Ask anyone what quality means and they’ll likely describe an experience: a product that works reliably, fits well, and lasts.
But that experience is not an accident. It is the outcome of hundreds of engineering decisions across design, manufacturing, and inspection — and every one of those decisions rests on data.
When companies optimize the cost of quality, they typically focus on *what* is produced and *how*: fewer defects, tighter processes, better equipment. All valuable.
Yet the integrity of the data behind each quality decision is rarely examined with the same rigor. And here is the reality check: results are transcribed by hand. Data arrives from different systems in different formats. Some was captured incorrectly at the source — and the issue often surfaces only once it has become costly.
