Recently, Jim Brown of TechClarity posted a blog on Siemens PLM Software’s new Dimensional Planning & Validation (DPV), solution for quality. Jim wrote, “One of the main things that manufacturers can do to improve quality is to “close the loop” on quality by feeding actual results back into the manufacturing and design processes to improve quality.” He goes on to say, “One of the key elements that make this beneficial is the analytical engine behind it, similar to other trends to use business intelligence (BI) in PLM.”

This is exactly why Siemens has developed DPV. Capturing as-built quality data from the shop floor, e.g. from coordinate measurement machines or visual measurement systems, and integrating it directly to the PLM platform Teamcenter. This enables for continuous product and process improvement through product design, manufacturing planning and production. More importantly with DPV, the design and manufacturing engineers do not need to switch between different IT systems. The quality data is available in a single source, fully associated to product, process, resources and plant information.

Yesterday evening I had the chance to talk to Al Hufstetler about our brand new quality management solution called Dimensional Planning and Validation. This is the first time our customers are able to retrieve the quality data from the shop floor and bring it back to the manufacturing and quality planners. And all this with the same platform they are using for their daily planning work: Teamcenter. This allows our customers to run reports and compare the as-build to the as-planned data. Even more they can compare the quality data from different plants, identify trends and take the required actions.
