As consumer profiles change due to hybrid workforces largely working from home, socially responsible investors, and global supply chain crunches, quality management and Quality Management Systems (QMS) are becoming a higher priority for heavy process industries. Companies are looking for end to-end QMS software solutions with interoperable modules,overarching workflows with orchestrated processes, and robust Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) to other key systems (e.g., ERP, LIMS, PLM, MES, etc.). Quality management varies by industry, product lines, regulatory environments, and geographies.
The Operational Sustainability® (OS) OESuite® Quality Management Solution provides a pathway to avoid quality issues early in the product design and manufacturing process to help ensure minimal product non-conformances. From non-conformance reporting to customer complaints and remote auditing, the Quality Management Solution helps companies adhere to suggested practices (e.g., ISO 9001, ISO 31000) and related practices (e.g., ISO 14001, ISO 18001), while addressing regulatory requirements. OS enables clients to deal with change through several core modules and features.
