Experience of Practical Application of the Automated Information System «Document Management of Scientific and Technical Product Deliveries»

The production of scientific and technical products is one of the most promising areas in terms of implementation of automation systems. The information system «Document management of scientific and technical product deliveries» is a set of unique resources that provides each of the participants with the opportunity to operate a single database of electronic documents and data in accordance with their respective access rights. The aim of the study was to assess the experience of practical application of the automated information system «Document management of scientific and technical product deliveries» and its role in the optimisation of the organisation’s activities. The article discusses the main results of the information system application for data storage and data management enabling the marketing of scientific and technical products. The paper provides a general assessment of how the software product helps meet the requirements for monitoring the production timeframe, automate the drafting and approval of work-related and financial documentation. It describes the process of electronic document exchange using the capabilities of CALS/PLM technologies. The paper illustrates the need to use the automated document flow for production and marketing of samples of pathogenic microorganism strains, certified reference standards for commercial enterprises, non-periodical publications. It outlines the prospects for further optimisation of channels of communication with external customers, and electronic exchange of documents. The benefits from the use of this system help reduce the time spent by managers and employees on the compilation of packages of documents and on the preparation of applications — by automating routine manipulations in processing incoming information and documents received as annexes to applications and requests. This information system was analysed to illustrate the benefits of digital technologies.
