Ground-Breaking Synergy 3000 SPC Software Designed for Global Supplier Quality Management
Cincinnati, OH - Zontec Inc., announced today the release of its Synergy 3000(TM) Statistical Process Control (SPC) Software for full global implementation over any combination of Windows® networks and Web services.
A breakthrough approach to managing product quality, Synergy 3000 gives manufacturers with dispersed operations the technical infrastructure they need to unite in-house production or assembly lines, multi-tier suppliers, material vendors, subcontractors and alliance partners into a single, focused improvement team. The software has been designed for centralized management of processes through integrated, interconnected and collaborating "communities" up and down the supply chain. Synergy 3000 represents the next generation of enterprise quality systems and serves as the enabling tool for measuring, controlling and managing compliance as well as reducing costs and mitigating operational risks.
DRAMATICALLY REDUCE COSTS WITH REVOLUTIONARY PROACTIVE APPROACH TO SPC
The combined impact of outsourcing, corporate mergers, business cycles, workflows, product recalls and fierce competition have unfortunately complicated the manufacturer's ability to implement and enforce a worldwide set of quality standards. Synergy 3000 provides a simple and effective way to communicate what is acceptable and what is not among all participants in a process. The software helps manufacturers quickly change their corporate culture from an after-the-fact "inspect and reject" activity to a much more improvement-oriented "predict and prevent" mindset. It delivers real-time process feedback that ultimately translates into millions of dollars in savings.
"For well over a decade, technology providers have struggled with the remote sharing of production information via the World Wide Web," says Zontec President Warren Ha. "Many software developers jumped on the Web bandwagon far too soon, locking into immature Internet-enabled architectures that sacrifice bi-directional data exchange."
"Zontec's strategy emphasizes the marriage of Windows and Web technologies to leverage the high performance aspect of traditional network operating systems with the rich connectivity opportunities afforded by the Web," explains Ha. "The only way to realize these ambitious goals was to completely re-think and re-write our application from the ground up using a Microsoft .NET(TM)-managed code framework with an SQL database engine. The decision to build Synergy 3000 as a pure .NET solution allows us to evolve with Web services and connectivity opportunities regardless of what the future brings. Therefore, Synergy 3000 is unlike any other quality management software available today," he points out.
INNOVATIVE WEB BROWSER-BASED CLIENT AVAILABLE TODAY
Synergy 3000 gives the manufacturer total control over its supply chain.
For the first time in any SPC software program, suppliers can log onto a customer's Web server and perform data collection directly within a powerful, secure Web Operator browser application. This approach delivers a series of important benefits to both customer and supplier that include:
o The flexibility to create individual SQL supplier databases within a centralized data warehouse.
o Freeing suppliers from inconsistent data management, reporting and security issues.
o Complete traceability and accountability records.
o Knowledge-sharing and troubleshooting through on-line procedures and reference documents that the supplier can easily follow.
o Automatic e-mail and text message notification to designated customer and supplier contacts when process violations occur.
o S ignificantly reducing or eliminating incoming part inspections.
o Short implementation time with immediate results.
The system also features a second, complementary browser application, the Synergy 3000 Web Manager, that gives remote monitoring and reporting capabilities to mobile users.
"Manufacturers are by no means turning their back on traditional Windows SPC systems," says Corbit Harrison, Zontec VP for Sales & Marketing.
"The shift to true SPC Web applications will enhance the industrial data automation capabilities and analytics currently available on our Windows-based software. Global convergence has changed the way manufacturers conduct business, and Synergy 3000 is positioned to deliver agile, proactive quality systems that make our customers highly profitable by strengthening their relationship with suppliers."
