What are Modules and Solvers?
At AlisQI, we don’t just deliver software—we solve problems!
AlisQI is structured around modules and solvers to help you manage quality, compliance, and operational processes in a clear, flexible and scalable way.
Together, they determine:
- What functionality is available
- How features are organized
- How your system adapts to your needs
What is a Module?
A module is a group of related solvers that belong to the same functional area.
Think of a module as a category or domain of functionality.
It helps organize the system into logical areas like:
- Quality Control (QC)
- Documentation (DM)
- Continuous Improvement (CI)
- Environment, Health and Safety (EHS)
- Supplier Quality (SQ)
What is a Solver?
A solver is a licensed, focused feature that enables specific functionality in the system to address a particular operational or quality challenge.
Think of a solver as a targeted solution to a specific problem — like unstable processes, recurring deviations, or compliance tracking.
Each solver:
- Solves one clear type of problem
- Enables specific features, UI (user interface) elements, and/or system behavior
- Can be turned on or off depending on your license
- Works together with other solvers to support broader workflows
When a solver is:
- Enabled → the related features and automations (e.g. alerts, emails) are active
- Disabled→ the features stop working, but your data remains saved in the background and is restored when re-enabled.
Key Difference
- A solver controls access to specific features
- A module organizes solvers into a functional domain
How Solvers and Modules Work Together
- Solvers are contained within modules
- Multiple solvers can be combined to support end-to-end workflows
- Some solvers may depend on others to function correctly
- Some features can be enabled by multiple solvers across modules
- Some system functions are gated without the appropriate Solver
This design allows the system to be:
-
- Flexible → only enable what you need
- Scalable → add capabilities over time
- Reliable → ensure dependencies and data consistency
Key Takeaway
Modules organize functionality. Solvers activate it.
Together, they give you control over how the system supports your quality and operational processes.
