The dependability of supplies, critical to all manufacturing business, cannot be
left to chance nor to dealing with the problems after they arise. Recompense for
failures, detecting defects in use or striving to isolate faults by screening, are
all poor substitutes for proper management of supplies. Quite the best assurance
of supplies is an able supplier consistently working to agreed upon standards. Keeping
track of supplier data can be a challenge, particularly when dealing with multiple
sources of different supplies. We need to make it easy to capture and store the
data, but even more important we have to interpret the evidence and make it visible.
MQM V2.0 provides a solution for formalised recording of all materials, suppliers
and appropriate approvals, deliveries of materials and associated quality data whether
originating from the supplier by way of Certificates of Analysis or from sample
testing on receipt. Once data for a delivery is entered immediate analysis is possible
comparing the latest results to specification and against supply history, supporting
vital decisions on release to production.
