IQMS Adds Quality Auditing to Leading ERP Solution to Track and Ensure Superior Manufacturing Processes

New EnterpriseIQ Module Monitors Compliance Standards and Identifies Areas for
Improvement; Addresses Key Concerns Across All Manufacturing Industries
PASO ROBLES, Calif.--(Business Wire)--
IQMS, an innovator in the design and development of extended Enterprise Resource
Planning (ERP) software, today announced the release of its Quality Audit
Module, the most recent addition to the IQMS EnterpriseIQ suite of products.
Using the new Quality Audit Module, manufacturers can ensure they meet industry
and corporate compliance measures, efficiently audit internal and external
processes and uncover crucial areas for improvement.

As with all the EnterpriseIQ modules and offerings, the Quality Audit Module is
a fully integrated component to IQMS` single-database ERP system that doesn`t
require costly third party systems or partners. As a result, manufacturers can
connect to all other aspects of their operations through one unified system.
Within the audit module, customers can assess inventory, Bills of Material,
Corrective Actions and shipping. Additionally, the IQMS Quality Audit Module
brings added efficiency with automated administration tasks such as scheduling
an audit, adding the scheduled item to the CRM calendar, or creating a meeting
for the audit in EnterpriseIQ CRM or Microsoft Outlook.

"Performing audit functionalities is an important part of many of manufacturing
companies. Working closely with our customers, the IQMS development team
identified the need for an audit module and worked quickly to extend the
capability through our solution," said Glenn Nowak, vice president at IQMS.
"IQMS continuously collaborates with manufacturers across a broad range of
industries and we are committed to offering complete functionality within a
single database ERP system. The EnterpriseIQ Quality Audit Module is the latest
installment of our dedication to our customers."

In the medical manufacturing industry, standards such as the Food and Drug
Administration`s (FDA) Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) require quality
auditing as part of compliance regulations. These standards have proven to
increase the quality of the manufacturing process and end products, and are
being adopted across various other industries. Using IQMS` fully integrated
Quality Audit Module, manufacturers can gain this enhanced operational
excellence as part of the complete EnterpriseIQ ERP solution.

EnterpriseIQ users who add the module will be able to audit internal and
external processes, such as packing slips, products, suppliers and customer
complaint forms. Using embedded workflow functionality, workflow Gantt charts
and document control, the Quality Audit Module can audit an overall process, or
a specific part of the process.

Solution Availability

The Quality Audit Module is available in EnterpriseIQ 7.7 release.
