Catch defects early, cut returns and rework cost.
Control quality from input to output — in-line inspection, CAPA and full traceability.
Defects caught late at the end of the line or at the customer, missing root-cause analysis, scattered quality records — rework cost and reputation both suffer.
Inspection points sit inside the line instead of piling up at the end, so an out-of-spec lot is held at the very operation that caught it. Every failure opens a CAPA that closes only once its effectiveness is confirmed, and the records stay attached to the lot for the day a customer asks.
Each capability resolves an operating constraint.
Standardized inspection
How: IQC/IPQC/OQC plans with clear criteria and frequency.
Instant recording
How: Digital inspection sheets, pass/fail judgment on the spot.
Resolve for good
How: Closed-loop CAPA: corrective & preventive actions.
Audit-ready
How: Certificate records and applied standards centralized.
Reliable measurement
How: Gauge management and calibration schedule.
Continuous improvement
How: Defect-rate, Pareto and quality-trend analysis.
Standards & inspection
Quality plans
How: Inspection points, specifications and frequency per operation and item group.
Incoming, in-process and final
How: Three checkpoints with their own forms; results attach to the lot.
Gauge calibration
How: Calibration schedules, certificates, and a block on out-of-date instruments.
Non-conformance handling
NCR capture
How: Defective stock is quarantined and tagged with lot and finder on the spot.
CAPA with a lifecycle
How: Root cause, corrective action, an owner and a due date.
Effectiveness verification
How: A CAPA closes only with evidence the defect did not return.
Compliance & improvement
Quality records by lot
How: Produce the full record pack when a customer or auditor asks.
Internal and supplier audits
How: Checklists, findings, actions and follow-through to closure.
Cost of quality
How: Scrap, rework and warranty split out, so quality has a price tag.

The full cycle: Inspection plan → Analyze & improve.
- Detection source & severity
- Related batch / production order
- Corrective action (CAPA)
An NCR stops a defect from disappearing into an email thread: it is attached to the batch that caused it, and it can only close once the corrective action has an owner and evidence.
Let AI tie a complaint back to the batch, the machine and the shift that produced it.
Auto defect detection from inspection data & images.
Root-cause analysis to fix issues at the source.
Early deviation alerts before thresholds are breached.
Without an agent the work does not disappear — it moves onto a person.
It only starts when somebody remembers it and finds the time to sit down with it.
The business event starts it, not somebody's memory.
When a defect report is logged
To learn where things stand you ask a colleague to check, then to export a report.
Ask in your own words; the answer comes off the numbers already in the system.
“This lot has a lot of defects — where is it coming from?”
Your strongest people spend the day on the same reconciliation as last week.
The repetitive half runs inside the permissions you granted; the decisions still stop with you.

Agents in this module
They sit on the very data layer above — and run inside the caller’s permissions.
Data flows straight to the other modules — no re-entry.
Every transaction flows straight to connected modules on one data layer — no re-entry, no silos.
R&D & new-product development — prototypes and testing run through QMS.
Formulas, specs and prototype testing sit inside the Idea-to-Launch flow alongside PM/PPM, PDM/ECO and Finance.
Frequently asked questions.
Does it support IQC/IPQC/OQC?+
Yes. Full inspection plans and sheets for inbound, in-process and outbound.
Is CAPA managed closed-loop?+
A CAPA closes only when the corrective and preventive actions are done and their effectiveness is confirmed — every step is logged.
Is it tied to manufacturing and maintenance?+
Inspection results flow straight into MES and EAM: a failed lot is blocked on the line, and a suspect machine goes onto a work order.
Is it audit/certification ready?+
Quality records are held centrally by lot, by equipment and by applicable standard, so an audit becomes a matter of extracting them.
