Boeing knew that there
was a better way to capture all of the information
required for the management of the Missile program
in the Duluth, Ga. facility. They wanted to try to
control and get better access to the thousands of
documents that were generated for the program each
week. In addition to that they wanted to be able to
access the information in a way that made sense and
gave them the ability to access all related
documents, so that they could eliminate the
nightmare of searching though file cabinets to find
the correct paper trail of information. The goal of
this project was to be able to respond quicker to
request for information on the
the status of the program and get better
control of the massive amount of paperwork that was
inherent with the program.
CIMSgts
provided Boeing with an enterprise wide Integrated
Document Management solution, and two years of
consulting services for the program. This Boeing
site was a missile manufacturing facility and the
Integrated Document Management system kept track of
all documents related to the program. These included
many different formats of information from scanned
paperwork to official correspondence, contracts,
email, faxes, etc that go into and out of the
facility. All of the documents were cross referenced
so that they could be related back to the Contract
Line Item or Work Order. This developed a built in
paper trail and added accountability into the
system.
The Integrated
Document Management system also provided a very high
level of document security, which
was important for the program. In addition
Boeing required extensive integration with the
Microsoft Office environment to make it easier for
the users to capture all related correspondence.
Then the system was expanded into the Accounts
Payable, Payroll, Travel, Contracts and Human
Resources departments, and all of that information
is now captured into the system.
The solution was
developed using an Integrated Document Management
system, Capture Software and Fax Server Software.
CIMSgts provided the custom programming and
integration services to tailor the solution to the
requirements of Boeing’s environment.
