Why must your QMS be configurable
In today's fast-paced business environment, it's essential to have a Quality Management System (QMS) that is configurable and adaptable to the changing needs of your organization. A configurable QMS is a software solution that can be tailored and customized to meet the unique requirements of your organization, rather than being a one-size-fits-all solution, but what does the term configurable really mean in Software?.
Software configurability refers to the degree to which a software application can be adjusted and customized to meet the specific requirements and needs of an organization. It is an important consideration when looking for a solution that can be adapted to the unique processes and workflows. Why you may ask, because configurability allows you to change and adjust features, workflows, and settings within the application to fit your business specific needs. This can include the ability to add custom fields, create new workflows, or modify existing ones, as well as the ability to enable or disable certain features or functionalities. Is that all, of course not, here are some more reasons why your QMS needs to be configurable:
1. Improved Efficiency: A configurable QMS can streamline your quality management processes and improve efficiency by automating manual tasks, reducing the risk of errors, and providing real-time insights into your quality management data.
2. Better Integration with Other Systems: A configurable QMS can easily integrate with other systems, such as your ERP or CRM, to provide a more comprehensive view of your quality management data. This can help you make informed decisions and improve the overall quality of your products and services.
3. Increased Flexibility: A configurable QMS can be adapted and updated as your organization evolves, ensuring that your quality management processes remain relevant and up-to-date. This can help you stay ahead of the competition and remain compliant with industry regulations.
4. Enhanced Collaboration: A configurable QMS can facilitate collaboration between different departments and stakeholders, enabling you to work together towards a common goal of improving quality.
Now that we know why Configurability is great but is it enough? the simple answer is not unless the power user or Admin can use this configurability in their everyday tasks and needs to adjust and modify your QMS applications, forms, phases, and workflows to meet users’ needs. That’s what sets a great QMS from all others. A great QMS lets you Configure without ever needing code and without scripting (writing formulas), this allows for a broader range of users to utilize the technology effectively. Think Rule Wizards that allow you to configure basic or complex rules using a graphical interface. The importance of configuring software solutions without writing scripts or formulas lies in the benefits it provides to organizations. By eliminating the need for technical expertise, organizations can save time, reduce costs, and increase efficiency. Business users can make changes to the software as needed, without having to rely on IT staff or software developers.
Additionally, configuring software solutions without writing scripts or formulas enables organizations to implement and make changes to the software more quickly and without having to wait for programming resources or IT support. This can empower organizations to take control of their software and make the changes they need to meet their specific requirements and needs, and it will also lead to faster implementation times, improved user adoption, and hence increased user satisfaction and overall success of their software implementation.
Having a configurable QMS is crucial for improving quality management processes, as well as meet industry standards and regulatory requirements and stay ahead of the competition. It ensures easy updates and scalability as the organization grows and evolves, so that the quality management practices remain effective and up to date.
