What you are getting
We have been distributing Efficient QMS™ since 2004. In that time, it has never failed to achieve the goal for a single Customer – at a fraction of the cost of other online QMS services.
In the spirit of giving back to the industry, Licensed “Lite” Efficient QMS™ is complementary for any business in the United States that is operating or implementing a quality management system. Click Add to Cart above to begin a $0.00 transaction and download your copy.
In one hand you will have a free licensed copy of Efficient QMS™. In the other hand, after a short time, you will have an automated version of your Company’s quality management system. Your Customers and Registrars will notice.
Efficient QMS™ was conceived by Frank Elias at Eagle-Picher Technologies during the NASA supplier assessment initiative and achieved AS9100 Top 10 Best Practice designation in 2007. Read the full heritage record.
“We went through our Nadcap audit for AQS and NDT/UT and we received no NCR’s. The Auditor was very complimentary of our system, which was in no small part because of eQMS.” — Arcadia Aerospace Industries — Nadcap AQS and NDT/UT
Zero to a running quality management system – at no cost
Here is something most visitors do not realize: it is possible to go from nothing to a fully populated, browser-based quality management system without spending a dollar on software or documents.
Free MS Office QMS document kits for ISO 9001 and AS9100 are available from various online QMS service providers in the United States – complete document sets including quality manuals, procedures, work instructions, and forms. Your team can open any of those documents, copy the text, and paste it directly into Efficient QMS™ Process Maker. Recreate any existing form in Form Maker. The work you do once automates your document control for all time.
The complete path – zero cost, start to finish:
- Locate free ISO 9001 or AS9100 MS Office QMS documents from any online QMS service provider in the United States
- Download free licensed Efficient QMS™ from this page
- Contact us – we install eQMS on your hosting account at no charge, or help you set one up while you are on the phone with us

Frank will support every step of that process by phone and email at no charge, since 2007, with no expiration.
The work you do once automates your document control system for all time.

How to receive your permanent license
After completing your $0.00 download, your copy of eQMS includes a temporary license. To receive your permanent license at no charge, simply contact us by email at contact ~at~ quality-control-plan . com with one of the following:
- Your Company’s domain name or private server IP address so we can prepare your permanent license, plus a redacted copy of any receipt for MS Office QMS documents purchased from any online QMS service provider in the United States – including our own ISO 9001 or AS9100 bare-minimum kits, or
- A copy of any free quality manual or handbook your Company downloaded from an online QMS service provider in the United States.
That is all that is required. We will send your permanent license promptly. If you already purchased one of our ISO 9001 or AS9100 template kits, we will also recreate many of your existing policies, procedures, work instructions, and forms inside your copy of eQMS – at no charge.
What to know before you download
- eQMS is licensed software and requires a license to operate. Your temporary license is included with your download. Your permanent license is provided at no charge after you contact us. License terms and conditions.
- Lite eQMS does not include pre-populated documents. Use Process Maker to recreate your existing procedures and work instructions by copying and pasting plain text. Use Form Maker to recreate your existing forms. The work you do once automates your document control for all time.
- eQMS runs on your webhost, not on your computer. It uses a MySQLi database to store all procedures and records. Your Company owns that data and can export it at any time. eQMS is not a subscription service and is not stored in someone else’s cloud.
- No project is too small or large. If you need hands-on support inside your copy of eQMS, we provide it by phone and email at no charge.
No website or hosting account? No problem.
While you are on the phone with us, we will help you purchase a domain name and a low-cost Linux hosting account on SiteGround – at no charge to you. Or, you can authorize us to do it for you and reimburse us for the hosting expense afterward. We do not earn a commission on any hosting account you purchase.
After the account is set up, we will install eQMS and have it running in 5 to 10 minutes. We will also create a simple homepage if needed.
Compatible hosting requires: Linux or Nginx – PHP 8.1 or higher – MySQLi – ionCube Loader 12 to 15 – Zend Engine.
SiteGround GoGeek provides all of these by default and is our recommended platform.
GoDaddy hosting requires Frank’s no-charge configuration attention.
You can also create your own private webhost server using FreeBSD, PHP, MySQLi, ionCube Loader, and Zend Engine.

A note on giving back
JnF Specialties is not the only organization giving back to the quality management industry. The Oxebridge Quality Resources free MS Office QMS kits for ISO 9001:2015 and AS9100D are a generous contribution to the industry. If your Company already uses MS Office QMS documents from any source – including Oxebridge – those documents qualify you for a free permanent license for Efficient QMS™.
