By extending proactive quality management to the shop floor, organizations can boost quality and innovation across the product manufacturing process, enabling product optimizations and continuous improvement.
ETQ has partnered with Acerta Analytics, a developer of predictive quality analytics software for manufacturers, to integrate Acerta LinePulse, an AI and machine learning-based solution, with ETQ Reliance. The partnership will allow ETQ and Acerta customers to benefit from a predictive, closed-loop quality system that marries real-time data analysis with advanced quality workflows.
“Today’s manufacturers worry about the performance of their plants, how to ensure operational efficiency, meet compliance requirements, and manage risk, all while preserving innovation, ensuring on-time delivery of quality products to their customers,” says Vick Vaishnavi, CEO of ETQ. “Heavy on their minds is the possibility of product recalls. In fact, in a recent ETQ Pulse of Quality in Manufacturing survey, 73% of respondents said they had a product recall in the last five years, and 48% said there have been more recalls than there were five years ago. The ETQ Reliance Predictive Quality solution combines AI technology and expert human knowledge to help identify production problems sooner and resolve them faster to avoid costly, brand-damaging recalls and other quality issues.”
“We’re pleased to be partnering with ETQ,” says Greta Cutulenco, co-founder and CEO of Acerta Analytics. “Coupled with Acerta’s long-standing history of providing AI solutions to large automotive manufacturers, together we will now deliver insights to manufacturers that help them predict and resolve issues with real-time analysis of their shop-floor data, and expert feedback from ETQ Reliance users. Our combined solution helps manufacturers work quickly and efficiently to prevent scrap and rework and manage critical quality events.”
