Story
Inside Afya, change control used to depend on whoever still had the latest file. That pattern is common in information technology groups working out of the United States. Engineering and quality needed a system that would still make sense after the original project team moved on.
Afya uses Codebeamer from PTC as the working layer for product lifecycle data. PTC provides product lifecycle management, CAD, and industrial IoT software used by manufacturers to design and service products. The practical change is simple: change control has a home, and reviews happen there instead of in a forwarded thread.
Nothing in this writeup invents a savings number. What Afya gets from PTC is a durable place to run change control and a way for engineering and quality to see the same product lifecycle data at the same time.
