Key Challanges
-
Changes in customer demand - Volatility in demand from your customers drives faster cycles and increases dependency on supplier quality
-
Increasing manufacturing complexity - Complexity increases likelihood of quality issues and recalls, up front prevention is the only real solution.
-
Unstable supply chain - Issues with your suppliers’ quality and delivery causes downtime and prevents you shipping on time and in full, resulting in higher shipping costs and lower customer satisfaction.
-
Scarcity of skilled workers - Loss of your experienced workers and their knowledge drives the need to institutionalize knowledge, reduce employee effort through process efficiencies, and have visibility and management of employee training.​
Capabilities
Quality prevention
Manage your new product introduction, assess risks (FMEA) and build quality in the design phase. Institutionalize your knowledge using foundational libraries to help drive standardization, efficiency and effectiveness.
Deep supplier access
Give your suppliers direct access to documents, drawing, SCARs, audits, chargebacks and projects through a single portal for easy collaboration and self-service. Immediately communicate with suppliers with email and in-app notifications and receive real-time responses back.
Best-practice workflows
Stay current with quality standards and manage your quality issues using robust, built-in workflows for complaints, NCR, CAPA, document approvals, audits, and more. QAD stays up with the industry standards to ensure you are compliant and using recognized best practices.
Complete integration
Out-of-the-box integrations with other QAD products (SRM, ERP, PE, AS) and within QAD EQMS modules help streamline your end-to-end quality processes (an audit finding creates a non-conformance, APQP drives inspection, all changes drive training).
