Automotive Industry

Automotive manufacturers face a challenging regulatory environment, highly dynamic production schedules, and an increasingly global supply chain. The 42Q Cloud MES solution was designed specifically to meet these challenges, delivering visibility and control across complex manufacturing operations and global supply chains. 42Q is IATF 16949 compliant and provides confidence based on years of automotive production in over a dozen automotive manufacturing locations. Complete product and process traceability, enterprise-wide enforcement and visibility results in predictable quality, and higher customer satisfaction.

Our clients use 42Q’s unique, multi-tenant Cloud technology to manage third-party component supplier requirements. Production data is stored in a common format that can be easily shared and integrated with these tiered systems. Full genealogy and traceability on every manufactured part is provided including detailed information such as: BOM, serial number and manufacturing dates. Test data is automatically collected and measured against specifications. Test results can drive line alerts, or even line holds to allow corrective actions.
