Supplier Quality - Defined Supplier Quality Management

Businesses rely on suppliers to maintain their efficiencies.  Even a minor breakdown in the supply chain, or a slight deviation from quality performance, can cost an organization valuable time and reduce profitability.  

Pilgrim Software's Supplier Quality software helps manufacturers effectively monitor supplier performance and measure the cost of supplier quality, and take the guesswork out of purchasing.  This Enterprise Quality solution can link to ERP/MRP systems to fill the quality checkpoint gap throughout the manufacturing process and become a fully-integrated part of a companyís existing supply chain management.

Supplier Quality Reinforces Online Inspection Plans & Procedures -

Through integration with Pilgrimís SmartDoc or other document management systems, Supplier Quality provides online availability of the most current SOPs and drawings for receiving inspection activities.  It also allows for creation of different types of sampling plans (ANS/ASQ such as C=0 and 21.9), and Acceptable Quality Level (AQL), and other characteristics, outlining the criteria to inspect supplied materials.  These plans then can be routed for approvals among the appropriate personnel.

 

 

Supplier Quality Monitors Receiving & Inspection Systems -


Through integration with Pilgrimís SmartAudit, or linking with existing ERP/MRP systems, Supplier Quality enables companies both to generate an approved supplier list and to monitor the effectiveness of a supplier base.  The receiving inspection system, through skip lot inspection capabilities and based on part inspection results, allows you to prevent out-of-spec supplied materials from entering your production environment.  


Supplier Quality Supports Online Reporting & Supplier Analyses -

Out-of-the-box analytical capabilities help manufacturers drill down on supplier problems. Supplier Quality helps to select the most cost-effective and highest-quality supplier, enabling the company to leverage its purchasing power across the enterprise, and ultimately reduce purchasing costs.


Supplier Quality Archives Supplier Data & Tracks Trends -

All historical information on each supplier, including automatically-calculated ratings and certifications, as well as CAPAs and inspection reports, is made available on-line through Supplier Quality.  This provides management with instant visibility into critical issues such as supplier quality trends.


Supplier Quality Reduces Errors & Related Costs -

Through a closed-loop CAPA process, Supplier Quality helps reduce the cost of supplier errors including late deliveries, defective raw materials and wrong orders, by identifying and tracking supplier corrective and preventive action status.  Suppliers also can access their own performance data so they can assess how well they are doing.  These capabilities result in a significant reduction in defects and their related costs.


Supplier Quality Facilitates Compliance & Validation -

With role-based document security, powerful password authentication, and a complete audit trail, SmartCAPA facilitates compliance with requirements such as 21 CFR Part 11.  Supplier Quality also meets various government regulations and ISO standards.
