Time-saving software

APT supplies high precision turned parts and components from 1mm to 42mm diameter, as well as intricate prismatic parts in batches of up to one million. Its client base covers many industries  with customers taking advantage of APT’s AS EN 9100 and ISO 9001 accreditations. With so many manufacturing permutations, APT had recognised the need to improve its administration and PSL Datatrack provided a solution.

Nick Baller, operations director at APT, comments:“No longer do we have to switch painstakingly between each of our previous standalone reporting and monitoring systems."

Working closely with PSL Datatrack to ensure that the software is fully tailored to meet on-going, changing requirements, APT has also been a very active contributor to PSL's customer 'wish list' programme. This ensures that the system is regularly updated and configured from the user's viewpoint and not just from the developer's own ideas for improvement.

PSL Datatrack has proven to be an easy to use with the interlinked modules delivering significant time-savings, whilst the benefits of traceability are making auditing quick and easy. As a result, the company is now looking at further investment in PSL Datatrack Time & Attendance and Assemblies modules as well as Status Boards to take efficiency to even higher levels by automatically distributing information and instructions to any department.

APT feels that the support it gets from PSL Datatrack is first rate with the provision of concise, well written Help Files, effective telephone support and if a query cannot be solved immediately, then a prompt call back is always provided. “PSL Datatrack software is the industry standard and will be at the heart of everything we do as we move into our 61^st year of operation and beyond,” concludes Baller.
