An effective quality control program defines the quality management system and the policy, objectives, organization, responsibilities and procedures used to ensure the effective planning, operation and control of processes that affect the quality, reliability and safety of products and services. The quality control program should ensure that Customers and regulatory authorities have access to quality control program documentation. An efficient quality management system ensures Company personnel have access to quality control program documentation and are aware of relevant quality control system procedures. Measuring and monitoring of quality management is expected to increase the effectiveness of the quality control program and satisfy business needs. Information from the analysis of quality system records should be included in on-going planning at appropriate intervals during each calendar year to ensure that quality control program processes achieve planned results. Records of quality activities should be maintained by the quality management system.

Do you need to convert your effective QMS into an efficient quality program management system?
- Efficient QMS™ -

eQMS software transforms any quality plan to a state-of-the-art quality control program that enables your existing employees to achieve compliance to any commercial or industry sponsored quality system standard. eQMS is an efficient quality 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.

User-friendly point-and-click operation.

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 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.

A QMS pedigree requires extensive resources and tools to achieve certification, and significant overhead to maintain the system for annual assessment. eQMS was designed to achieve QMS certification using existing employees to significantly cut and eliminate overhead expenses. Most business managers set a goal to increase revenues with a QMS pedigree but call upon their employees to implement and maintain a complex QMS standard with few tools to accomplish the task - like an unfunded mandate. All our Customers consider eQMS a formidable tool in their arsenal of business resources to facilitate Company policy and keep "things" under control.

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 so much more - the 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 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."

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 using Efficient QMS™. 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 quality manager, which always makes it easier on the Company - then we:
built-in a daily planner with reminder capability for everybody that can't remember everything they need to do,
enabled flexibility to add or remove categories for ERP capability,
enabled on-line editing and configuration management of all procedures and work instructions using Process Maker,
enabled transition to a paperless-process by converting almost any paper form to a database-process using Form Maker,
made it easy to navigate for all Users (its a web-based interface) - and we,
know we can't mention every feature - there are too many...

We invented Efficient QMS™ out of self-preservation and it has saved countless hours of labor and significantly improved the bottom-line. User's intuitively navigate eQMS because it is browser-based and because it is so convenient to access QMS documents and forms after login. We recommend installation of eQMS on an external webhost to enable "road warriors" to access project records in realtime.

Question from atk.com about how to report significant digits for first article inspection report:

Can you help me report significant digits related to first articles??

Hello,

Thanks for your question - please see ASTM E 29 for the industry standard rounding technique, which is applicable to all scientific work regardless of its nature (first article included).

ASTM states:

"When the digit next beyond the last place to be retained is less than 5, retain unchanged the digit in the last place retained.
When the digit next beyond the last place to be retained is greater than 5, increase by 1 the digit in the last place retained.
When the digit next beyond the last place to be retained is 5 and there are no digits beyond this 5 or only zeros, increase by 1 the digit in the last place retained if it is odd, leave the digit unchanged if it is even. Increase by 1 the digit in the last place retained if there are digits beyond this 5.
The rounded value must be obtained in one step by direct rounding of the most precise value available and not in two or more successive roundings."

We cite ASTM E 29 in Company documents whenever part of the work instruction is to report significant digits for compliance to a spec with only 1, 2, 3 or 4 decimal places. If your measuring device's readout displays more decimal places than the specification then you are required to round your reading to match the number of decimal places in the specification - that's where ASTM E 29 comes in handy...

Example - 0.021"±0.001"
0.0211" to 0.0214" must be rounded down to 0.021" for 2 significant digit specifications;
0.0215" to 0.0219" must be rounded up to 0.022" for 2 significant digit specifications;
(unless the last retained digit from the rounding method is even, e.g., 0.0225" is rounded down to 0.022" since the last digit retained is even, while 0.0226" is rounded up to 0.023")

Example - 0.0215"±0.0015"
0.0211" to 0.0219" must be applied as observed - no rounding is possible if the measurement equipment can only read to the 4th decimal place. If the equipment is capable of reading beyond the 4th decimal place then round to the last digit retained as described herein paying particular attention to whether the retained digit is odd or even when followed by the numeral 5.

Example - 550±50
499.1 to 499.4 must be rounded down to 499
499.5 to 499.9 must be rounded up to 500
600.1 to 600.5 must be rounded down to 600
600.6 to 600.9 must be rounded up to 601

Please find this rounding method in our catalog at "General Requirements".

Hope this information helps your project.
