AUTOMOTIVE SECTOR

MES for automotive and component manufacturing

OEM and Tier-1 customers don’t just buy components. They buy evidence that those components are correct.

QPlant meets the demands of OEM and Tier-1 customers: traceability by serial number, digital process guide with validations, real-time SPC and structured manufacturing
records. For plants that need to prove, not just manufacture well.

AUTOMOTIVE SECTOR

The Automotive Sector

Automotive component plants operate under constant pressure: tight tolerances, demanding quality requirements, individual traceability by part or serial number, and customer audits that can put homologation at risk. Repeatability is not optional.

QPlant makes repeatability structural: every critical operation runs the same way, with the same controls and the same evidence, integrating with your ERP and SCADA systems for seamless digitalization.

The challenges of Automotive

Automotive component plants operate under constant pressure: tight tolerances, demanding quality requirements, individual traceability by part or serial number, and periodic customer audits that can put homologation at risk. Repeatability is not optional — every critical operation must run the same way, with the same controls and the same evidence, regardless of the shift or the operator.

Traceability by serial number

Traceability by serial number

  • Traceability by component, batch or serial number
  • Backward and forward traceability tree
  • Exact identification of a recall’s scope
  • Link between manufacturing and destination customer
  • Materials, operations and controls traced
Repeatability of critical operations

Repeatability of critical operations

  • Digital process guide with mandatory validations
  • Controls per operation, signed and recorded
  • Repeatability independent of shift or operator
  • Objective compliance evidence
  • Blocking when steps are not validated
SPC and process capability (IATF 16949)

SPC and process capability (IATF 16949)

  • Real-time statistical process control
  • Control charts, Cp and Cpk
  • Automatic alerts before going out of limits
  • Trend detection before failure
  • Data ready for customer requirements
Equipment availability and OTD

Equipment availability and OTD

  • OEE per resource with downtime analysis by cause
  • Maintenance connected with production
  • Prioritization of interventions by real impact
  • Reduction of stoppages and micro-stoppages
  • Better adherence to the plan and OTD
Customer audits

Customer audits

  • Batch Records with traceability and SPC
  • Accessible process guide and quality records
  • Structured and available documentation
  • Verification without manual searches
  • Less time and stress in every audit
BENEFITS

What your plant gains

Every challenge solved with QPlant translates into a concrete, measurable improvement in your operation.

Reto: Traceability required by serial no. · Solución: Traceability by component, batch or serial

In the event of a claim or a recall, you identify exactly which components are affected, when they were manufactured and to whom they were delivered.

Reto: Critical operations with low repeatability · Solución: Digital guide with mandatory validations

Repeatability is structural; it doesn't depend on the operator's experience. Compliance evidence is objective.

Reto: SPC required by customer (IATF 16949) · Solución: Real-time SPC with automatic alerts

Statistical process control is continuous, not an after-the-fact analysis. Trends are detected before failure.

Reto: Micro-stoppages that affect OTD · Solución: OEE per resource and connected maintenance

The availability of critical equipment improves because problems are tackled with data, not intuition.

Reto: Time-consuming customer audits · Solución: Batch Records, SPC and quality in the system

Audit documentation is structured and available. The customer or auditor can verify without the need for manual searches.
