Yes you can!

Operating across multiple sites ZEBSOFT alleviates problems associated with accountability.

All aspects of control are as a result of effective communication. The system allows you to define what you need to communicate and gives you the mechanism to communicate effectively.

Issuing documents; compliance, policies & control you can issue documents across the whole organisation instantly, with document management it is easy to see who has read, accepted and signed for the information. Issue and send reminders where required until compliance is achieved.

Sites, depots, offices, departments and individuals contribute to the system as a whole, through feedback, change requests, tasks and audit results, all containing opportunities for improvement.

Audit results can be viewed as they are entered, and will generate automatic alerts when required. Required intervention can be actioned immediately allowing you to control multiple areas of any organisation from one single point.

Control over the whole of an organisation where multiple departments and sites exist can be difficult due to the fragmented nature of how the information is obtained and stored. Commonly multi-site control is segregated by area and management levels.

AS9100D (Aerospace Quality Management System)

Controlled by International Aerospace Quality Group (IAQG) & Effectively Managed with ZEBSOFT

AS9100D is achieved by following the rules laid down in the standard, although these rules are the same for organizations. The way in which those rules are applied is different in all organizations. Aerospace is a very serious subject matter therefore although it shares the same framework as ISO9001 but has supplemental clauses designed by the IAQG to meet their own requirements. There is little flexibility in the interpretation of the requirements therefore this is a standard for those who are 100% focused on quality management.

Certification to AS9100D is an important step if your business is looking to maintained or enter into relationships with aerospace customers as a requirement for them is that their supply chain is AS9100D certified. In the UK the certification must be conducted by a UKAS accredited certification body.

IAQG Full Members include: Aero Engine Corporation of China, Aerospace Industrial Development Corp., Airbus, Aviation Industry Corporation of China, BAE Systems, Boeing, Commercial Aircraft Corporation of China, ltd., GE Aviation, Gulfstream, Hensoldt, IHI Corporation, Kawasaki Heavy Industries Ltd., Korea Aerospace Industries Lts.

ISO create voluntary standards that you choose to follow. ZEBSOFT makes implementation incredibly easy!

ISO certification is achieved by demonstrating compliance with the clauses / rules in the standard you have chosen, these rules are the same for all organisations.

The way the rules are applied are different depending on the size and complexity of your organisation / business.

Achieving ISO is a simple process, you need a system to control & define the following:

• Organisation / business structure
• Roles, responsibilities & authorities
• Operational controls (9001=Quality 14001=Enviro 45001=H&S etc.)
• Business processes
• Organisational policy
• Organisational objectives & KPI’s
• Organisational context
• What it is you do, the “scope” of the system
• Internal communication
• What you need to check
• How you review your performance
• How you control things that go wrong
• Future planning requirements
• Who has an interest in your business
• Risks associated with what you do
• What law / regulation applies to your organisation / business
• The documents you use & how they are controlled
• How you control equipment used for measurement
• How you control infrastructure & its maintenance

All organisations are dependent on their infrastructure and we offer you the simple way to control it.

ZEBSOFT has a dedicated equipment & asset management platform that will allow you to control all your assets from a condition monitoring and regulatory control perspective.

The platform works in conjunction with a planning matrix that allows for multiple years, unlimited equipment numbers and unlimited activities for each piece of equipment.

During monitoring relevant reminders and tasks can be set to control the status, ensuring communication to those who need to be aware.

Your people need to be aware of equipment condition status or pending need for repair or replacement. Make the planning processes easy and manage your spend on new equipment. Any loss of resource has an effect on your organisations ability to service customers needs.

Managing continuous improvement

Improvement is the result of planning, acting & monitoring the output and making the changes required to do it better, and better until we are making just fine adjustments.

The result of this continual improvement process is that our customers become happier with products and services thus over a period of time and the value of the organisation increases.

ZEBSOFT has defined the process to make continual improvement the default setting. The system creates an environment where everyone in the organisation both contributes and responds to the management system.

Certification bodies are accredited by Accreditation bodies. Accreditation bodies are generally government recognised.

