ProDoMa: The Advanced Document Management Solution by ES-Tek srl

ES-Tek srl, a renowned company in the field of quality management and corporate procedures, has developed an innovative solution for managing bureaucratic processes: ProDoMa. This tool, designed to facilitate and optimize document workflows within companies, stands out for its flexibility, efficiency, and high level of customization according to the specific needs of each client.

What is ProDoMa?

ProDoMa (Procedure Document Management) is a web-based platform created to simplify the management and completion of complex and specific documents, such as those required in PPAP (Production Part Approval Process) procedures. Although it was initially developed to meet the needs of a specific client in the automotive sector, ProDoMa was designed with a modular and versatile structure, capable of handling a wide range of corporate procedures.

Key Features

1. Centralized Management and Accessibility: ProDoMa is accessible from any internet-connected device, offering centralized management that allows users to work remotely and access documents anytime and anywhere.

2. Optimized Workflow:

   - Procedure Templates: ProDoMa allows the creation of predefined procedure templates, which include a list of necessary documents, specific properties, and associated users. These templates serve as the foundation upon which specific procedure files are built.

   - **Customized Files**: Files, created from templates, can be customized with specific documents, deadlines, users, and properties. Each document in the file has an acceptance status that can be monitored in real-time.

3. Automation and Error Reduction:

   - Documents within ProDoMa can be automatically filled using the file properties, significantly reducing the likelihood of manual errors.

   - Documents can be viewed directly within the system without the need to download files or have specific software installed.

4. Traceability and Versioning:

   - Every operation within ProDoMa is tracked and recorded in consultable logs, ensuring maximum transparency.

   - The versioning system allows tracking of all document versions, enabling the recovery of previous versions at any time.

5. Dashboard and Notifications:

   - An intuitive dashboard provides an immediate overview of the progress of procedures.

   - Users receive notifications and alerts for each assigned file or document, ensuring that deadlines and responsibilities are always under control.

6. Advanced User Management:

   - ProDoMa allows specific roles to be assigned to users, defining customized permissions for each file.

   - Integration with Active Directory facilitates the import and synchronization of users from other corporate systems.

Integrations and Future Developments

ProDoMa is already based on REST APIs, allowing integration with other corporate systems. ES-Tek is also planning future developments for ProDoMa, such as adding features for electronic signatures, CAD document management, and support for Linux servers and cloud platforms. These enhancements, some of which may be offered as optional modules, will ensure that ProDoMa remains at the forefront of document management.

Conclusion

ProDoMa represents a significant evolution in document management for companies that need to tackle complex bureaucratic and quality requirements. With its web-based architecture, flexibility, and automation capabilities, ProDoMa is an essential tool for those looking to simplify and improve their document processes. Thanks to its modular structure, it can adapt to the specific needs of any organization, making it an ideal choice for companies across various industries.
