Trubiquity's cloud-based TRUcentrix receives IT Innovation Award
It received the IT Innovation category at the 2013 Automotive Supply Chain Global Awards - a category which embodies a provider’s ability to innovative while delivering the technology, design, and service that add significant value to the manufacturing process - with a solution that can also improve supply chain value in the aerospace and defence industries.
The winning entry described the measurable time and cost savings achieved by a Tier 1 automotive supplier’s use of TRUcentrix, a cloud-based collaboration software platform, to automate the Production Part Approval Process (PPAP).
Suppliers are under constant pressure to meet aggressive functional, quality, cost, and delivery requirements of their automotive OEM customers. By providing centralised collection, management and approval processing of PPAP documents, the supplier was afforded improved communications, increased productivity, error reduction and critical real-time status visibility.
Ted Lesher, Trubiquity’s vice president commented: “We are delighted to be recognized for the innovative functionality, time and cost saving results of our TRUcentrix data exchange and collaboration solution. As with our entire suite of products and services, this platform advances our customer’s ability to improve quality and reduce time to market through automation of their supplier-facing business processes.”
The automotive, aerospace and defence industries are key sectors for Trubiquity, as is evidenced by the number of premier global automotive OEM’s and suppliers using Trubiquity technology throughout the Americas, Europe and Asia Pacific.
Ted Lesher continues: “The aerospace and defence sectors have also recognised the value and importance of secure collaboration and process automation technology as Trubiquity continues to address regulatory compliance challenges facing global supply chains.”
