Discover Aligni's intuitive Quality Control feature, designed to streamline workflows, improve operational efficiency, and help manufacturers track, manage, and resolve issues seamlessly—available for free until July 1, 2025.
PORTLAND, Ore., April 29, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Aligni, a leading provider of MRP and PLM software for SMB and electronic manufacturers, is excited to announce the launch of its intuitive Quality Control (QC) feature, now available for all customers. This new functionality is designed to streamline quality management and integrate seamlessly with existing workflows, empowering teams to improve operational efficiency, reduce defects, and maintain consistent product quality across production cycles.
Transforming Quality Control for Modern Manufacturing
In today's fast-paced manufacturing environment, quality control is essential to ensure defect-free products, operational efficiency, and customer satisfaction. Aligni's QC feature offers a fresh, more collaborative approach to quality management—moving beyond traditional, ad-hoc solutions. With a focus on three core objectives—enhancing collaboration, documenting process outcomes, and aggregating results for analytics—Aligni's Quality Control feature provides manufacturers with the tools to address root causes, optimize processes, and ensure materials meet strict quality standards.
Built for Collaboration
Aligni's QC feature enables efficient communication and coordination across production, engineering, design, procurement, and quality teams. By integrating seamlessly with Aligni's item master, build schedule, and procurement activities, users can easily track the progress of quality control discussions, decisions, and updates in real-time. Teams stay on the same page through centralized collaboration tools, ensuring faster decision-making and a smoother, more efficient workflow. Automatic documentation ensures compliance and provides a reliable digital paper trail for future reference.
"Aligni QC keeps our quality management streamlined and organized. It tracks issues and resolutions by build, helping us pinpoint problems and address the root cause. Plus, team discussions and resolutions are well-documented for future reference," said Ray A., a hardware engineer at Aligni customer Opal Kelly Incorporated.
Streamlined Workflow Integration
Aligni's Quality Control functionality integrates directly with day-to-day manufacturing processes, connecting design, planning, production, inventory, and supply chain. The result is a seamless flow of information across all departments, with real-time visibility into material status, defects, and inventory conditions. With built-in tools for quarantining, binning, labeling, and inventory management, quality assessments are streamlined, reducing errors and enhancing inventory control.
"The QC function in Aligni has improved our efficiency by consolidating data capture into one platform, eliminating redundant apps. We can now trace the flow of assemblies in real time, and the communication tools allow us to keep everything organized and traceable," said Jenn J., a buyer/planner at Opal Kelly Incorporated.
The feature's simple but powerful workflow is designed for both small teams and growing organizations. From the moment materials enter the system to the final quality assessment, teams can track progress, document defects, and sort materials with ease. New quarantine zones ensure that defective inventory is properly segregated, adhering to ISO standards while maintaining smooth operations.
Simple for Small Teams, Flexible for Larger Teams
Aligni's QC feature is flexible and highly configurable to fit any manufacturing operation. Whether you're dealing with complex multi-stage processes or simpler workflows, Aligni enables manufacturers to define defect categories, severities, and track data related to root causes, vendor performance, and compliance. Built-in best practices and sensible defaults ensure companies can get up and running quickly, without unnecessary setup time.
Pricing and Availability
Aligni Quality Control is available for free for all PLM and MRP plans until July 1, 2025. Subsequently, quality control is subject to Aligni's usage-based pricing with additional details available online.
