Efficient and well-organized manufacturing documents are essential to success in production. The problem is familiar: every year, the time comes to prepare your tax returns. Do you still do it yourself, or have you decided to hire a tax consultant? These days, some employees find the preparation of manufacturing documentation at work similar to doing one’s tax returns. Manufacturing instructions have often been changed, adapted and/or bloated over many years. They contain revisions from audits, are subject to specific and local wishes from plant managers or compliance officers, contain references to change documents or are linked by cross-references. There must be a better way to do this.
