Tagging Components in the Test Complex Area

Why tag components differently? - Various methods are in place to tag different components, but not every component is tracked; - Variance in method can make it difficult to obtain component information and identify discrepancies; -Time and resources are spent on component localization and verification. Previous work of RA10 interns: - Researching more efficient asset tracking methods; - Investigating cost effective ways to localize components; - Past interns identified using QR (Quick Response) codes as a potential solution. Link QR codes to Windchill (PLM - Product Lifecycle Management system) DDMS (Design and Data Management System) after QR code is printed/etched and physically tagging it as quickly as possible
