From the moment raw materials are received to the moment finished goods are shipped, Motorola's Quality Management Solutions improve quality and compliance.
By combining handheld computers, advanced data capture, radio frequency identification (RFID) and wireless local area network (WLAN) technologies with partner applications, Motorola’s Quality Management Solutions allow you to track and trace by lot or batch for parts or ingredients to ensure quality across the supply chain.
Error Proofing
Utilize mobile technology and data collection systems to validate that all operations and paperwork have been completed to specification. Operators scan pre- and post-operation or process. Any overlooked process, assembly or procedural step can be easily identified and corrected before impacting productivity or requiring costly re-work.
Inspection
Paper-based inspection processes, including forms, can be unproductive and error prone. Empowering your quality engineers and inspectors with a mobile computer can transform these manual processes and reduce associated errors. That means they can more efficiently inspect and validate work — and information is available in real-time, creating visibility across operations.
Quarantine
Isolating materials and product that are out of specification or tolerance is a critical, yet time consuming, aspect of any quality program. Mobile computers and data collection systems enable rapid recognition and disposition of quarantined materials. And when this information is available in real-time, it can help prevent unauthorized or inadvertent use of out of specification materials — protecting your company from the financial and brand impact associated with a product recall.
Batch Traceability
Mobile data collection technology, in conjunction with application software, enables efficient and error-proof tracking of batches of raw material through the capture of accurate batch serial numbers. This electronic record provides batch ‘visibility’ into all products, enabling rapid response to product quality issues. The same is true for discreet manufacturers leveraging a mobile track and trace solution to create an electronic product ‘geneaology’ that contains serial numbers for all parts of an assembly enabling quick efficient and quiet recalls if required.
