Poor quality has a significant impact on businesses. It’s often costly to fix and can cause serious damage to a company’s reputation. Quality assurance is critical to ensure that products and services are delivered to customers as promised. More importantly, it helps to avoid costly expenditures due to poor quality.

Poor quality can be caused by a variety of contributing factors:

• inadequate processes
• poor materials or components
• insufficient testing
• incorrect or inadequate production techniques

All of these factors contribute to higher costs and lower customer satisfaction.

Implementing a quality management system like Quality365 can ensure that you and your team have access to timely accurate data in one location. The more data you have, the more likely you are to prevent issues before they arise, which reduces cost and improves quality.

Quality365 with the help of Power BI helps you pull data together onto one page. The quality team, external auditors, anyone viewing a detail page can see a full 360° view of the record, and everything related to that record, in one place. The data feeds into metrics on KPI dashboards that are fully clickable, allowing the user to drill-down to detail records for greater insight and analysis.
