FlexNet Quality Execution – QES        
                                               
Enterprises that have spent considerable time and effort implementing ERP are now seeking ways to best extend and leverage this investment. By using ERP as a central data repository for enterprise-wide corporate applications, significant economies of scale can be attained, resulting in cost and time savings. Quality Management programs could benefit from such a resource.

Rather than overlay another system to implement and manage Quality, why not benefit by combining the power of ERP with the adaptability of FlexNet^® Quality to execute the plan? This grouping enables you to create a best-in-class solution that offers centralized management, real-time visibility and built-in integration to each of the applications impacting your overall quality management program.

Leveraging a Services Oriented Architecture (SOA) with business process authoring, FlexNet QES integrates with ERP systems to effectively become the execution component of a third party Quality Management System. With complete access to real-time data from each area of manufacturing operations—from receipt of raw materials through production, warehousing, and final delivery to the customer—FlexNet QES offers the following quality execution program benefits:

• Real-time visibility to quality noncompliance, enabling faster containment of quality issues
• Decreased cycle times through fewer rework processes, getting the job done right, the first time
• Improved work flows, increasing capacity utilization and reducing capital expenditures
• Effective management of raw materials, reducing cost of goods
• Automated quality validation and reporting, addressing regulatory compliance initiatives
