REAL-TIME VISIBILITY ACROSS YOUR ENTIRE MANUFACTURING NETWORK

42Q Connected
Manufacturing®

42Q Connected Manufacturing® solves the challenge of fragmented data for distributed manufacturers. It goes beyond visibility to deliver centralized control across your production network. By unifying all disparate MES and shop floor systems into a single, authoritative system of record, 42Q provides a unified, single-pane-of-glass view. Specializing in manufacturer-to-manufacturer data exchange, the platform automatically pushes unit history from all locations to a central instance. This ensures precise coordination, allows you to enforce robust processes, and grants instant insights to ensure maximum efficiency globally.

Global Integration

42Q Connected Manufacturing® delivers innovative capabilities, engineered for seamless global integration and operational excellence. The platform supports manufacturer-to-manufacturer data exchange and direct control by pushing comprehensive unit history data from source instances to a central or global instance. This critical functionality enables remote tracking of products as they move through different production stages or between contract manufacturers, ensuring traceability and coordinated execution across borders.

Key Features:

Centralized Control & Data Synchronization

Unify individual MES instances across diverse manufacturing sites into one comprehensive view of production. This enables remote tracking and centralized control of your operations, allowing you to implement and enforce holds on products or components consistently across all connected manufacturers.

Comprehensive Unit History (EDHR)

Capture and append detailed unit history data from every stage of production, irrespective of location or supplier. This provides a complete lifecycle of traceability for each unit, supporting robust after-sales services and ensuring a comprehensive electronic device history record (EDHR).

Real-time Performance Insights

Push critical data from each supplier directly into a central 42Q Global Instance, enabling real-time reporting and benchmarking across your network. This facilitates rapid identification of defect trends, empowers data-driven vendor management decisions, and significantly enhances product quality and consistency across multiple contract manufacturers.

Centralized Component Traceability

Consolidate component data across all connected instances. Gain a unified, central knowledge base of which components are integrated into which products from which suppliers, eliminating the need to query individual manufacturers.

Automated Data Flow

Leverage API-based integration and event-based data transfer for seamless information exchange. This improves your operations from weekly updates to real-time inventory visibility, allowing you to prioritize sales of in-stock items and dramatically improve fulfillment efficiency.
