Data is only useful if it provides the right information to make quick and effective business decisions. PPI Quality & Engineering’s secure QA Reporter (QAR) software-as-a-service (SaaS) suite of applications complements our services. It houses all quality assurance and inventory management data in one place for improved overall quality outcomes through enhanced operational insight. The system allows outside vendors to securely participate in project execution, non-conformance reviews, and failure investigations. Customers can see all their quality data in one place.
Gone are the days of transferring handwritten notes in the field to spreadsheets back in the office, digging through copious amounts of data, and analyzing multiple pivot tables. Our QAR quality module runs from a central cloud-based database application that enables our customers to record, review, audit, and retrieve current and historical data. It tracks your QA efforts —and the results.
Inspectors and other QA/QC personnel use our QAR system to record quality data. Any authorized personnel can enter data, including external personnel and surveillance agencies. The guided input format provides consistent, comparable data that lends itself to automated reporting and analysis. Collected information also facilitates vendor performance analysis and other auditing processes.
