Based on its recent analysis of the North American Statistical Process Control (SPC)-based quality intelligence platform market, Frost & Sullivan recognizes InfinityQS with the 2019 North American Product Leadership Award for its cloud-native quality intelligence platform, Enact. Powered by SPC software, the platform provides users with enterprise-wide data visibility and tailored strategic, actionable insights. The clean-sheet enterprise design features highly visual, customizable dashboards; unique grading; mobility; reusability; multi-lingual support; and flexible licensing.
"Enact helps companies aggregate and analyze quality data from all production processes in a single standardized format,” said Senior Industry Analyst Sankara Narayanan. “Organizations can look at the data from a site, regional, consolidated site, or division level, even all the way up to the corporate level.” Components of Enact's enterprise design that enables this visibility and intelligence include its centralized engine and unified data repository, he said. “This centralized engine connects every site to the same, singular database in Microsoft Azure to allow an organization to standardize across many sites and achieve consistency."
Enact has an intuitive, role-based dashboard that can be used without requiring configuration. The dashboard self-populates and is designed to display details relevant to specific users based on their roles, which include security permissions and relevance to their device. In addition, users can “favorite” the information that is of interest to them or information they use most often. The grading feature provides an actionable site metric for each critical element to keep track of ongoing operations and prioritize resources and investment allotments.
Enact also delivers unique mobility and responsiveness, the company said, explaining that to render an enriched user experience, the solution incorporates a responsive design and adapts to the resolution of all types of devices, such as computer screens, tablets, and smartphones, and its built-in, multi-lingual support makes it ideal for global, large-scale deployments. Enact's help system and interface is available in an expanding array of languages, and the entire system can be adapted for additional languages.
"Using InfinityQS's unique Excellence Loop philosophy, companies can transform their businesses by reducing costs, increasing profitability, and making better and quicker operational decisions. The concept of an Excellence Loop starts with enterprise visibility, with the ability to see data from various work areas and using that data to gain insights for optimizing operations," Narayanan said. "With its functionality-rich platform and focus on innovation, InfinityQS has clearly established a leading position for itself in the market."
