Benefit of QMS and PLM capabilities for automotive manufacturers

As product and process complexity increases, automotive manufacturers face the critical need to implement quality management system (QMS) best practices throughout the entire product lifecycle. In this context, companies must redefine roles within product lifecycle management (PLM) to prioritize quality and compliance.

Broadening the scope of QMS

The CIMdata commentary is aimed at establishing a detailed analysis of the quality paradigm in connection with digital threads. QMS must expand beyond a slight focus on managing manufacturing repeatability and customer complaints management. A digital twin PLM solution comprehends changing consumer patterns and evolving manufacturing practices. Quality and compliance management best practices can be applied to all types of processes, and their use improves as PLM systems have enabled an accurate digital twin throughout the lifecycle.

Leveraging QMS and PLM capabilities

CIMdata analysts explain the benefit of integrating PLM and QMS processes seamlessly across the product lifecycle. Closed-loop quality broadens the domain of quality management to the complete closed-loop lifecycle of products. Executives with digital transformation programs can realize the advantages of a new quality paradigm. Siemens Xcelerator enables the digital thread and management of product data flowing across the complete lifecycle supporting closed-loop quality and comprehensive digital twins both on premises and on the cloud.
