without quality control, you risk more than scrap
Production doesn't stop when quality slips —but your reputation, profit, and customer satisfaction do. Without a centralized system to manage and enforce quality processes, small issues become recurring problems that undermine your entire operation.
Many manufacturers rely on manual inspections or disconnected spreadsheets, leading to:
✘ Defects slip through and reach the customer (damaging your reputation)
✘ Rework and scrap eat into margins and delay production schedules
✘ Quality data is scattered, making root cause impossible to analyze
✘ Compliance risks rise without digital audit trails or traceability
✘ Operators rely on outdated specs or institutional knowledge to check quality
With real-time visibility, digital checkpoints, and built-in quality alerts, Quantum helps your team stop errors before they start. Whether you're tracking product specs, capturing inspections on the floor, or ensuring compliance with industry standards, Quantum makes it easy to build quality directly into your workflows.

production control
Manage every job on your shop floor on-time without opening a spreadsheet or tracking down a routing. Control the flow of production with job control, priority rules, and live feedback from the floor. Whether you have one big job or 1,000s all at once, Quantum keeps everything running on time and in order.
With Quantum, supervisors don't waste hours chasing down updates or reporting jobs manually, changes work their way through the system automatically. Production stays aligned with delivery commitments, even when urgent jobs or last-minute changes hit. The result: fewer delays, smoother workflows, and higher on-time delivery rates without overwhelming your supervisors. A piece of mind knowing every job is tracked, controlled, and completed profitably.
digital work instructions
Deliver step-by-step instructions directly to operators, customized by part, shift, or line. Attach videos, images, diagrams, text and alternate instructions. Quantum ensures standardized processes and faster training with dynamic, visual documentation. Instead of relying on outdated paper packets or institutional knowledge, operators always have the most current version of instructions at their fingertips. Updates push instantly to the floor, eliminating confusion, wasted work, and costly rework.
Operators work with greater confidence and accuracy, which reduces scrap, accelerates onboarding, and keeps production consistent across every shift. Quantum transforms training and compliance from a burden into a strength.
process tracking
Manage every step of the processes you are running on your shop floor, whether it's a simple routing, a job packet or a complex set of integrated process steps. With Quantum, your team always knows the status of each order—no spreadsheets, no guesswork. Every handoff, approval, and milestone is tracked in real time. Managers can quickly spot bottlenecks, operators know what's next, and leadership has full visibility into progress and profitability.
That means better visibility, faster problem-solving, and the ability to hit deadlines without relying on manual updates. Quantum ensures nothing gets lost in the shuffle, even on your busiest production days.
product & process setup
Design your products and build the processes to manufacture them from simple job steps to complex, multi-stage routings. Whether you need basic work instructions or detailed engineering-driven workflows, this is where production begins. Setups that once took weeks can be digitized, tested, and launched quickly in Quantum. Your engineering team can define processes once, then scale them seamlessly across parts, job, and lines.
Quantum ensures that every new product launch or process update starts right the first time, cutting down trial-and-error costs and getting you into production faster. Consistency and repeatability becomes built-in, not an afterthought.
quality control
Demand complete compliance with your processes and your audit requirements. Reallocate work automatically or on-demand with the touch of a button. Capture quality checks, specs, and nonconformances as they happen. Quantum helps enforce quality gates and instantly flags issues—before they hit the customer. Because Quantum integrates quality checks directly into production workflows, quality becomes proactive instead of reactive. Issues are flagged early, so teams can respond immediately rather than after defects pile up.
This reduces rework, improves customer satisfaction, and protects your reputation while making audits simple and stress-free. Quantum ensures quality isn't just inspected, it's built into everything you produce.
alerts
Ensure every member of your shop can communicate with the right team(s) without wandering around. Get real-time alerts for production delays, tool expirations, missed scans, and more. Send alerts or just leave notes for future shifts. With Quantum, your team can act fast—before small issues become big problems. Instead of relying on radios, sticky notes, or word-of-mouth, Quantum keeps communication instant, visible, and logged. Operators, supervisors, and leadership all stay aligned without stepping away from their work.
Instant communication means fewer bottlenecks, quicker recoveries, and a more connected shop floor that runs smoothly across every shift. It's like having a built-in notification system for your shop floor.
