SigmaQuest says its SigmaSure Enterprise attempts to reduce defects and corrective action cycle times by providing real-time access and insight into product and process quality information.

World-class manufacturers and their suppliers are increasingly seeing the need for real-time comprehensive solutions for assuring consistent product quality across their supply chains, said Nader Fathi, CEO of SigmaQuest. By using SigmaSure, these companies are reducing cost and cycle times by taking the variability out of supplier quality.
