Once you purchase the CORE module, any other module can be added upon as per your organizational needs. Envision is very flexible and can be easily customized for specific organizational requirements. A high end client/server application with three tier application architecture, Envision uses latest COM+ technology on Microsoft platform. Envision can on choice make relevant information available on the web server so that entire mobile and local user community can access the information. The features like web-connectivity of your local database make it easy for traveling sales team or top-management to access information that would otherwise be impossible. Envision comes with features to connect to your existing database and also with freedom to migrate to any other database in future.
Configuration
The C.I module lies at the heart of application. C.I takes care of features that define the very architecture of Envision. Envision has been designed such that there is a clear boundary between modules based on functionality, however, allowing a seamless data flow. This is accomplished by a database architecture that keeps the core organizational data under the control of a single module – C.I. Apart from database, C.I addresses licensing and security issues. Licensing control is achieved through C.I module. When an organization decides to implement Envision as a prerequisite it has to purchase at least one license of C.I. Since all licenses are floating, single license of C.I allows database creation and configuration facility to a single user at a time. Additionally, this license also takes care of license control for as many as required licenses of other modules. However, if multiple users simultaneously want to use administrative features of C.I, those many C.I licenses need to be present. C.I takes care of security issues too. Entire gamut of data security to user level access rights is handled by Envision. User access rights differentiate the users from a specific module user to the administrative user for the entire application or just for the concerned module. The following is the summary of C.I database structure, data entry, and administrative utilities
  • Item Type Master
  • Item Master
  • BOM
  • Employee Master
  • Customer Master
  • Contact Person Master
  • Shipper Master
  • Machine Shop / Machines Master
  • Supplier Master
  • Access Rights
Item type master is a unique feature that allows creation of literally any type of items – starting from raw material types to semi finished and finished goods types. It also takes care of item specification units. The user also specifies the unit on which price is based. With C.I rightly configured, Envision gets all set to be implemented in the respective functional areas.
Sales
The Sales cycle is covered by following a tightly integrated dataflow scheme that runs through Enquiry-Offer-Sales Order-Dispatch-Payment sequence. Around this sequence is the interconnected sales data flow structured such that all sales functions are covered, and, you still get the flexibility to configure the software to suit to your organization specific needs. The features like yearly sales orders versus weekly or monthly delivery schedules handling, enquiry handling, offer preparation w.r.t. available product design / specifications and customer needs, etc. make the software highly user friendly.

The work center identification and allocation is very intuitive to handle and the software maps the routing plans on the work centers once properly configured. The shop floor control feature enables the following:
  • Priority assignment to each shop order

Quality
A manufacturing company’s quality department has a variety of functions to perform including testing designs for reliability, gathering performance data, resolving in-field quality problems, implementing quality program in the organization, designing and supervising quality control systems and inspection procedures, and carrying out the inspection activities.

A quality check can be applied at any stage of the production process and the software once configured, ensures that the checks are implemented and actions taken. The software can easily talk with the measurement systems and data acquisition process can be automated. In the absence of automatic data acquisition systems, manual entries are allowed and the software enables quality plan implementation in a smooth manner. Availability of features like sampling plan design, OC curves, p-charts, mean and range charts, capability index, loss function, etc. allow quality engineers to handle day to day quality jobs within the ambit of Envision rather than moving to a stand alone SQC software.
HRD
The HRD module goes about handling people as a resource that can be put to efficient use as well as that can be managed in a cordial manner.

Organizations spend huge funds in training people and desire output from those investments. With a very unique training sub-module, HRD handles training process very exhaustively.
