Aptean Industrial Manufacturing ERP, WorkWise Edition - Production Quality Management

The Impact of Hidden Quality Costs

Production Quality costs have been estimated to run at 20-50% of total sales for the average manufacturing company. Since many of these costs are hidden from the eyes of normal business reporting systems, many companies have no idea of their magnitude. To tackle these costs head-on, companies need to implement inexpensive production quality tools that can proactively identify these costs, actively correct these problems, and allow implementation of the controls to prevent them in the future.

Quality Management is a Complete System for:

• Quality Activity Tracking. Tracking all your quality activities (plan, prioritize, assess, measure, improve).

• Early Detection. Identifying quality management problems early.

• Customer Order Correction. Managing the speedy process of correcting those problems.

• User Training Management. Managing all of your training needs to keep people skills effective.

• Managing for Accuracy. Managing your tools and gages for up-to-date accuracy.

• Price Decreases. Decreasing production quality costs.

Technology

The uniPoint Suite was developed using Visual Studio .NET. The reports are written in Crystal, allowing users to easily modify and create new Quality reports.

Compliance

We bridge a multitude of quality standards, such as ISO 9001, ISO 13485, ISO/TS16949, AS9100 and FDA 21 CFR Part 11 &Part 820 Compliance.

Visibility and Tracking

You can send electronic NC/CPA documents and To-Do notification using e-mail. Recipients can then add their input and forward the quality record to its next stage. Each user can be setup with different access rights per module: No Access, Read Only, Edit or Full Rights.

Continual Improvement

You can evolve to an ERP “paperless quality system” where all documents can be shared, viewed or e-mailed. Everyone with security access can view relevant documents from their own workstation to stay informed of the status of each quality record.
