Zodiac Aerospace, Avox Systems Division, Uses CMMs to Complete ISO Certification
Avox Systems Division uses CMMs to complete certification
In March 2014, I was moved to a new position within Zodiac Aerospace at Avox Systems. Almost immediately after I started we had an ISO audit (ISO is a series of standards developed by the International Organization for Standardization). As a result of the audit, we received an ISO 14001 and ISO 18001 suspension. One of the main issues was that there was no evidence of a documented preventive maintenance system. Truth of the matter is, we had an antiquated Excel system, it was manual and there was no ability to track with it. If a paper work order got lost, it wouldn’t get done and that’s not a good system.
With airlines and government as our customer base, having this certification is a necessary part of doing business. I knew immediately that we needed a CMMS. We heard about FacilityDude, saw a demo, and we bought it. Simple as that. No one else compared when it came to ease of use. Lucky for us, we purchased in March and FacilityDude University was in April, so of course we signed up to attend. I spent most of my time in the Learning Lab and it was the most phenomenal experience I’ve had with a company. I was setting up my account and learning the basics of FacilityDude with the FacilityDudes.
