The KinnosaONE Solution. Engineering Document
Management, powered by
KinnosaONE products, brings a comprehensive approach to content management.
The
KinnosaONE product family, which consists of Kinnosa and Korrigo, provides a
traceable, transparent and distributed tools that are built using open standards and
an open data repository. First Trace has developed add-ins so popular CAD
applications such as AutoCAD, Autodesk Inventor, SolidWorks and Microstation have
common access to proprietary data vaults like PDMWorks and Autodesk Vault. Data
stored in other enterprise systems such as Lotus, FileNet and Sharepoint are
accessible through
KinnosaONE's enterprise compatible product:
Kinnosa.
KinnosaONE products also provide essential document management capabilities such as metadata
management, version control, user and workgroup management, and distributed access to data
across multiple locations.
KinnosaONE products are easy to install and deploy, requiring little
setup time. Our Engineering Document Management solutions are integrated into the interface of the
CAD tools and other applications, like Microsoft Office Suite, so that users do not need to learn
or even open another application to manage their documents.
Being the next evolution of document management,
Korrigo and
Kinnosa are able to provide
users with increased security by creating dynamic rules for each asset or asset class
in order to control accessibility and user rights. These two highly robust products also
allow businesses to effortlessly manage processes and personal tasks, as well as
automate control and management of digital assets such as documents, images, drawings,
blueprints and more.
Why Is It Important? Companies in
every industry are realizing the ability to efficiently and reliably manage their internal
information has a direct effect on their bottom line. Corporate decisions based on
unreliable or incorrect information waste time, resources and can lead to disastrous
consequences.
Incorporating an open, standards-based Engineering Document Management solution into
your overall IT and content management strategies is important to your business because you cannot
afford to get locked into one application indefinitely.
KinnosaONE products are built
on a services-oriented architecture (SOA) improving application interoperability and eliminating
redundant manual tasks. For example,
KinnosaONE add-ins for CAD applications allow designers to
directly access repository content from the CAD environment. Users are not required to learn
a new content management application which speeds user acceptance, improves work efficiency,
eliminates the need for costly user training and increases their adoption of the new
document management software.
Quite frequently, non-engineers (both internal and external to the organization) need
to access engineering data and documents. The seamless interface with
KinnosaONE products and
other applications also increases the ROI to the organization because now non-engineers
can take advantage of the document management solution, without having to learn new software. This level
of transparency and automation streamlines document management on the backend, so users
do not have to change the way they work.
What Is The Value To Your Business? Engineering
Document Management, powered by
KinnosaONE products, provides value in a number of ways. The time savings
alone can be astronomical as
KinnosaONE products operate from a "virtual repository" rather
than a centralized repository. Users can search a distributed network without having to contact other
departments or locations. The data will appear to be stored locally, making document searches much faster.
KinnosaONE also adds value to the entire organization since non-engineers can access data in CAD
applications´ data vaults without having to use the CAD tool to access it. Engineers can spend their
time designing documents rather than assisting other personnel and outside vendors locate data.
The ultimate goal of
KinnosaONE is simplification.
KinnosaONE products generate ROI by
simplifying daily business processes, making them more manageable and profitable for your enterprise.
