Quality Management
Product quality is crucial. QAD sets up controls in the material flow to evaluate quality allowing you to take corrective and preventive measures.
- Do you need batch traceability? Set the items to be batched and QAD will take care of the rest
- Upon material receipt, QAD recognises whether the quality is guaranteed by the supplier or whether input checks needs to be performed. It generates the quality order, including the tests required and confirms its evaluation after the results are entered
- In production, QAD ensures the inter-operation checks exactly as defined and blocks any NOK pieces
- Do you need to be completely certain about the quality of the products shipped? Set up finished product checks
- Do you wish to fully automate quality management, including the documentation and corrective actions? Implement QAD QMS
