Why It Matters

Poor Quality Costs
5–35% of Revenue Every Year

The Cost of Poor Quality, or CoPQ, affects much more than scrap and rework.

Poor quality creates losses through:

  • Scrap, rejection, and rework
  • Customer complaints, returns, and warranty claims
  • Production delays and downtime
  • Extra inspection, sorting, and urgent dispatch
  • Audit and compliance failures
  • Repeat defects and poor supplier quality

FAST Quality helps you connect these quality losses in one system. It gives:

  • Leadership a clear view of quality performance and cost
  • Quality teams better control over complaints, CAPA, audits, and inspections
  • Production teams faster action on defects and process issues
  • Customers more confidence in product quality and delivery

The result is better quality, lower CoPQ, improved delivery, higher productivity, and steady progress towards Six Sigma and world-class manufacturing.

SAMAR-Ready QMS for Defense Manufacturing

FAST Quality is one of the few enterprise quality management platforms that has been successfully implemented and validated in DRDO-linked defense manufacturing environments. We support organizations seeking SAMAR compliance — and have field-proven implementation experience with ITR (Integrated Test Range), Chandipur.

Process Discipline Tracking

SAMAR evaluates whether your defined processes are followed consistently. FAST Quality makes adherence visible — inspection by inspection, shift by shift.

Manufacturing Capability Evidence

Equipment effectiveness, process capability (Cp/Cpk), and SPC data — the objective evidence SAMAR assessors examine — are automatically generated by the platform.

Audit-Ready Documentation

Every quality record is timestamped, traceable, and retrievable in seconds. No pre-audit document scrambles. No missing calibration certificates. No gaps.

Thought Leadership

Quality Is Never an Accident — It Is the Result of Intelligent Effort

Quality is never an accident; it is always the result of intelligent effort. In today's competitive manufacturing environment, that intelligent effort must be powered by real-time data, automated workflows, and connected systems.

John Ruskin — Adapted for Industry 4.0

Without data, you are just another person with an opinion. Quality decisions grounded in real-time analytics, not gut instinct, are what separate world-class manufacturers from those who merely survive.

W. Edwards Deming — Quality Leadership Principle

Quality means doing it right when no one is looking. A digital quality management system creates transparency that makes quality visible to everyone — and accountable to no one hiding from it.

Henry Ford — Manufacturing Excellence

Continuous improvement is better than delayed perfection. The organizations that win on quality are not those with the perfect system on paper — they are those that improve every process, every day, with the right tools in hand.

Mark Twain — Continuous Improvement Philosophy
FAST Quality's Position

Quality Intelligence Must Be Continuous, Automatic, and Actionable

In the Industry 4.0 era, intelligent effort means embedding data collection, analysis, and corrective triggers directly into the production workflow — not reviewing reports after the fact. FAST Quality is built on the conviction that every defect is preventable when you have the right information at the right moment.

FAQ

Questions About FAST Quality

Everything you need to know before scheduling your demonstration — from deployment timelines to integration requirements and licensing options.

Speak to a Specialist
Deployment timelines vary based on the number of modules, integration complexity, and organizational scale. A single-site deployment of core inspection and document management modules typically goes live within 6–12 weeks. Multi-site enterprise deployments with full ERP integration typically complete within 16–24 weeks, including data migration, user training, and go-live support.
Yes. FAST Quality provides pre-built connectors for SAP, Oracle, Tally, and other major ERP platforms. For ERP systems without a pre-built connector, our integration framework supports REST API, webhook, and database-level integration options. Our integration team conducts a full technical assessment before deployment to define the optimal integration architecture for your specific ERP version and configuration.
FAST Quality is available in both cloud-hosted (SaaS) and on-premise deployment configurations. Our cloud deployment provides automatic updates, 99.8% uptime SLA, and enterprise-grade security. On-premise deployment is available for organizations with specific data residency requirements, air-gapped environments, or internal IT governance policies that require local hosting.
FAST Quality is designed to support ISO 9001:2015, IATF 16949:2016, AS9100 Rev D, ISO 13485:2016, FDA 21 CFR Part 820, GMP, and industry-specific compliance frameworks. Built-in methodology support covers APQP, PPAP (all 18 elements), FMEA (AIAG-VDA), MSA (AIAG), SPC, 8D problem solving, DMAIC, 5S, and Kaizen. Our template library includes over 200 pre-built inspection and audit checklists aligned to these standards.
FAST Quality connects directly to digital measuring instruments including Mitutoyo, Mahr, Keyence, and other major brands via USB, RS-232, and Bluetooth interfaces. Measurement data captured at source is transmitted directly into inspection records, eliminating manual transcription errors. We also support barcode scanner integration for component identification, weighing machine integration for weight-based inspection, and machine PLC integration for automated parameter logging.
FAST Quality is modular and scales from single-site manufacturers with 50 employees to multi-plant enterprise operations with 10,000+ users. Our modular licensing model means you deploy only the modules your operation requires today, and add additional modules as your quality maturity and operational scale grows. Entry-level configurations starting with core inspection and document management provide immediate ROI for manufacturers at any stage of their digital quality journey.
Every deployment includes structured onboarding training for end users, quality managers, and system administrators. Our training program is delivered in a combination of live instructor-led sessions, self-paced video modules, and role-specific workshops. Ongoing support is provided through a dedicated customer success manager, technical support helpdesk, and an online knowledge base with 500+ documentation articles and tutorial videos.
An eQMS (electronic Quality Management System) digitizes the processes a traditional paper or spreadsheet-based QMS runs manually — inspection, complaints, audits, FMEA, document control — into one connected, auditable platform. FAST Quality is a full eQMS: every module shares data, workflows are configured (not generically customized) to each plant and industry, and 8D root cause analysis is AI-assisted rather than purely manual. Read our complete eQMS guide.
