Deacom's Hyper-Tight Process Control™: Ensuring Quality and Repeatability, where others fall short as no other ERP provider has a trademarked method like Deacom.
While Datacor offers features for quality control, Deacom takes it a step further with its proprietary Hyper-Tight Process Control™ (HTPC). This innovative approach goes beyond simple data capture to actively enforce critical manufacturing procedures, ensuring consistent quality and maximizing efficiency.
Here's how HTPC sets Deacom apart:
Guiding Your Production Journey
HTPC incorporates built-in stage gates throughout your production workflow. These act as checkpoints, ensuring all necessary steps are completed before moving on to the next stage. This minimizes the risk of errors and bypassing critical processes that could compromise product quality.
Zero Tolerance for Shortcuts
This prevents unauthorized shortcuts or skipping of essential production steps, guaranteeing consistent quality control across every batch.
Repeatability for Success
By enforcing consistent manufacturing practices, HTPC supports repeatable and scalable production processes. This leads to increased efficiency, reduced errors, and a stronger foundation for continuous improvement.
