Modus-O

What Modus-O is

Modus-O is calibration and metrology management software for field work and calibration labs. It follows assets from acquisition through retirement and destruction, records maintenance, and supports work orders for one or multiple assets. Orders can be assigned to several team members, with line items created automatically for assets and related procedures. During calibration, the system calculates combined uncertainty using base specifications and each asset’s repeatability and reproducibility data; expanded uncertainty updates as calibration proceeds. It also generates customizable calibration certificates for accredited assets conforming to NIST, ISO 17025, and ANSI Z540 standards.

Clients can use a portal to view assets, make limited information updates, and request service, staging a pending work order for dispatch. Procedure and qualifications management, plus built-in auditing, assist with compliance involving ISO, FDA, GxP, HAACP, and FAA. An API and pre-built ERP interfaces sync accounts, contacts, and assets. Mobile users access customer and service data in a browser without an app, including offline. Its knowledge base supports customizable templates and sharing photos, documents, and video, including on mobile devices. Modus-O offers a 14-day fully functional trial; the company says applicants will be contacted within two business days.
