Visibility Corporation Addresses Quality Issues for
Project-Based Manufacturers
According to Stephen Carson, Executive Vice-President with
Visibility Corporation, "Many project-based manufacturers
provide contract engineering and manufacturing services related
to the production of electrical components and assemblies with
multiple domestic and off-shore locations. These companies must
have a consistent track record of growth by concentrating and
effectively competing on quality, timeliness, and price. They
require a state of the art process and quality control system
that provides both the flexibility and consistency to deliver
the highest quality manufacturing services and cost effective
product delivery."
Key Quality ETO (Engineer-to-Order) Challenges:
* Rapid expansion and addition of new facilities
* Increasing variety of manufactured products
* Requirement to achieve and sustain for full ISO 9000 quality
system certification
* Need to reconcile disparate paper and electronic systems and
tools used to plan, measure and manage quality control
* Need to reduce costs and maintain or improve product quality
By defining a specific solution with well defined integration
into the core VISIBILITY ERP application, the project-based
manufacturers meet or exceed the requirements of each challenge,
while assuring that the solution would be long-lived without
bearing the burden which can accompany stand-alone custom
solutions.
