"We love the different dynamic and data-driven thinking the QR_ team provide when they are brought onto project with us."
Senior Project Leader, defense prime
The mission:
Remedy bottlenecks delaying the release of new documents within the PLM system created by new Problem Report, Change Request, and Change Notice processes.
QR_'s approach and impact
A team of PDM coordinators were brought in to work at-elbow with the engineering teams to support:
- Assigning reviewers to all change objects.
- Acting as a point of contact to push approvals and reviews required for documentation releases.
- Resolving bottlenecks limiting release throughput time.
- Reporting change and release metrics.
- Acting as a PLM system technical support function.
- Working as PLM system super-users.
- Creating and up-issuing documents after changes are approved.
- Authoring Product Structure in PLM.
