  • Digital Maturity Survey for the Automotive Industry
This survey measures your company’s ability to manage Customer Demand (EDI), Production Agility, and Compliance with High-Quality Standards. (Scoring for Response Options: 1 = Never/Manual, 5 = Fully/Integrated)
This section measures the speed at which you manage requests from OEMs and the level of synchronization with your supply chain.
A1. Is EDI (Schedule/Order) data from OEM customers automatically and error-free integrated into your production planning system?
A2. Are JIT (Just-In-Time) or JIS (Just-In-Sequence) delivery orders automatically integrated into your shipping and logistics processes?
A3. Are supplier orders automatically planned for future dates according to customer forecasts and updated on a regular basis?
A4. Are shipping documents (ASN) automatically generated and transmitted to the customer portal after a material or product shipment?
A5. Are your inventory levels continuously exceeding or falling below the system-defined safety stock levels based on demand variations and customer forecasts?
This section measures your shop floor processes, lean manufacturing practices, and the management of your critical assets (machines/molds).
B1. Does the system capture actual time spent and actual scrap/waste quantities for each production order in real time?
B2. Are machine and personnel capacities, along with mold lifetimes and maintenance stoppages, automatically considered in your production scheduling?
B3. Does the system automatically plan maintenance for critical molds and fixtures according to the number of parts produced (production cycles)?
B4. Does the system notify the planning team in real time when a bottleneck occurs at a shift or workstation?
B5. Does the system regularly determine actions to reduce setup times based on analysis of historical production data?
This section measures product quality and traceability throughout the entire lifecycle, a critical area in the automotive industry.
C1. Does the system automatically block incoming raw material lots from entering production based on Quality Control (QC) results?
C2. In the event of a customer return (NC), is it possible to instantly trace all raw material lots, workstations, and operators used in producing the affected part?
C3. Does the system centrally manage all documents required for APQP (Advanced Product Quality Planning) and PPAP (Production Part Approval Process), ensuring revision control?
C4. Does the system use Statistical Process Control (SPC) to automatically analyze defect rates of finished products and proactively identify process deviations?
C5. In the event of a failure during the warranty period, is it possible to associate the failure’s cost and cause with the corresponding production lot and quality control records?
