Quality Control

Test. Trace. Certify.
Every batch.

Standalone quality control system — quality plans, incoming/in-process/final inspection, paper-specific tests (GSM, brightness, moisture, opacity, tensile), NCR with root cause analysis, CAPA workflow, LIMS integration, and Certificate of Analysis generation.

Quality Plans

Define once. Apply everywhere.

Configure quality plans with sampling methodology (random, stratified, full), acceptance criteria, paper-specific test parameters per grade, customer specifications, and template-based plan inheritance.

  • Sampling methodology: random, stratified, full
  • Acceptance criteria (AQL, LQL)
  • Paper tests: GSM, brightness, moisture, opacity, tensile
  • Grade-specific test parameters
  • Customer specification overrides
  • Template inheritance with overrides
Inspection Workflow
Inspection Workflow

Inspection Workflow

Incoming. In-process. Final.

Three-stage inspection workflow — incoming materials at GRN, in-process at production stages, and final at FG batch. Each stage with per-parameter pass/fail, photo evidence, and signatures.

  • Incoming inspection at GRN
  • In-process inspection (Q2A workflow)
  • Final inspection at FG batch
  • Per-parameter pass/fail with tolerance
  • Photo + signature evidence
  • Multi-tier inspector approval
NCR & CAPA
NCR & CAPA

NCR & CAPA

Non-conformance. Closed.

Non-conformance reports with 5-Why root cause analysis, fishbone diagrams, corrective action plans, preventive action tracking, verification of effectiveness, and audit-ready closure documentation.

  • NCR with severity classification
  • 5-Why + Fishbone root cause analysis
  • CAPA (corrective + preventive action)
  • Verification of effectiveness
  • Closure documentation with sign-off
  • Audit-ready compliance reports
LIMS & CoA
LIMS & CoA

LIMS & CoA

Lab. Connected. Certified.

LIMS integration for automated test result import from lab equipment, AI-based test prediction before expensive testing, Certificate of Analysis (CoA) auto-generation, and digital signing for customer dispatch.

  • LIMS integration (auto-import test results)
  • AI-based test prediction
  • Certificate of Analysis (CoA) generation
  • Digital signing with PKI
  • Customer-specific CoA templates
  • Batch genealogy traceability

Quality Plans

Define what to test, how to sample, and what acceptance level to require — per material, grade, or customer. AQL (Acceptable Quality Level) and LQL drive sample sizes; auto-applied at GRN and final inspection.

Drill in

Multi-stage Inspection

Incoming inspection at GRN, in-process at every production stage, final at FG release. Each stage with its own parameter set; failed stages block downstream progression. No defective stock reaches the customer.

Drill in

NCR Workflow

Non-conformance reports with 5-Why and Fishbone root cause analysis templates. Track to closure with verification of effectiveness; audit-ready evidence of every issue and its resolution.

Drill in

CAPA Tracking

Corrective actions fix the immediate problem; preventive actions stop it from recurring. Both tracked with owner, due date, and effectiveness verification. ISO 9001 / IATF 16949 audit-ready evidence.

Drill in

LIMS Integration

Pull test results directly from lab equipment (tensile testers, brightness meters, GSM scales) into the QC record. No manual entry, no transcription errors; lab tech focuses on testing, not data entry.

Drill in

AI Test Prediction

Predict test results from production parameters before running expensive tests — if GSM and moisture are at certain levels, brightness will likely fail. Skip wasteful runs; catch problems before customer sees them.

Drill in

CoA Generation

Certificate of Analysis auto-generated from approved batch test results. Digitally signed with PKI for legal validity; customer-specific templates supported; attached to dispatch automatically.

Drill in

Batch Genealogy

Trace any finished batch back to source raw materials, production parameters, and operator. Trace any source batch forward to every product it ended up in. Critical for recalls and food-safety audits.

Drill in

SPC Charts

Statistical Process Control with X-bar, R, and individuals charts. Western Electric rules flag out-of-control runs; operators see violations live and intervene before producing rejects.

Integrations

Works with everything else.

Every QC action flows into the other modules — no manual data re-entry, no reconciliation pain.

FAQ

QC — common questions

Does it include LIMS (Lab Information Management System)?+

Yes. Sample logging, test scheduling, result entry, COA generation, equipment calibration, trend reporting.

Can quality plans be customer-specific?+

Yes. Each customer can have its own quality plan with specific tests, tolerances, and pass/fail criteria. COA per dispatch reflects the buyer's plan.

NCR and CAPA workflows built in?+

Yes. Non-conformance reports tied to batches, root-cause analysis, corrective and preventive action tracking, ISO 9001/IATF audit-ready records.

SPC charts and process control?+

Yes. X-bar R, p-chart, c-chart with UCL/LCL violations flagged in real time. Per-machine, per-grade dashboards.
