A policy of the Distributor quality control system is to perform all activities in a manner that reflects a total commitment to quality. A policy of the distributor / manufacturer quality control program is to prevent production and distribution of products that would pose unreasonable risks to health, safety or the environment. It is a goal of the distributor quality control system to encourage all employees to strive for individual excellence in their work and in their association with other people inside and outside of the workplace. At-PQC™ distributor quality control program Kits have been produced to provide guidance to achieve the policies and goals that continually improve products and services.

Would you like to convert your QMS into an extremely efficient quality management system?

- Efficient QMS™ -

eQMS software transforms any quality plan to a state-of-the-art quality program that enables your existing employees to achieve compliance to any 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.

- 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 about Efficient QMS™ software quality management system (QMS) that we designed to achieve certification using existing employees to implement and maintain complex QMS standards such as AISC or AS9100, AS9110, AS9120 or ISO 9001.

Efficient QMS™ helped us achieve a 99% score from our certification audit and helped us maintain the system after being downsized. Our Registrar's audit team remarked that the quality program put us in their top ten list of best businesses.

Efficient QMS(tm) is a solid solution for Company's 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.

We have very carefully created a browser-based working environment for management of 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, Users are able to maintain an auditable QMS when the business is victimized by down-sizing.

We designed Efficient QMS™ with emphasis on preserving the sanity of the quality manager - then we:
made it easy to navigate for all Users,
enabled flexibility to add or remove categories,
enabled transition to a paperless process using Form Maker,
made it easy to convert any paper form used by the business,
built-in a daily planner with reminder capability.

We invented Efficient QMS™ out of self-preservation and it has saved countless hours of labor for our Customers. User's intuitively navigate eQMS because it is browser-based and because QMS documents and forms are readily available to any authorized User that can access the network or website. We recommend installation of eQMS on an external webhost to enable "road warriors" to access project records in realtime.

Efficient QMS™ is not pay-as-you-go software - pay one-time for all-time if you desire.

We provide paper-based quality management systems so we know their value, but they have one inherent problem that can't be overcome - they're always somewhere else when you need them...! When you finally get to them they may not be the latest revision because they're hardcopy. If your business is like any other then you're constantly improving your documents, which means your system could overlook updating your hardcopy that was issued to you a few months or years ago. Whenever you touch a hardcopy you have to think, "Am I using the latest procedure or work instruction?" - "Am I going to make scrap because this document is out-of-date?". These inherent hardcopy problems are dinosaur-eggs that can hatch anytime to eat your hard-earned dollars!

Efficient QMS™ doesn't allow dinosaur-eggs to lay around in your business operation to hatch at the worst possible time. Documents and records within eQMS can easily be kept up-to-date and they are available to you from any computer in your business or anywhere in the world if you deploy them to the internet. Every login to eQMS requires a password so your documents and records are protected from prying-eyes. Efficient QMS™ also provides you with a secure signature so you can sign important documents anytime from any computer on your network or the internet.

Evaluate eQMS to see how it can dramatically improve the efficiency of the quality program that you need to keep your Customers from going to your competitor. Any size business, including a one, two or three person shop, can now compete to win new business or keep their existing business by operating any QMS, including AS9003, AS9100, AS9110, AS9120, ISO 9001, ISO 15161, MIL-I-45208, MIL-Q-9858, FAA-PMA or Repair Station, TS16949, Construction, Maintenance, Machine Shop, Engineering, or any Customer required quality system by using a truly Efficient QMS™!
