Hello folks,
We are hitting the limits of our calendar system in terms of being able to easily allocate resources (both human and test facility) efficiently. The problem mostly manifests in terms of "who is using resource x at the moment? Can we fit this other work in?" We want to be able to allocate test facility and test engineer to specific projects in a calendar format. As such, I would like to ask about your experiences in using different software solutions for laboratory scheduling management. What system are you currently using? Internal, software name/provider, etc How would you rate it out of 10? 1 = dogs breakfast, 10 = smoother than a McDonalds milkshake What systems have you used in the past? How would you rate them out of 10? What features do you wish you had? (We already have a Kanban-like solution for inquiry and project workflow management, but I imagine most of these systems will incorporate this or a laboratory sample tracking system) Feel free to reply off list to [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> if you are more comfortable doing so. I'm happy to anonymise the results and republish a list. I'm also posting this on a couple of other email forums so apologies for the s.p.a.m. All the best James James Pawson Managing Director & EMC Problem Solver Unit 3 Compliance Ltd EMC : Environmental & Vibration : Electrical Safety : CE & UKCA : Consultancy <http://www.unit3compliance.co.uk/> www.unit3compliance.co.uk | <mailto:[email protected]> [email protected] +44(0)1274 911747 | +44(0)7811 139957 2 Wellington Business Park, New Lane, Bradford, BD4 8AL Registered in England and Wales # 10574298 - ---------------------------------------------------------------- This message is from the IEEE Product Safety Engineering Society emc-pstc discussion list.
