Tired of spending more than 50% of your time building graphs and reports?
Building graphs and reports can be a monotonous and tedious job. It takes up numerous hours per day, and your other responsibilities keep piling up. Supplier change requests, process qualifications, process validations, and capability analyses all continue to accumulate.
You need a new and tested productivity tool that can save you time to focus on more critical tasks. Use the new PQ-it macro developed for Minitab statistical software. It reduces the time spent in statistical evaluations for production capabilities of single/multiple parts with single/multiple features.
The gift of time
By using the PQ-it macro, you can complete your analysis more than five times faster than with manual construction. The average time saved on analyzing one 100-feature part vs. manual analysis is 5 hours. Even a simple 5-feature product analysis can save you at least 15 minutes.
Save up to 5 hours on a single product
