The above seminar has been successfully held on 20 October 2009, 1.00pm at Edsa Shangri-la Hotel, Manila, in conjunction with our partner’s, DKSH, yearly LabTec event. Participants from various industries, i.e., Food, Beverage, Pharmaceutical, Mining, Tiles, Metal, Semiconductors had attended the even that lasted for close to 2 hours.
The presentation brought to the audiences some proven solutions to effectively reduce manufacturing cost and increase product quality, thus maintain or even increase manufacturers’ profitability. It has addressed the following key opportunities for improvement using FexSoft Quality Management Software System (FexQMS):
a) how efficiency and effectiveness in quality control can be improved with an integrated quality system;
b) what is the most efficient and cost effective methods for integrating test equipment and collecting day-to-day quality data;
c) how FexQMS facilitates problem solving, audits, complains resolution and overall process improvements,
d) how to leverage on quality system for faster and easier HACCP and other food and drug regulatory certifications and maintenance.
The advantages of predictive-based quality control using Statistical Process Control (SPC) as compared to detective-based was also discussed. Finally, the audiences were shown, via software demo, on how easily existing quality data can be converted to do both detective and predictive based quality control using FexQMS.
A system demo conducted during the presentation has given the audiences an opportunity to see how actual industrial example from filling and packaging processes have successfully implementing the system to improve quality and reduce costs.
At the end of the presentation, enthusiastic audiences have posted very relevant questions on the application of such system in their operation, some of which we will discuss it in our coming blogs.
We are looking forward to the next year seminar with our partner and working towards continually serving and supporting the Philippines industries.
