Aerospace Manufacturer Selects Ingenuus to Automate Product Data and Optimize Processes
Ingenuus Software Inc . announced that Teledyne Controls, a division of Teledyne Technologies Inc. has selected Ingenuus Process Orchestration Software to automate their engineering and product data and to optimize their business processes.
Teledyne Controls, located in Los Angeles, California, is an industry leader designing and manufacturing avionics and ground-related electronic systems for commercial air transport, business and regional aviation, government and defense applications. Controls will begin using Ingenuus to manage engineering change orders related to product data. Once product data is under control, Ingenuus will be used to automate other horizontal processes to improve quality and efficiency.
"Teledyne Controls is focused on providing products and services that improve safety and efficiency for the aviation community," says Ingenuus CEO Christopher Williams. "Using Ingenuus, they will be able to improve the efficiency of their engineering data management with significant contribution to the bottom line." Preliminary estimates show a $500,000 annual savings using the Ingenuus software.
"With our software, Controls will be able to control process activities and get visibility into process status," explains Williams. Being able to see what is happening in real time, while also being alerted automatically by the system when something is late, means being more proactive rather than reactive. In many cases, an early task that becomes late, such as a part on backorder, has a trickle down effect that can be eliminated or reduced if the problem is seen quickly enough. "The sooner you know something is wrong, the quicker it can be fixed," says Williams. "And that saves time and money."
