Quality Management Solutions for Consumer Packaged Goods Companies

Maintain superior products at competitive prices and stay ahead of your peers

With increasing competition comes the constant need for organizations to strive for excellence. This quest for greatness was further intensified with the recent COVID-19 pandemic. Manufacturing and supply chains were deeply disrupted, affecting sourcing, logistics, production, and quality along the entire value chain. The crisis revealed existing weaknesses and newfound challenges, forcing organizations to put more emphasis than ever on quality management to improve their supply chain resilience and flexibility. The world will further evolve with new challenges and opportunities as organizations chart the course towards excellence.

Improve quality management and maximize results

When the pandemic forced millions of people to stay home, the demand for the Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) products was unlike anything seen or anticipated before. Consumer reliance on CPG manufacturers to meet their daily requirements followed a steep upward trajectory and will continue to do so in the future. This rising demand has not only given the existing players an opportunity to grow but also provided new entrants to the market with a chance to get ahead. But how can the manufacturers stand out among their peers and sustain growth?

Inspirage understands that today’s consumer is intently focused on product value to get the most for their dollar. Manufacturers interested in claiming their market share will need to revamp and improve their quality management to maximize results. To help our customers achieve this goal, Inspirage leverages the Oracle Quality Management System to provide highly robust and efficient industry-leading solutions.
 

 

Inspirage can help

With extensive industry experience and in-depth market analysis, Inspirage has identified key strategic drivers that CPG companies must have to stimulate growth in this dynamic environment:

  • Offer higher quality and more superior products than your peers
  • Provide items at competitive prices
  • Reduce the overall lead time and maintain stock availability
  • Meet the customer’s demand efficiently and effectively
  • Adhere to compliance and safety regulations
  • Interact seamlessly between business functions for higher throughput

 
Inspirage offers robust and scalable solutions for Oracle Quality Management System (QMS) to help CPG organizations drive growth. These solutions address all the QMS “must-haves,” including:

  • Monitoring, reviewing, and improving product quality on a continuous basis
    Our solutions help stakeholders make informed decisions regarding quality-based issues. They ensure manufacturing/procurement executions comply with inspection plans, helping to maintain product conformity. Supply chain quality issues are managed using a closed-loop process from issue to resolution and provide the ability to make quality-based continuous improvements using ‘Corrective and Preventive Actions’ (CAPA).
  • Reducing cost per item
    Our solutions provide early detection of quality issues with raw materials, WIP, or the finished goods by utilizing intuitive Quality Inspection Dashboards, which reduce rework, product recalls, and scraps and improve the bottom line.
  • Improving turnaround time of goods
    Our solutions help organizations reduce their defect rate through the collection and efficient handling of real-time, low/high volume quality data. This can help companies achieve a faster turnaround.
  • Ensuring product traceability
    Our solutions track the lot and serial numbers of the products throughout their lifecycle. This can reduce the time and cost of product recalls, and help organizations take proactive steps to prevent them in the future. Additionally, it streamlines the movement of materials within single or multiple organization facilities and improves material handling as well as documentation and reporting processes.
  • Providing efficient control of material movement
    Our solutions ensure only quality products are passed through to the consumer and subpar materials are repaired or discarded by using a defect handling mechanism.
  • Making interactions between various business functions seamless and efficient
    Our solutions use a closed-loop integration with the Procurement, Inventory, and Manufacturing functions to help improve the visibility of the entire product lifecycle and quality process. Process visibility improves the forward and backward communication process to improve supply chain efficiency.
