Electronic document management (EDM) is a key element in the organization and efficiency of industrial processes. How do you choose it?
Electronic document management (EDM) is a key element in the organization and efficiency of industrial processes. In a factory, where documentation is essential to ensure compliance, traceability and continuous improvement, it's crucial to choose a tool adapted to the specific needs of your production environment.
When selecting an EDM tool for a plant, several criteria must be taken into account:
- Management of technical and regulatory documents : The tool must enable easy storage, organization and retrieval of procedures, technical drawings, notices and certifications.
- Secure access and advanced permissions: It is important to control who can view, modify and approve each document to guarantee data confidentiality and integrity.
- Traceability and version management: Document updating must be controlled, with a history of modifications and the possibility of going back to previous versions.
- Mobility and accessibility: Operators must be able to consult documentation in real time, on site or remotely, via ergonomic interfaces on tablets and mobiles.
- Integration with other plant tools: A good EDM must be able to interact with ERP, MES (Manufacturing Execution System) or maintenance software.
