Executive overview
The SCO read-only thesis, pointed at quality: yield, defects, cost of quality, nonconformances, and supplier and customer quality - observed across your QMS and MES to show where quality leaks money, not to control production.
What this is, and what it is not. A preview of a planned domain, not a live product. In production it would sit read-only on top of your QMS, MES, and supplier-quality systems - reading quality records and surfacing yield, cost of quality, and nonconformance trends. It does not control production, release or hold product, or close CAPAs; it gives quality leaders a portfolio view. All figures here are synthetic.
First-pass yield & plan synthetic
Cost of quality breakdown synthetic
Signals worth attention
Synthetic preview. In production, derived read-only from QMS, MES, and supplier-quality systems with SHA-256-anchored lineage, as in SCO.
Defects & yield
First-pass yield and defect rate - where in the process quality is lost.
Defect rate trend (PPM) synthetic
Yield by line
Synthetic, aggregated. Reads yield and defect data read-only from MES/QMS; PPM = defective parts per million.
Cost of quality
What poor quality costs, split into prevention, appraisal, and failure - and where it is going up.
COPQ bridge ($M) synthetic
COPQ by category read-only
| Category | Cost | Trend |
|---|---|---|
| External failure (returns, warranty) | $2.6M | Down |
| Internal failure (scrap, rework) | $3.1M | Down |
| Appraisal (inspection, test) | $1.8M | Flat |
| Prevention (training, planning) | $0.9M | Up |
Synthetic, aggregated. Reads quality-cost data read-only; COPQ = prevention + appraisal + internal + external failure.
Nonconformances
Nonconformance reports by source and type, and how fast they are dispositioned.
NCRs by source
Top nonconformance types read-only
| Type | Count | Line |
|---|---|---|
| Dimensional out-of-tolerance | 14 | Sensor |
| Surface / finish defect | 9 | Housing |
| Supplier material defect | 12 | Incoming |
| Assembly error | 7 | Assembly |
Synthetic, aggregated. Reads NCR records read-only; AssetShop surfaces and trends, it does not disposition product.
CAPA
Corrective and preventive actions - status, overdue items, and whether they actually work.
CAPA status
Synthetic, aggregated. Reads CAPA status read-only; effectiveness = issues that did not recur after closure.
Supplier quality
How well suppliers deliver to spec, and which ones drive incoming defects.
Lowest-scoring suppliers read-only
| Supplier | Score | Defect PPM | Issue |
|---|---|---|---|
| Casting supplier B | 74 | 5,800 | Dimensional |
| Electronics supplier D | 79 | 4,200 | Solder defects |
| Coatings supplier | 82 | 3,100 | Finish |
| Fastener supplier | 85 | 2,400 | Plating |
Synthetic, aggregated. Reads supplier-quality and incoming-inspection data read-only.
Customer quality
Quality as the customer experiences it - complaints, returns, and warranty.
Returns trend (% of shipments) synthetic
Complaints by cause read-only
| Cause | Share | Product |
|---|---|---|
| Performance / function | 34% | Sensor |
| Premature failure | 26% | Actuator |
| Cosmetic | 18% | Housing |
| Documentation / packaging | 12% | All |
| Other | 10% | All |
Synthetic, aggregated. Reads complaint, RMA, and warranty data read-only.
Audits & findings
Internal and external quality audits and the findings still open.
Findings by area
Synthetic, aggregated. Reads audit and finding records read-only; AssetShop tracks closure, it does not conduct the audit.
Standards & compliance
Status against the quality standards that matter, and certification expirations.
Standards & certifications read-only
| Standard | Status | Next audit |
|---|---|---|
| ISO 9001 | Certified | Q3 (surveillance) |
| IATF 16949 (auto) | Certified | Q4 |
| ISO 14001 (env) | Expiring | Renewal due |
Synthetic, aggregated. Reads certification status read-only; this is conformance tracking, not certification.
Connectors & data
Where Quality would read from, and the posture it would read with.
Read-only. These connectors are scaffolded, not built - each reports 0/12 conformance until a tenant integration is done. In production they read quality records read-only, with SHA-256-anchored lineage. AssetShop does not control production, release or hold product, or close CAPAs; QMS and MES stay authoritative.
Quality connectors
| System | Category | Mode | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| MasterControl / ETQ | QMS | Read-only | Scaffolded 0/12 |
| MES quality module | Shop floor | Read-only | Scaffolded 0/12 |
| Supplier quality (SCAR) | Supplier | Read-only | Scaffolded 0/12 |
| Complaint / RMA system | Customer | Read-only | Scaffolded 0/12 |
Planned domain. Connectors are scaffolds; functional conformance (12/12) is verified per tenant at integration, never assumed.
Signals & opportunities
Quality signals across nonconformance, CAPA, and supplier quality - read-only from QM, MES, and LIMS. Surfaces patterns; disposition stays in your QMS. Figures synthetic (Meridian Industrials).
Detected signals synthetic
| Signal | Area | Severity | Magnitude | Conf. | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| NCR spike - Castings | Quality | high | +40% QoQ | high | QM |
| CAPA aging | Governance | medium | 6 past due | high | QM |
| Defect-type concentration | Quality | medium | 3 types 70% | med | MES |
| Supplier quality - vendor S3 | Supplier | medium | 8% reject | high | QM + AP |
| First-pass-yield drop - Line 2 | Process | medium | -3.2 pts | med | MES |

| Recurring defect - dimensional | Quality | low | 4 recurrences | med | MES |

How to read this
Synthetic. Signals computed from read-only QM / MES / LIMS data; magnitudes labeled modeled are estimates, not posted figures. Operational signal, not advice; AssetShop never writes back to source systems.
