This software helped us go from handwritten excel spreadsheets to a totally digital/cloud-based system. The initial setup was far less complicated than we had imagined as well.

The ease of use is definitely a plus when using and training personnel on this software. All inspectors were trained within one business day, which helps with the transition from a previously used software to 1factory. As a QE the reporting side is my favorite tool that 1factory has. Before 1factory it would take a couple of days to gather all the information needed to present to the board once a month. Now with 1factory the reports make themselves, just make sure you are filling in all the required information. MSA uses the NCR charts to attack areas that need attention, whether it be supplier defects or reoccurring shop floor defects. This drives Corrective Action, which 1factory also as superb CAPA module that has a task management side to drive actions with dates! The time it used to take me to write inspections plans is cut down tremendously with being able to click on dimensions and setting frequencies to check said dimensions at. This also takes the human error out of it when looking at drawing with 50+ dimensions. Another plus is the visibility, everyone that has a seat on the software can see tasks, PPM's (Internally & externally) & supplier performance. Another plus was the customization that Nipun and his team provide. They are always striving to make this software even greater than it already is. Since we have started around a year ago our wish for Gage management, Audit findings & Approved Vendor list has been achieved and is live. Nipun and his team are always available to work through any issues we have had and they have came up with a plan to work out any issues we have had. Which is not much.
