摘要:
A computer-based method and system for facilitating production changes in an extended enterprise via a network environment. The system includes a manufacturing enterprise system including a host system operating a web server, a data storage device in communication with the host system, and at least one terminal for accessing the host system. The manufacturing enterprise system runs on a network that is coupled to the Internet and is accessible to an outside enterprise or trading partner identified with having proper access permissions. The server executes a set of programs for the process and product change notification application of the present invention. PCN notices and EOL requests are inputted into the manufacturing enterprise system via the process and product change notification application where required data are supplied, destination resources of affected parties are determined and decisions are calculated according to these inputs.

A system for facilitating supplier qualification and quality management functions includes an application executing on a host system and a web-based user interface provided by the application, the web-based user interface collaboratively enabling qualification of suppliers, parts, and technologies over a network. The system also includes a shared data repository and a workstation in communication with the host system, and a supplier in communication with the host system via the user interface and network. The collaborative qualification includes acquiring supplier capabilities, part data, and supplier technology data from a collaborative source via the user interface. The collaborative qualification also includes storing acquired data in the shared data repository, and performing quality management functions via the user interface and shared data repository. The quality management functions include: managing changes to a supplier product; managing process changes proposed by a supplier; and assessing quality metrics provided by a supplier.
摘要:
An exemplary embodiment of the invention relates to an integrated computer-based method and system for facilitating supplier qualification and quality management. This computer-based method and system includes a host system receiving a request from a user system to execute supplier qualification and quality management software, executing the requested software at the host system, sending results of the software execution to the user system, receiving input at the host system from the user system in response to the software execution, and providing the user system with output generated as a result of executing the software. The supplier qualification and quality management software includes a selection module, a qualification module and a quality module.

An exemplary embodiment of the invention relates to a method for facilitating a preferred parts plan for an enterprise over a computer network utilizing a parts review process tool. The method comprises: receiving a bill of material from a client system that includes a non-preferred part; storing the bill of material in a bill of material review database; periodically searching and extracting non-preferred parts records from the bill of material review database; importing the non-preferred parts records into a deviation database; evaluating risk factors associated with non-preferred parts usage; developing an action plan to mitigate risks in using the non-preferred parts; developing a preferred parts strategy for use in minimizing requests to use non-preferred parts; and communicating the preferred parts strategy over a computer network to enterprise client systems.
摘要:
Advanced statistical detection of emerging trends in a process is disclosed, based on a Repeated Weighted Geometric Cumulative Sum analysis, which may be combined with time window-based estimation of proportions and related thresholds. Threshold derivation and significance computation is based on parallel simulation runs with power-exponential tail approximations. A battery of tests using the statistical theory of sequential analysis and change-point theory in combination with targets is used to evaluate non-conforming conditions in a process. Trends in fall-out rates are detected based on non-time-to-failure data that corresponds to counts of failures in consecutive time periods, with possibility of delayed input.
摘要:
An asymmetric approach is used for evaluating process control data, whereby one approach is used for determining entry into the emerging life cycle phase (i.e., presence of a new defect) and a different approach is used for detecting entry into the other life cycle phases such as cresting and recovering. An evidence curve is created from observed instance data for a particular defect, and the slope of this evidence curve is analyzed programmatically by applying one or more tests, in combination with sequential time-reversed estimation, to determine return-to-normal conditions with a desired level of confidence.

A computer data processing system executing a method for selecting an auction methodology for a buyer/supplier procurement process, wherein the method comprises determining an auction scope in the data processing system, determining an auction interaction in the data processing system, determining an auction control in the data processing system, determining an auction pricing in the data processing system, determining a set of auction closing rules in the data processing system, determining an auction iteration in the data processing system, and selecting an auction methodology based on the auction scope, the auction interaction, the auction control, the auction pricing, the auction closing rules, and the auction iteration.
摘要:
Determining a suitable target for an entity (such as a product) in a process control environment, based on observed process control data. A preferred embodiment organizes data in a hierarchical structure designed for automating the target-setting process; derives target “yardsticks” for various components based on this data structure; employs techniques to estimate proportions using sample-size-based trimming in conjunction with bias-correction techniques (where appropriate); and derives targets based on combining yardsticks and confidence regions for parameters that characterize component quality
