Define products and suppliers
Identify product codes, types, status, supplier approval state, and supplier risk for the initial scope.
Implementation
Start with one released plan and one complete evidence trail.
Move quickly without separating inspection from corrective action. Establish governed products, suppliers, plans, roles, and the closure rule together.
Implementation sequence
From governed inputs to verified correction.
Each stage produces the controlled context needed by the next. The first useful milestone is a real failure carried through effectiveness review.
Set inspection plans
Release revision-controlled receiving, in-process, or final plans with the correct sample size and product link.
Separate quality responsibility
Assign inspector, engineer, approver, and auditor access before corrective work starts.
Run the complete quality loop
Save an inspection, contain its failure, approve root cause, complete the action, and record effectiveness evidence.
Information to prepare
A compact quality starting pack.
Begin with the identifiers, released requirements, responsibility, and evidence rules already used by the operating team.
Product scopeProduct names, codes, types, lifecycle status, and the requirements subject to inspection.
Supplier contextSupplier codes, approval status, risk, and which inspections or products each supplier affects.
Inspection controlPlan name, revision, sample size, inspection type, acceptance criteria, and released state.
CAPA policySeverity rules, containment ownership, approved analysis methods, action types, and due-date control.
Effectiveness ruleReview timing, accountable reviewer, acceptable evidence, and outcomes that require more action.
Go-live proof
A saved process, not a quality dashboard.
Implementation is useful when a real inspection result produces linked containment, root-cause approval, accountable CAPA, and a later evidence-based effectiveness judgment.
First operating milestone
Evidence completeOne real quality event is saved in ERP.ai from source inspection through objective effectiveness evidence.
Set up the first complete quality loop.
Start using Quality Management in ERP.ai, then configure the real product, plan, and approval policy.
