With the POOL4TOOL project portal out of the SRM Suite, teams of different companies located in different places can work closely together on the same project. They can share centrally located data like project plans, contract specifications, other specifications, blueprints, CAD drawings and APQPs.
An outstanding feature of the POOL4TOOL SRM Suite is that project plans and related documents do not have to be transferred between the business partners. Instead, the various companies and authorized personnel can access the data based on variably formulated access restrictions. This procedure ensures that the required data is up to date.
Because POOL4TOOL is not just a client system, but an independent working communication environment, suppliers can report their activities, manage their own projects and connect their projects with those of their clients. At the same time, the client has permanent access to the latest information — without additional effort by the supplier.
But POOL4TOOL does even more: through the SRM module, you can publish agreements, documents, meeting minutes, action points, etc., informing co-workers without the need for sending group e-mails.

With POOL4TOOL, large amounts of data can be exchanged through OFTP. This process is especially crucial for those suppliers who do not own their own OFTP account but must be integrated quickly into the development process.
