Abstract

Software packages with targeted calibration and maintenance functionality have long been incorporated to track calibration, maintenance and asset management for IM&TE in regulated environments with an ever-increasing list of functionality to meet specific needs of the end-user group. As corporations move towards implementations of major ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) software applications, resident calibration functionality ´modules’ are increasingly mandated to metrology organizations, often without user acceptance, with corporate focus on efficiency of implementing a single solution at the cost functionality that falls short of specific metrology user requirements. API (Application Programming Interface, AKA, Integration) is a viable option to leverage the desired functionality between two or more systems’ data. Integration is a user-defined interaction (to the field-level) so that key information can be ´pushed’ or ´pulled’ to and from target and source software packages. This paper discusses the strategy of justifying and incorporating integration between an ERP (or other software systems) and desired CMMS software (Calibration/Maintenance Management System), its architecture overview and common validation plans to satisfy corporate quality and IT organizations in order to maximize compliance and efficiency in the metrology department
