Avoid redundancies, increase efficiency
Duplicate data maintenance, media disruptions and inconsistent information. Many companies are only too familiar with these challenges. Particularly at the interfaces between purchasing, research & development (R&D) and quality assurance (QA), this results in avoidable costs, sources of error and inefficiencies.
In the current issue of Kuhn Trade Media our specialists Monika Weisgerber, Benedikt Mayer and Matthias Strobl shed light on how a well thought-out specification interface within the SAP system comes into play here.
Challenges in practice
Multiple maintenance of specifications in different departments
Discrepancies between purchasing, development and test data
No direct link to external requirements (e.g. EU limits)
High manual effort for recording results
Our approach: integration instead of isolated solutions
The GQS solution connects all relevant departments via a central specification in SAP PLM. This means that purchasing, R&D and QA always have access to the same, up-to-date data – efficiently, transparently and consistently.
This is particularly important:
Purchasing & Development work on the same database.
QS automatically uses the valid limit values for inspection lots.
EU MRL values are transferred to SAP via an interface.
The GQS QM Cockpit enables intuitive, role-based results recording.
Added value for the food industry
With this integrative approach, we support companies in avoiding redundancies, streamlining processes and ensuring compliance with legal requirements.
➡️ The result: a consistent, digital quality process from specification to results recording.
