Quality Management Software
What is Quality Collaboration By Design?

QCBD™ is an integrated Quality Management Software for managing all your quality data. It is a suite of software modules which interact to capture and evaluate quality performance information. Designed specifically for manufacturing companies, QCBD dramatically reduces the cost of achieving and maintaining compliance to quality management standards such as ISO 9001, ISO 13485, AS9100, TS 16949 and SQF 2000 / ISO 22000.

Customer Complaints – record problems reported by your customers. Complaint handling software helps you to document reports of adverse product performance. Complaint reports can be one characteristic for assessing customer satisfaction.


Corrective and Preventive Actions (CAPA system)– Create and manage  Corrective Action Reports (CAR's). A central database to record actions taken to correct and/or prevent quality failures. Identify, analyze and correct adverse quality conditions. Process CAR's, Audit CAR's and Vendor CAR's all follow the traditional "8D" model.


Process Deviations – document the departure from standard practices and standard procedures. An audit trail of approval when departure from standard practice is necessary.


Document and Change Control – a fully functional document control system. Manage document changes and ensure that all changes are authorized. Link document changes to training records (complete change and revision control).


Equipment Management – calibration and preventative maintenance of all types of equipment. Improve process control through preventative maintenance. Manage calibration of all your inspection and test equipment.


Nonconformance Tracking – record all your product related discrepancies. Identify, segregate, control and analyze non-conforming materials (non-conforming material and non-conforming process control).


Supplier Management – a master list of all your approved suppliers. Control and evaluate suppliers and assess supplier quality performance.



Training Records – a fully functional training management system. Manage and track all your employee training requirements. Define training requirements (training plans), record training completed, build a training matrix and deliver training content specific to your organization. Link training to your document control system.


Report Engine – Automatic reports. Subscribe to any QCBD report and have it delivered direct to your email account.
