ETQ, part of Hexagon, released the ETQ Reliance NXG quality management system (QMS), which includes real-time document collaboration using Microsoft 365, expanded data collection capabilities and user interface features for a better user experience.
"Our customers are our greatest resource for continuous innovation and product inspiration, and this latest version of ETQ Reliance NXG is no exception," says Jamie Fernandes, chief product officer, ETQ. "Listening closely to them, we've expanded the capabilities of our award-winning cloud-native QMS to make it more configurable, scalable and collaborative. This new release further demonstrates why so many companies choose ETQ to reduce their cost of quality and drive continuous improvement across their manufacturing ecosystem."
Key takeaways:
- The most recent version of ETQ Reliance NXG allows users to create, edit and collaborate in real-time on Microsoft 365 Word documents through the ETQ Reliance interface. This capability is ideal for quality teams that require multiple co-editors during any phase of a document's lifecycle.
- A new feature called Depositor User Access makes capturing data for complaints handling, quality events, safety reporting and other use cases easy and accessible. It offers a secure way to collect form submissions from external "depositors" such as suppliers, customers, shop floor workers and other stakeholders without needing authentication or access to the ETQ Reliance platform.
- ETQ extends localization and non-English language support capability to its ETQ Mobile app.
