Come QSC ha ottimizzato la selezione dei componenti elettronici e la gestione del rischio nella catena di approvvigionamento
Lo strumento vale ogni centesimo. È uno strumento prezioso e fondamentale. Non c'è nulla che io voglia che non sia presente nello strumento. Posso affermare che Z2Data mi fa risparmiare almeno 10 ore a settimana, e questo solo nel mio ruolo. Z2Data copre tutti gli aspetti del componente, dalla progettazione alla produzione. Non solo fa risparmiare tempo a me, ma anche ai team di conformità normativa, approvvigionamento e progettazione. Ogni reparto risparmia moltissimo tempo utilizzando la piattaforma Z2Data.

The Background
QSC is a globally-recognized leader in the design, engineering and manufacturing of award-winning solutions and services with R&D, manufacturing, sales, marketing, support and operations teams across multiple continents.
QSC was using various tools to manage its component selection, compliance, and supply chain risk management, which created operational inefficiencies and did not fully meet the companies needs.
Solution
To help streamline operations and bridge the gap and increase operation productivity, Karon Evanoff, the SVP of Global Operations, recommends streamlining the supply chain risk management program by using Z2Data's Supply Chain Risk Management (SCRM) Platform and a suite of products.
After thoroughly vetting and onboarding the Z2Data Compliance Module, the QSC executive team recognized the benefits of incorporating fully integrated supply chain risk management solutions. As a result, Z2Data's Part Risk Manager and the Supply Chain Watch tools were also integrated within QSC's business units.
Result
Z2Data is now being used from start to finish of the component journey from component selection, BOM analysis, PCN and Life-Cycle management, compliance, cross-reference analysis, and reliability testing to sourcing, helping bring agility and resiliency to QSC's supply chain management process.
The parts are first analyzed for design feasibility, life cycle status, availability, and compliance prior to being approved for production and sourcing. The tool is further used to receive real-time alerts and to mitigate supply chain disruptions such as component obsolescence.
