Case Study: GP:50 achieves faster engineering lead times and streamlined document control with Synergis Software’s Adept

Adept Relieves the Pressure for Engineering at GP:50

GP:50, a long-established maker of custom pressure transducers (about 70% of orders are custom), struggled with 25+ years of accumulated drawings and a manual release process that left engineering bogged down and other departments accessing incorrect or outdated documents. To standardize document control and restrict access to current revisions, GP:50 selected Synergis Software’s Adept engineering document management system after researching several solutions.

Synergis Software implemented Adept (server, desktop and web clients) and completed the deployment in four days, enabling company-wide use across engineering, manufacturing, sales, purchasing and materials. Adept provided revision control, searchable assembly relationships, an ECN workflow, and an audit trail that supported GP:50’s ISO 9001:2000 audit. The result: faster access to the correct drawings, reduced lead times in engineering and sales, fewer assembly errors and rework, and streamlined change control—delivering the quicker order turnaround GP:50 sought.
