Stature Quality Lifecycle ManagementStature Quality Lifecycle Management (QLM) enables companies to improve profitability by developing and delivering high quality, reliable products faster and at less cost than the competition.Stature Quality Lifecycle Management ensures continuous improvement through cross-functional collaboration, a closed-loop quality lifecycle and enterprise quality specifications leveraging the deep knowledge-base in your organization. Most importantly, Stature enables early planning and specification of quality where it has the most impact – before design. Stature Quality Lifecycle Management Delivers Measurable Business Results:Reduce the Cost of Poor QualityThe Stature software solution helps companies dramatically reduce the cost of poor quality in their organizations by reducing repeat mistakes, proactively improving designs based on lessons learned and reducing the communication gap between departments and organizations. Features, goals, measurements and actions that were dispersed over hundreds of spreadsheets are turned into collaborative quality specifications enabling continuous improvement. Lessons Learned and Knowledge Management In today's global and highly competitive market your organization's knowledge of how you design, build and deliver high-quality, high-value products and processes is your most valuable asset. By providing a common vocabulary and knowledge-base for requirements, functions, failure modes, effects and causes Stature automates the development of lessons learned in a format that is easily and directly accessible to the authors of quality specifications in subsequent development cycles. Accurate and Consistent Quality Planning Specifications Stature's knowledge-base of lessons learned is structured in the format of your quality specifications. Information such as failure modes, effects and causes can then be transferred directly into quality specifications. As a result, Stature enables companies to create accurate, consistent quality specifications across their organization, strengthening the capture and reuse of information within new programs. The knowledge-base drives accurate specifications resulting in high-value, useable data. This cycle of continuous improvement significantly enhances your company's ability to execute and compete in a competitive global marketplace. Improved Communication Across Departments and Organizations A recurring problem is poor communication between engineering and manufacturing. Weak communication is the result of inaccurate, inconsistent quality specifications and the inability to share knowledge and automate processes across departments and organizations. Stature's common vocabulary enables engineering and manufacturing to align their communication and business processes by ensuring everyone is speaking the same language. Stature QLM allows previously unstructured and hard-to-relate data to be clearly and cleanly linked. Cost-Effective Quality Planning A comprehensive knowledge-base of experiences, built on a consistent vocabulary of requirements, functions, failure modes and effects, not only improves the quality and value of quality specifications such as FMEAs, but allows them to be created in significantly less time. This in turn drives adoption of quality planning within an organization, and improves the ability to capture knowledge and reuse it throughout your organization. |
