues such as safety characteristics, operational efficiency during and after construction, materials quality and long-term durability, and financial value. The proper use and knowledge of effective construction quality management applications at the program and project level can provide the Customer with confidence that completed construction work meets the objectives for success.

Most construction projects should use some form of statistical quality assurance for construction work. Statistically based specifications are an effective means of ensuring a quality product and they are a fundamental component of construction quality management. Many construction projects are also using other quality improvement methods, such as obtaining and using Customer and User feedback, developing performance measures and goals and using various processes during construction to ensure quality workmanship. All of these quality improvement techniques fall within the broader context of construction quality management.

Quality assurance (QA) is the systematic process necessary to ensure the quality of a product. Quality assurance is an all-encompassing term that includes quality control, acceptance, independent assurance, dispute resolution and the use of qualified laboratories and personnel.

Plan Development

Generally, discussion of the basic who, what, where, when and how should comprise three to six pages with an additional two to four pages of detailed information for each major category of work. This does not include supplemental materials such as Subcontractor and Supplier plans, certifications, test data, and personnel resumes. Also, the QC plan should not contain repetitions of contract specifications and meaningless platitudes from quality textbooks.

No matter how much detail is in the plan, it can always be argued that more could be or should be included.

Quality Control Plan Overview

The following quality control (QC) plan contents are intended to serve as a generic tool to assist in preparing complete and useful QC plans. Each section addresses a major QC Plan item, for instance:

QC Plans for other projects can be developed following the above format.

The level of detailed information in any QC Plan will obviously change depending upon the size and complexity of the individual construction project. The above content is designed as a template and guide.

Note: Every QC plan should include examples of forms and reports that the Company will use to document and report the results of QC monitoring, which can appear as appendices in the QC plan. The forms and reports may differ from plan to plan depending on the type of project - for example:

Each QC plan should include samples of forms and reports that are appropriate to the project type.
