Addressing Improvement Opportunities at Many Levels
Quality professionals in a manufacturing environment have a challenging assignment: ensure the quality of the products you deliver and continuously improve the quality of the processes that produce those products.
GainSeeker is uniquely equipped to help quality professionals ensure product quality while addressing the bigger issues of process control, process improvement and process design.
Product Control

A company’s earliest quality efforts usually focus on protecting the customer from receiving bad product. This is commonly achieved with a final inspection process that separates bad product from good product.
GainSeeker makes it easy to collect and store this failure data from your product inspections. You can track not only the number of good and bad units, but also the reasons why product failed inspection.
More importantly, GainSeeker's® analysis tools help you study this data and discover which types of defects occur most frequently and cost you the most money.

Over time, you may find that product inspections at earlier steps in the process can help to reduce the number of more costly defects at the end of the process. Here too, GainSeeker makes it easy to track and analyze data from in-process inspections.
Process Control
As your quality efforts pay off in reduced defect costs and consistently low defect levels, your next move may be to implement variable SPC. This allows you to measure and track critical product features at chosen time intervals, using sample sizes much smaller than those needed with attribute SPC.
 |
Not only are your inspection costs reduced by decreasing the size and frequency of samples inspected, but this new type of data also helps you to evaluate the stability of your process. This allows you to immediately recognize small process changes before they become big enough to produce bad product. GainSeeker's® real-time statistical alarms help you prevent bad product from reaching your customers because you control the process, not the product.
Many organizations spend a lot of time and money designing and maintaining bullet-proof process control systems. GainSeeker provides this level of process control without the high cost of in-house design and maintenance.
Process Optimization and Design Optimization
Achieving process control is an important milestone in your quality improvement efforts, but even more opportunities exist for reducing waste and saving money: Process Optimization and Design Optimization.
Unlike most SPC systems, GainSeeker stores your data in a central repository that is easy to manage and use across the organization. The data you have collected for Process Control now becomes a rich corporate asset which can be analyzed to uncover sources of variation in your process.

GainSeeker's® unique Analysis Wizards make it easy to find these underlying sources of process variation by automatically comparing groups of data. These wizards provide a robust foundation for your process and design optimization efforts.
Tools for Reporting and Sharing Data
When using data to make decisions about process changes, you shouldn’t have to spend a lot of time and effort to present and share that data with colleagues or customers.
GainSeeker provides a wealth of charts, reports, statistics, and other tools for data analysis and presentation. You can even add to these options by creating new report formats and incorporating MINITAB charts into GainSeeker's® list of analysis options.
Any charts or reports that you create frequently can be saved and refreshed with the most recent data. This greatly simplifies the task of generating regular reports—such as those needed at the end of each week, month, or quarter.
GainSeeker’s® Send To menus make it easy to send any combination of charts and reports to your e-mail program, advanced statistical applications such as MINITAB or JMP, a web page on your corporate intranet or internet web site, and many other destinations.
These powerful, flexible and time-saving options for presenting and sharing your quality data are one more reason why GainSeeker Suite is the solution of choice for quality professionals.
