SAN DIEGO, CA, March 28, 2011 —IntraStage, a provider of Test Data Management and Analytics software solutions, today announced a partnership with Pilgrim Software, a world-leading provider of Enterprise Risk, Compliance and QualityManagement (ERCQM) software. This combination of best-in-class software will allow companies that design and manufacture electronics to seamlessly integrate IntraStage’s Analytics on manufacturing floor Nonconformances with Pilgrim’s flexible and robust CAPA (Corrective and Preventive Action) software workflow. As a result, companies will be able to react swiftly and precisely to failures so that customers receive product shipments on-time and with confidence that the products are of high quality.
As the complexity of the design and manufacture of electronic products grows in every industry from Aerospace to Wireless to Medical Devices, so does the complexity of testing needed to deliver products to market. This has caused an explosion of test data volume, with Test Engineers and Managers scrambling to find ways to manage and provide test data in a format useful to the Quality and Operations team.
“We have definitely seen an increase in attention to Kaizen and other continuous improvement initiatives within Quality and Operations,” said Harsh Wanigaratne, Vice President of Marketing at IntraStage. “Driven by need of the end customer, Quality organizations are putting more emphasis on reacting swiftly to yield problems, requiring them to look for improved ways to perform investigations and root-cause analysis in a more standardized fashion. Combining IntraStage’s Analytics with Pilgrim’s CAPA management system, delivers a closed-loop solution and raises the visibility of quality from the shop floor to the enterprise.”
Pilgrim, a world leader in Risk, Compliance & Quality Management software, has continued to innovate and reduce manufacturing costs for its customer base through its ERCQM platform which includes Nonconformance, CAPA, Business Intelligence, SOP Management and other solutions.
“By integrating our Risk, Compliance & Quality Management Solution with IntraStage, the ability to capture deeper analytics from the manufacturing floor will give enterprises not only a rapid method to capture and correct those failures, but a wider view of the entire manufacturing environment,” said Prashanth Rajendran, Chief Operating Officer for Pilgrim Software. “This combination of Pilgrim and IntraStage software will now allow senior level managers of an enterprise a more complete view of product quality, enabling better yields, reduced returns and faster time-to-market.”
