Quality Assurance add-on to manage your business production
In the manufacturing space, guaranteeing a consistent and quality product is a must. Not only is registering and controlling your production quality an industry requirement, it’s also an opportunity to build customer trust and minimize the risk of costly defects. Manufacturing businesses should always look to make sure that the tools and mechanisms they us for Quality Control include many important processes such as inspection, control, guarantee, management and delivery of products and services. One way to ensure that all those steps are followed is by producing Certificates of Quality.
Businesses must carry out different validation processes for density, color, humidity, and many other characteristics to ensure the quality of the products they manufacture and guarantee that quality by generating certificates.
For example, a food production company undergoes a quality validation process every time the product is delivered to the end customer. This is necessary to meet the requirements of its clients. The company has to make sure that the product shipped has the characteristics that the buyer requested and be able to send the product with a Certificate of Quality that is issued by their SAP ByDesign system.
Some of the challenges are:
Identify which orders still do not have their certificate
Retain a record of each order with its certificate
Issue different types of Certificates of Quality
To meet this business requirement, the Quality Assurance add-on allows the generation of Certificates of Quality of production based on samples of the products through a process control technique.
