(USA), (May 01, 2011) –A world-class manufacturer of advanced electronics, avionics and aerospace products based in the Northwest USA, has selected IntraStage’s Statistical Process Control (SPC) and Test Data Collection software solution for deployment at their facility.

As product quality has shifted to become a primary business focus in aerospace electronics companies, so has the definition in what “quality” means.  Quality today means augmenting the power of traditional SPC with activities such as ensuring visibility into yields, being able to link failures with repair information and having a collaborative platform upon which all stakeholders (R&D, Manufacturing, Supply Chain Contract Manufacturers etc) can access the test data to quickly root cause issues. The foundation that enables these activities is having a web-based Test Data Collection and Database software solution which is real-time and scalable.

“The biggest barrier to using SPC and getting visibility into yields is the sheer collection and aggregation of this test data into a form which can be easily mined for performing SPC calculations. Previously, in the complex manufacturing environment of aerospace electronics, this was done manually with spreadsheets, which can cost days of productivity,” said Patrick Kelly, CEO of IntraStage. “With IntraStage this manual task is cut down from weeks to seconds and enables a whole suite of new insights into manufacturing environments.”

“We forward to providing some solid business results with regards to productivity gains, increased yields and manufacturing rework with our new partner, “said Patrick Kelly, CEO of IntraStage.
