(1factory: San Jose, CA) -- 1factory, Inc. has launch an online supplier quality management platform that enables buyers to implement quality controls, access inspection and process capability (Cp, Cpk) data, and collaborate with suppliers to improve manufacturing processes across the supply chain.

For suppliers, 1factory simplifies the tasks of creating and maintaining quality control plans, collecting inspection data, analyzing process capability and performance, and sharing the data with customers.

Standardizing and strengthening business processes
1factory is designed to integrate with existing inspection and business practices, while driving disciplined data collection and analysis across the supply chain. Data that are currently being recorded on spreadsheets and paper are instead entered into the 1factory system, where it is associated with a part number, lot number, serial number, date, gauge, and operator. Unlike blank spreadsheets, 1factory’s quality control plans enforce what measurements need to be taken.
