Camstar's real-time monitoring and analysis of multi-tier supplier, manufacturing, warranty and return data will provide "Closed-loop Quality Execution" for PTC's Windchill® Quality Lifecycle Management (QLM) solution. With PTC's Quality Planning capabilities and Quality Improvement processes, global manufacturers will have a clearer understanding of product quality performance, and be able to take action to improve both current and next generation products.