Organisations are “Certified” not accredited this is a common misconception. The certification body providing the audit and certificate may be accredited however, this is not a requirement by the International Organisation for Standardisation ISO

No but we can provide the ZEBSOFT with a certification audit included in the implementation process from a UKAS or independent Certification bodies (Prices vary ask for a quotation)

Zebsoft is a management system, the content of the management system is audited by a certification body, the certification body provides the relevant certification for the organisation.

Our most valuable assets are people as they hold the key to our operational success and hold much of the knowledge required for us to conduct our processes effectively.

Importantly the term people includes “Sub-Contractors” ZEBSOFT allows you to add sub-contractors to the system and communicate with them in the same way as you would with your employed staff.

Effective management requires a communicated structure of roles, reporting, responsibilities and authorities. The ZEBSOFT platform allocates these effectively and defines the organisation structure across all areas, users are able to see where they sit in the organisation and the reporting lines to be followed.

Organisations in compliant environments are expected to provide evidence of the skills, training and competency of their people is required by regulation and has to be checked and monitored. licences and certification where required must be evidenced. The ZEBSOFT skills platform allows for the control of records and the ability to cross reference and analyse skills across the organisation preempting and avoiding gaps in its skills and knowledge.

All ISO standards are geared towards continual improvement, we make that process simple so you will continually improve.

QMS – Quality Management System.

The term quality management may mislead people in some instances, what we are actually talking about is organisational management and all the aspects of exercising control over a situation or environment, to a degree where we achieve what we set out to. Having the ability to monitor and improve products and environments means that we can increase our customer and or user experience, therefore we improve their perception of our quality of product or service enhancing their satisfaction.

ISO does not approve any management system, they are the body that creates standards and this is what say about themselves:

ISO is an independent, non-governmental international organisation with a membership of 164 national standards bodies.

Through its members, it brings together experts to share knowledge and develop voluntary, consensus-based, market relevant International Standards that support innovation and provide solutions to global challenges.

ZEBSOFT will provide for all the requirements set out in ISO standards the content is yours.

ZEBSOFT has been developed to be intuitive and simple therefore the answer is no.

It is of great benefit to ISO & Compliance professionals in large organisations.

Small to medium organisations, or any organisation starting off with an ISO implementation.

Zebsoft will provide a simple and efficient way of managing systems without ISO & Compliance professionals.

UKAS is the United Kingdom Accreditation Service.

Accreditation is not to be confused with certification, UKAS is an accreditation body that accredits certification bodies, the firms that provide ISO Certificates.

If it says UKAS on an Organisations certificate this does not mean they are “UKAS Registered/Accredited” it simply means the “Certification Body” they use is UKAS Accredited.

ZEBSOFT is suitable for all UKAS accredited certification Bodies and is the system used in many certified management systems today.

Document management

Documents are extremely important as these are the method by which we communicate, we all know how important communication is.

The way we in which we store documents can be a risk, not only in terms of the risk of losing it, the unauthorised modifying of the document, but also the purpose of the document itself. In many instances, documents are need to provided evidence of something required by rules or regulations.

With Zebsoft you can publish documents and inform all relevant recipients that there is a new document, but also, that it needs to be electronically signed as proof that it has been read.  Within the document management screen you can see who has signed, that they have read the document and if necessary, resend on an individual basis.

Create a document online using the WYSIWYG editor, or upload a PDF document.  Once created or uploaded, the document will then display all relevant naming protocols revisions and issue dates together with the authority of the issuing user i.e. Top management.  You are also able to assign document groups and document classification conforming to ISO27001 standards.

Effective date, Review date, Approved by, Document version, Document type, Document Sensitivity, Allocated Site, Approval status.

Documents are system imbedded so that the system has total control of all versions of a document. The document archive contains all previous versions and retains signing history for the iteration.

ZEBSOFT uses a combination of user site allocation and document sensitivity to create a ranging visibility pattern from everyone can see, to only specified individuals can see documents.

ZEBSOFT will definitely help with the certification process, the system is founded on an ISO framework and as default has the specific elements for the following standards:

• ISO9001 Quality Management Systems
• ISO14001 Environmental Management Systems
• ISO45001 Occupational Health & Safety Management Systems
• ISO22301 Business Continuity Management Systems
• ISO27001 Information Security Management Systems
