Keeping your shop floor running smoothly while maintaining ISO 9001 and AS9100 standards can feel like a juggling act. From contract reviews and gauge calibration to non conformance management, there’s a lot to keep on top of.
In a recent technical discussion with Tom Skubala of MTDCNC, Geoff Gartland, Managing Director of PSL Datatrack, explains how the right software can make all the difference.
“There’s a very broad spectrum of quality aspects that PSL Datatrack will manage,” Geoff comments.
The Problem with Manual Quality Management
For many subcontract precision engineers, quality processes like contract reviews and gauge calibration checks are still handled manually – on paper, in spreadsheets, or by using standalone tools that don’t integrate with the rest of the business.
That means critical actions get missed, errors slip through the cracks and you’re always playing catch-up when it comes to audits or ISO compliance.
The PSL Datatrack Solution
Geoff goes on to highlight how PSL Datatrack brings everything together into a single, connected system – turning quality from a pain point into a competitive advantage.
PSL Datatrack offers a modular system, enabling users to tailor a package to their unique business needs. The Quality modules available from PSL Datatrack are:
Customisable review elements, with risk level control, both at the point of quotation and order processing with digital-sign off.
Manage and monitor all gauges, keeping track of calibration intervals and allocating them to works orders when required.
Log issues against works orders or suppliers, ensure problems are addressed and prevent the same mistakes from happening twice.
“It depends what level you want to get to, to ensure that you comply,” continues Geoff.
