Abstract

AbstractRevalidation is a matter of concern in the manufacturing environment of an organization that manufactures components for aviation, space, oil and gas or defence requirements. As prescribed by Aerospace Standard, AS9100 Revision D, all the components that were checked using out-of-tolerance instruments or gauges have to be rechecked with a new gauge that is within the tolerance limits. This paper presents the significance of implementing an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system in the tool cribs of manufacturing units. The importance of this study lies in the fact that the revalidation process is time-consuming and involves high costs. Hence, it is suggested to carry out the issuance of instruments or tools through an ERP system. In this scheme, the route orders are bar-coded, and the tool is issued on the basis of job order and operation. During the revalidation process, the data of components to be recertified is fetched directly from the ERP system.KeywordsEnterprise resource planning (ERP)Manufacturing environmentRevalidationTolerance
