Implementation, Training and Support
Implementation Strategies
Implementation of ToolView is fast and requires no searching or manual input by the tool owner. The ToolView team assists clients with implementation and training. We recommend designating a "champion" to help coordinate the project.
ToolView Clients can implement across the entire organization simultaneously or take a more ramped-up approach.
Ramped-up implementation options
Single site implementation
Country of origin method
Preferred suppliers first method
Commodity method (e.g. stampings, moldings, etc.)

Training Options
Most training can be accomplished with online training. Live meeting and on-site support is available.
Help files
Videos
Web meetings
On-site training (optional and depending on current health restrictions)
Support
Three levels of support are available during and after implementation. In-plant assistance is also available at professional service rates. Help can be obtained by:
