Hello everyone,

My name is Winser, and I am a software developer from the Dominican Republic. Alongside my professional work, I've been passionate about martial arts for nearly 20 years. As a dedicated Pentana user, I'm excited to join this community and learn as much as possible about Ideagen solutions.

Looking forward to connecting with you all!

Great to see you @wespinal!

Welcome to Ideagen Community. We’re continually working hard to make more and more of our forums available for our customers. We don’t have any forums open just yet for our Internal Audit / Risk solutions (previously known as Pentana), but we will make sure to prioritise this going forward.

Thanks, Mr. Brown! That would be great! Despite the current lack of such a forum, I'm thrilled to learn more about the new direction Ideagen is taking in Internal Audit/Risk solutions.

Hello there!

I am Krista Ahrens, a Customer Success Manager at Ideagen. I currently have the pleasure of supporting customers who use our collaboration products. Whether you’re a customer, or a colleague feel free to reach out! If I’m not the right person to assist, I’ll help you connect with someone who can.

I have hands-on experience with a few of Ideagen products, including: 

• Huddle

I’m here to support however I can!

When I’m not working, I’m a wife, a mom to a busy one-year-old, and a big fan of recreational sports. I love staying active with volleyball, softball, climbing, and bowling - and I keep up with exercise to balance it all and keep up with my little one! 

Looking forward to connecting with everyone!

Hello everyone,

My name is Chris Smith w/Plexus in Neenah Wisconsin (about 20min South of Green Bay).  Plexus is a Global contract manufacturer of Electronic Circuit Assemblies as well as Higher Level Assembly Builds.  I have been in this industry for 33yrs and am currently a Digital Systems Engineer for the last 7yrs.  But most of my career as a Process Engineer in manufacturing.

We currently use Ideagen software as our First Article Inspection solution, particularly for our Aerospace customers.

Hoping this new community provides guidance and solutions for issues and questions as they arise from not not Ideagen.  But possibly other CM’s within our industry using this software as well.

Regards,

C.Smith

Hello, 

I’m in Jacksonville, Florida and have used Pentana Audit for about four years now.

I’m looking forward to learning more about users' experiences with the new Web based Internal Audit application.  

Hello to everyone. I am the internal auditor for First Community Bank in south Texas. I have been using the Pentana Audit MK solution for about three years now. I look forward to learning more about how others use this very powerful tool and sharing my experience. 

Hi All,

Great to see a general community thread going in here.

I’m Adam and I work as a Standards & Compliance Manager for one of the larger UK train operating companies. I am primarly responsible for ISO 9001 compliance (including a small team of auditors and compliance specialists) but I am also supporting ISO 55001 and ISO 45001 across the business by guiding and implementing best practice in management systems. Additionally, I am now the primary admin for Q-Pulse for all depts across the organisation (as well as a few other smaller software packages). 

I am hoping to both get support out of and also provide support into the Ideagen Community … you are never to old to learn and there are always areas that can be improved and processes that can be made more efficient - even after 20+ years QMS experience!

I’m looking forward to sharing and learning in equal measure via this forum.

Hello,

We would be interested in connecting with other organisations (ideally policing sector organisations, although that’s not critical)  who are using the Q Pulse training and people modules and have a matrix management style structure. It would be helpful if these organisations were using the training module to measure both initial and ongoing competence.  

Many thanks

Hi everyone,

Hi all, 

I've been using Visual Fair software since 2009, when we first started using it, we recommended certain features that were implemented during updates. Its good to know the developers actually listen. 

I've since worked for 2 companies since here and implemented Visual Fair.

Some of the staff  know me now due to my passion for the software.  I've even got some of my customers past and present purchasing the software and enjoying the benefits it brings in the reduction of inspection errors / cert pack errors etc. Some of them being big in the Nuclear and Oil & Gas industry but originally Medical Devices. 

The companies that Ive dealt with have found one of the main benefits is the ease of identifying non-conformances in the dimensional reports, along with reduction in full cert pack documentation errors identified by customers on receipt.  The admin creating the final cert pack do not need to understand engineering drawings etc through using this software, if somethings red or missing they can knock it back to the right department 

Im the QA Manager for the parent company that has several sub companies, but having started on the shopfloor I also love the benefit when inspecting of being able to zoom in on the drawing and picking the sizes that use the same measurement equipment easily etc.
