Seamless Platform for Quality Management, Manufacturing Execution and Intelligence Enjoying Rapid Adoption across Industries
Charlotte, NC — December 18, 2008 — Camstar, the leading provider of Enterprise Manufacturing and Quality Execution solutions, today announced the general availability of version 4.3 of its Enterprise Platform.
Camstar’s Enterprise Platform unifies Quality Management, Manufacturing Execution and Intelligence into a seamless platform for advancing product quality across the supply chain.
“With version 4.3 we continue our mission of enabling manufacturers to deliver the highest quality products on time, the first time to meet market demand,” said Karim Lokas, Camstar’s Vice President of Product Strategy. “Camstar’s platform offers a fundamentally different approach to quality management – a comprehensive platform that provides global control and visibility over production with built-in quality processes that function as intended – to prevent quality issues from occurring. Manufacturing leaders are shifting away from compliance-focused procedural quality to more global, business-driven quality initiatives that impact final product quality, performance, safety and reliability.”
Scott Toney, Camstar’s President and CEO adds, “A focus on product quality is the top priority for businesses across industries, which is why this platform is proving so strategic to our customers. High product quality leads to leaner operations, higher customer satisfaction, higher market share and less risk of brand damage from product recalls – that is what will define the leaders, especially in the current economic climate.”
Manufacturers are choosing Camstar’s platform because it includes robust Non-Conformance Management, CAPA Management and Complaint Management that interoperate tightly with manufacturing functions. Coupling these capabilities with improved performance and monitoring reports, analyses, KPIs and dashboards to support manufacturing and quality processes is another compelling benefit for manufacturers.
Version 4.3 became available for general release on November 21, 2008. The concept of Advancing Product Quality and how it is enabled by version 4.3 of Camstar’s platform are discussed in the on-demand webinar “Changing the Game: The New Model for Quality-Driven Manufacturing Performance.” That presentation may be viewed at www.camstar.com/change-the-game.
