About APQP on the Web

ShopEdge software is excited to announce the public beta release of our APQP on the Web software platform. It is a web-based solution, that can be setup in minutes.

The system is a tool for manufacturers to keep their APQP processes on track. APQP on the Web keeps your process on track by keeping team members informed of task status and upcoming due dates, and customers informed by allowing them to easily track progress.

No matter the size of your company, APQP on the Web can help simplify your APQP process. Small manufacturers can benefit from the features that keep your customers updated with project status, and large manufacturers can benefit from the features that enhance your internal and external communication.

Internal Communication

The system is designed to streamline internal communication. As a project manager, potential problems are easily identified. You can view upcoming project milestones, overdue tasks and project summary information by by customer, department, or by user. You can also force a response from users about specific tasks so progress is constantly updated. Prevent missed deadlines by easily identifying project bottlenecks and re-assigning project resources to get ahead.

As a team member, it is very easy to view your workload. The welcome screen presents users with a summary of all outstanding work, and tasks needing attention are highlighted. Users are also notified about changes in the system such as new projects, and new tasks.

External Communication

APQP on the Web makes it very easy to keep customers informed about project status. You can allow your customers to access the system so they can view any public information about a project, and you can also schedule the system to generate custom status reports that are emailed directly to customers.

The system also is a repository for project-related documentation. PPAP submission documents, FMEAs, and control plans can be attached to a project. Documents can be compiled into a submission package and emailed directly to customers.

Going Forward

ShopEdge is committed to producing a system based around your needs. Your feedback is important. That is why ShopEdge has decided to release the beta version of our software for public access. ShopEdge is allowing free public access to the beta version for a limited time. Once the software has reached a stable state, we will be releasing the final version. At that point, APQP on the Web will become a pay-only service. Pricing details will be released in the next couple of weeks.
