Background & results
As a domestic bus and coach maker, the plant must comply with the IATF 16949 automotive quality standard.
Picking, work reporting and in-process inspection were all on paper, making pre-delivery compilation slow and wasteful.
SCOPE
Vehicle-history traceability and production inspection, linking order intake, purchasing, receiving, picking, reporting, inspection and shipment into one continuous data flow
Supplier, inspection readings, operator and machine
The existing paper approval flow was moved online
Trace the materials in every vehicle
An audit asks which lot went into which vehicle, and which supplier it came from.
Vehicle history — picking detail
Chassis no. / project code / project name / work-order no. / part no. / part name; each line carries the picking slip, material name, material no., specification, quantity, serial number and receipt no.
Trace the labour on every vehicle
Which station, who did it, and how long it took — all answerable.
Vehicle history — labour detail
Line / process / date / headcount / station-in time / station-out time / units worked / allocated hours / machine / lead / supervisor / operator / plant
Trace the inspections on every vehicle
Readings, gauges and photos all stay on file — no paper to dig through before delivery.
Production QC — finished-vehicle checklist
Check name / model / date / chassis no. / motor no. / work order / customer; each line carries item, check point, content, spec value, measured value, status, remark, gauge, owning department and photo
