Automotive and Industrial Machinery The Automotive Industry is the home of many Statistical Quality methods with a long tradition of utilizing product quality information with applied statistics. This industry to date has unfortunately been a foundation for a number of parallel silo systems including SPC which has traditionally been considered an independent application.  Predisys Manufacturing Analytical Suite changes this model to a horizontal platform approach where all Manufacturing Business Intelligence and Quality Statistics are built on a uniform portal called MS SharePoint utilizing centralized data warehousing.

This application model will enable the following capabilities and benefits in one uniform MS SharePoint portal platform:

• Quality information can be utilized in R&D, material sourcing etc.
• Much larger audience for the Advanced Online SPC tools
• One uniform data warehouse for all quality data sources
  • CMMs in Body Shop
  • Online Optical measurement units
  • PDA based measurements with gages
  • Assembly line quality & defect data management / reporting
  • Paint Shop and paint quality characteristics
  • Engine and Transmission test results
• Increased effectiveness of automated test and measurement systems
• Less problems with measurement variability though automated Gage R&R and MSA
• Tremendous speed of statistical analytics and reports based on multi-core computing server architecture with zero client footprint
• Much less manual quality reporting work through report automation
• Multi-location visibility to R&D, material sourcing, customers, suppliers etc.
• Corrective and Preventive Actions management on standard SharePoint platform
• Collaboration and messaging between and within different plant departments
• Manufacturing KPI dashboards generated automatically utilizing Microsoft Business Intelligence platform
• User defined report generation with no dependence on the report administrations
