Solutions / Quality & Production

Quality & Production

Run quality and production on one platform.

Off the paper travelers and out of the disconnected systems. Standard work, inspections, defects, corrective actions, and production tracking, all in one place and on every line.

Built multilingual, so a spec means the same thing at every station, in every language.

Quality lives in too many places. So defects slip through.

Work instructions in a binder, check sheets on a clipboard, defects on paper, dispositions in a spreadsheet, audits in yet another tool. By the time a problem surfaces, the lot has shipped.

Your whole quality system. One platform.

Standardized, inspectable, traceable, and on every line.

This is true even for an English-only line. The cost of poor quality runs 15% to 20% of sales,1 and most of it hides in paper travelers and disconnected systems. Add a multilingual workforce and a misread spec becomes a scrapped lot.

What "replace your quality system" actually means.

Real quality and production processes, running on UnDesked. Click any capability to see the process and the features behind it.

These eight are examples, not limits. Every one is built from the same drag-and-drop blocks, so if your team runs a process that is not here, you build it. There is no cap on workflows.

On the line

Quality and production, run from one place.

SOPs, checklists, and line management on every device, in every worker's language.

From defect to corrective action, without the paper trail.

When a defect is one tap and the loop is automated, problems get caught at the source, contained, fixed, and verified, before they ship.

Detect

Operator logs the defect on the line

Contain

Auto-hold the lot, alert quality

Correct

Open a corrective action with an owner

Verify

Confirm the fix is effective

Record

Logged to the part and the audit

Catching a defect at the station costs a fraction of catching it at the customer. The cost of poor quality runs 15% to 20% of sales when it is managed on paper.1

Built on the platform, not bolted together.

Every quality workflow is made from the same building blocks, deployed to any surface, translated underneath.

Building blocks

Forms, media, tests, agreements

Workflows

Sequenced and automated

Any surface

Signage, kiosk, mobile, tablet

The supercharger

Now, in every language.

Everything you just saw, delivered in each worker's language. Work instructions, defect reports, and a quality hold raised in Spanish that the quality lead reads in English.

Works for an English-only line. Becomes essential the moment your workforce is multilingual, where a misread spec is a scrapped lot.
