Case Study: a major European aerospace manufacturer streamlines engine data management with IDBS E-WorkBook

a major european aerospace manufacturer delivers E-WorkBook with IDBS: 50% off-the-shelf implementation

A major European aerospace manufacturer was facing challenges with managing paper records and version control for its algorithm development process, using a legacy Lotus Notes system. The company's Engine Management Group needed a platform to handle Matlab code modules, improve validation processes, and ensure data security. They partnered with IDBS to implement its E-WorkBook platform to address these electronic data management needs.

IDBS configured E-WorkBook to automate data links with Matlab, creating a solution that was half off-the-shelf and half custom-designed. The implementation provided a single repository for all modules and documentation, enabling effective version control and streamlined reporting. This resulted in time savings, eliminated errors, and gave users confidence in data traceability. The success in R&D led the customer to expand the use of IDBS's E-WorkBook to its Quality, Testing, and Maintenance operations.
