Quick Execution of ISO 9001:2000 Attributed to equationASP
Prism eSolutions' equationASP

Solar Technology Inc. is a developer, manufacturer and marketer of solar-powered traffic control devices for highway work zones, including advance warning arrow panels, traffic signals and changeable message signs. Recent expansion into the European market prompted Solar Technology to hurriedly seek ISO 9001:2000 compliance.

 "With the tremendous growth that we've experienced in the past three years, ISO 9001:2000 is a must for us," comments Eric Zerphy, vice president of research and development and COO of the Allentown, Pennsylvania-based company. In order to accomplish this task, Solar Technology chose equationASP, a Web-based platform designed by Prism eSolutions.

 Prism eSolutions' equationASP is designed to speed the process of ISO 9000 conformance through a Web-based collaborative platform, supporting strategic process improvement through integrated project, document, training and communications management. Among the features of the equationASP system are  integrated document control and development, which eliminate redundant and unnecessary documentation; streamlined communications among process team members and management; context for process improvement through construction of appropriate environments for ISO 9000 implementation; point-of-need delivery, which synchronizes the delivery of ISO 9000 training and consulting with end users' schedules; and on-demand solutions through Web access to Prism's consulting and training services.

 The implementation of equationASP allowed the organization to utilize the Web-based application and support infrastructure hosted by Prism at a secure third-party facility. This architecture eliminated up-front software and hardware costs, as well as internal tech support. Designed as a total strategic process solution, the application speeds ISO 9000 implementation time by up to 50 percent while reducing costs by half.

 With the application, Solar Technology was able to gain full compliance to ISO 9000 in only five months. "Prism's consultants were invaluable throughout the process, and equationASP helped us smoothly implement a system that will be key in helping us support future growth, maintain product quality and enhance customer satisfaction," says Zerphy.
