Business Process Management for Supply Chain

Ever wonder what it would be like to know when a supplier provided raw material might impact the quality of your product even before it is manufactured?

We hear many stories of products being returned or scraped due to a defective part or raw material provided by a supplier. Many times, these issues can be traced back to the quality of the raw material provided by one supplier. What if it were possible to predict when a raw material or combination of materials might have a negative impact on your product?

The ability to determine when a product might fail prior to the start of the manufacturing process could save your company substantial amounts of money and time each year. However, this is hard to do when in most cases the data is not available to determine why the process failed.

The effort it takes to automate supplier quality processes, collect data and analyze the results to determine when a raw material combined with another might produce an undesirable result is challenging.

Time, unfortunately, is not on your side. The concern is that your competitors have already begun this process and may be in different phases of implementing solutions.

What does that leave your company?

Challenge:

The concept of predictive analysis has been around for a long time.

With the rise of Industry 4.0 and the implementation of Quality 4.0, companies are not only beginning to realize the benefit of predictive analysis in manufacturing but to apply the concept to supplier quality.

To realize your goals, the future of supply chain management must be embraced.

It is paramount that your organization make the connection between supplier quality excellence and the ability of the organization, suppliers, and individuals to thrive in disruption, using quality principles to enable such transformation and growth.

The solution is multifaceted. You must approach each project by understanding the relationship between the supplier and the customer.
