Margin Improvement
Businesses face significant margin erosion due to poor quality. Multiple factors lead to such margin erosion – poor quality of raw material and components, supply disruptions due to poor quality of raw materials and components, time consuming IQC, improper recipe management, manufacturing process deviations, unscheduled manufacturing equipment downtime, improper equipment calibration, reworks and scrap due to improper IQC and/or quality control, material returns and warranty claims due to quality control failures, and segregation, rework, repair and/or replacement costs at customer locations due to product failure at such locations.
