Component traceability on show at Aero Engineering 2010

Visitors to Aero Engineering 2010 at the NEC, Birmingham, on 29-30 September will have a chance to see demonstrations of Jobshop and discuss their particular requirements with product specialists. With many years experience of working with aerospace and defense companies, Jobshop is a flexible, scalable and intelligent system offering functionality and value in the key areas of manufacturing and assembly. It supports SME organisations to make productivity improvements and lower IT infrastructure costs. The software is ideal for meeting First Article Inspection (FAI) standards on traceability as Jobshop's general manager, Paul Holmes, explains: "Using the array of specialist features simplifies procedures such as operations, scheduling and costing, but in particular it enables manufacturers to meet traceability standards in being able to provide full evidence right the way through the production process." The system means companies can readily manage procedures including: estimate and quotations; sales order processing; material requirements planning; purchase orders; work orders; scheduling; shop floor data capture; materials control; costing and document management. Supporting direct interfaces to leading accounts packages, Jobshop supports investment in existing systems and can also be easily integrated with new peripheral systems. The Jobshop brand is part of Planit software.
