DocPipes Compliance is a web based information dashboard designed to streamline the safety and Emissions Certification process for automobile manufacturers and enforce document compliance. The tool allows an organization to capture the business rules associated with Safety and Emissions Certifications and enforce them throughout the process.
DocPipes® Compliance Center - The Vehicle Collaborative
The DocPipes® Vehicle Collaborative provides the foundation element and primary interface by which clients interact with their certification repository. From this web-based Graphical User Interface (GUI), a client can track, manage, and view their product compliance to global, homologated legislative requirements.
This robust user experience dramatically reduces the labor a product manufacturer requires to assure compliance by providing all prerequisite features such as Design Cycle Planning, Product Variant and Version Management, Engineering Carryover, and Legislative Equivalents. Additionally, the Collaborative stores all Proof of Compliance documentation and enforces certification policies and processes as required to meet ISO 9000 procedural compliance.
DocPipes® RegCenter - The Legislative Library
One of the major issues manufactures face is the myriad of legislative and regulatory requirements that a manufacturer must meet to assure that their products comply with the mandated requirements for shipment to a given market. When the dynamic legislative process is coupled with the growing markets and desire for manufacturers to deliver their products to more and new markets, the task of manually compiling the legislative requirements is a non value add burden that today every manufacturer must bear as part of its development costs.
Utilizing the DocPipes® Workflow tools, the DocPipes® provides an integrated Legislative Library with the Collaborative. Essentially auto-populated by robotic document workflows, directly synchronized with the clients Collaborative, the RegCenter allows for the elimination of the repetitive labor and essentially unnecessary task of pulling legislation documentation. Usage of this library will be provided on a yearly subscription basis.
DocPipes® Knowledge MarketCenter
From a compliance perspective, most daunting task a vehicle or part manufacturer faces is assembling the knowledge that defines test plans and methods required to assure legislative compliance. Although most large manufacturers devote a group or organization solely to this task, the simple truth is that this burden is also redundantly shared across similar product manufacturers.
The effort required to maintain this expertise and info-base is constantly eroded by workforce reductions and the retirement of expert engineers. The DocPipes® Knowledge MarketCenter allows for a marketspace whereby engineering knowledge can be stored, maintained, and sold.
This marketspace allows for expertise providers to sell their "Knowledge Templates", allowing for subscription to these templates, Collaborative clients will be able to purchase new product templates and remain synchronized to engineering experts for a fraction of the cost of employing an in-house expert.
