What is closed-loop quality? Why is it important?
Closed-loop quality is the practice of improving product quality through cross-domain collaboration enabled by connected PLM tools. It ensures all stakeholders work from the same information, leverage the same workflows and automation, and contribute to the overall quality of their products at each stage of the product lifecycle.
Use PLM to optimize your product quality processes
As a leader of your company, you need to close the loop on product quality while meeting growing compliance requirements. How do you focus on continuous product improvement when burdened with decentralized or manual systems and globally distributed teams?
With PLM, you will introduce digital traceability and data governance into your product development processes. The result? You will improve quality benchmarks and increase customer satisfaction while inspiring greater product innovation.
Improve product quality with PLM
By integrating PLM into your quality initiatives, you will gain direct visibility to traceable product information throughout every step of the lifecycle. The benefits? Addressing customer complaints and non-conformances immediately with corrective and preventative actions.
Here are a few metrics on how to achieve this with PLM:
Drive better compliance
Reduce the compliance cycle time on document gap analysis.
Optimize quality processes
Reduce the number of corrective and preventative actions (CAPAs) to speed up quality checks.
Reduce poor quality costs
Drive down costs with better quality products.
PLM capabilities for quality
For manufacturers embarking on a digital transformation, PLM provides a solid foundation for the smart, connected enterprise by enabling a digital thread of information.
