- Complaint management (8D process)
- PPAP / initial sampling (VDA / AIAG)
- APQP project management
- Corrective & preventive actions
iqs Quality Center — Complete Quality Control Lifecycle
The iqs Quality Center covers every quality assurance level — from planning and production testing to the evaluation of quality indicators. Its modular structure allows organisations to deploy the modules they need and expand into a complete QMS as their quality programme matures.
SPC & Statistical Process Control
Real-time production monitoring with SPC control charts — detecting process deviations before they produce defects. The iqs SPC Control Center provides clearly structured, filterable overviews of machines, tools, production areas and their assigned parts. Compare control charts side by side, generate DFQ files for qs-STAT analysis, and meet ISO 9001 and IATF 16949 SPC requirements.
Inspection Planning & Control Plans
Inspection planning connected directly to FMEA and special characteristics — ensuring that the characteristics identified as critical in the PFMEA are reflected in the inspection plan and control plan without manual reconciliation. The new AIAG Control Plan requirements (2024) are fully supported, including digital management of control plan data across global manufacturing locations.
Audit Management
Manage all audit types — internal quality audits, supplier audits, process audits, system audits and product audits — in a single structured platform. Audit planning, checklist management, findings documentation, corrective action assignment and follow-up tracking are all connected. Audit history provides evidence for ISO 9001, IATF 16949 and AS9100 certification maintenance.
Complaint Management & 8D
Structured complaint management following the 8D problem-solving methodology — from initial containment through root cause analysis, corrective action, preventive action and lessons-learned documentation. Integration with Causelink RCA software enables deep causal analysis directly from a customer complaint record, with solutions tracked back through the complaint to verify effectiveness.
PPAP & Initial Sampling
Efficient initial sample inspection reports compliant with VDA, PPAP (AIAG) and customer-specific requirements — including inspection plans based on drawing characteristics. Coordinate PPAP submissions with suppliers through the supply chain module, track submission status and manage customer approval in a single connected workflow that eliminates the email and spreadsheet complexity of traditional PPAP management.
Quality KPIs & Action Management
Configurable quality KPI dashboards provide management visibility across all quality dimensions — defect rates, audit findings, corrective action closure rates, supplier performance and SPC capability indices. Action management connects KPI signals to corrective and preventive actions, closing the loop between quality monitoring and improvement. KPI data feeds directly into APQP project tracking.
How The Mantua Group Implements iqs QMS
TMG connects QMS implementation to operational reliability practice — ensuring quality management systems generate data that drives maintenance strategy improvement, not just compliance documentation.
QMS Configuration & Module Selection
TMG assesses your quality management maturity and production environment to select and configure the iqs Quality Center modules that deliver the highest return. We design the module architecture to connect with your existing FMEA models in e1ns or IQ-Software, Causelink RCA investigations, and Isograph RAMS analysis — building a genuinely integrated quality system rather than a collection of isolated tools.
SPC Setup & Statistical Training
TMG configures SPC control charts, capability studies and measurement system analysis within the iqs platform, and delivers statistical process control training to your quality engineers and production teams. We establish rational subgrouping, control limits and reaction plans aligned to your process characteristics and customer requirements.
Audit Programme Design
TMG designs your audit programme within iqs — defining audit types, frequency, checklists and competence requirements aligned to ISO 9001, IATF 16949 or AS9100. We connect audit findings directly to corrective action workflows and quality KPIs, ensuring that audit outputs drive measurable improvement rather than compliance theatre.
QMS-to-Reliability Integration
TMG’s specialist capability connects iqs quality data to operational reliability analysis — feeding complaint and defect data into Causelink RCA investigations, linking quality event trends to Isograph Weibull failure analysis, and connecting corrective actions to RCMCost maintenance strategy review. This integration is the foundation of genuine Reliability-Quality-Maintenance alignment.
