The problem

When the rule is only in someone's head.

Every product has hundreds of rules: minimum dimensions, incompatibilities, components. If they live in an Excel file or in someone's head, every revision is a risk.

  • A rule changes and the person drawing does not know
  • The same rule sits in three documents, in three versions
  • The configurator uses a value, but nobody remembers why
  • Newcomers learn by asking colleagues

What it does

An archive that actually gets consulted.

Every rule has a form, a history and a place to find it. And it's linked to the files where you use it.

01

Complete rules

Statement, reason, images, category, release and use (drawing, bill of materials, feasibility). Plus tags and references.

02

Search that finds

AND, OR, NOT and filters by product, category, release and status. Results appear as you type.

03

No duplicates

Before saving, Nexum looks for similar rules with an AI that runs on your PC. Nothing leaves the company.

04

Linked to the configurator

A rule can point to cells in the configurator's Excel files. If the file changes, Nexum tells you.

05

Every version, every release

Version history with comparison, product releases, several users in sync, with conflict handling.

06

Manuals in Word

Export by release or by department, with your styles and images already numbered.

Who does what

Three roles, clear permissions.

Everyone logs in with their own user and sees only what they need.

Read

Those who apply the rules

Searches and reads rules, images and references.

Edit

Those who write them

Creates and updates rules, images and links to Excel files. Exports the manuals.

Admin

Those who govern them

Manages users, releases, export styles and sync.

With DRIV

The right rule, when it is needed.

Open a service ticket in DRIV and the “Related knowledge” panel suggests the rules closest to the problem. When you close it, you note which ones you used: every job keeps its technical history.

Discover DRIV
  • Rule suggestions based on the ticket text
  • History of the rules applied per job
  • Also works on its own, without DRIV

Where do your rules start from?

Word, Excel, notes: we'll show you how they become rules in Nexum.
