CoreGrit for Automotive & Auto Components

Connect production, inspection, machine, traceability, maintenance and supplier data around the part. Understand defect, rework and stoppage cause, then act on the station, supplier lot, maintenance or hold and release.

The application

Connect production, inspection, machine, traceability, maintenance and supplier data around the part. Understand defect, rework and stoppage cause, then act on the station, supplier lot, maintenance or hold and release.

CoreGrit for Automotive & Auto Components is the CoreGrit application for vehicle and component manufacturing. Production, inspection, machine, traceability, maintenance, supplier and ERP records are held against the same part and station, so defect, rework and stoppage cause are traceable and the corrective action carries an owner. Where plating is part of the process, the Electroplating application is configured alongside it.

Automotive Manufacturing Operations & Quality

  • Plan versus actual
  • Station loss and rework
  • Part and supplier traceability
  • Downtime and delivery risk

The problem

Where line value leaks

  1. Plan versus actual explained only at the end of the shift

    The shortfall is known, but the station, machine or material condition that caused it is reconstructed after the fact.

  2. Station loss and rework without a traceable cause

    Rework is recorded at the end of the line rather than attributed to the station and condition that produced it.

  3. PPM and complaint risk visible after dispatch

    A suspect part or supplier lot surfaces once it has left the plant, so containment is broader and more expensive than it needs to be.

  4. Downtime and delivery risk assessed separately

    Maintenance, production and planning each hold part of the risk, and no view puts them against the same commitment.

The capability

What CoreGrit puts in their hands

Line and supplier view

Line, station, part and supplier lot state in one operating picture across the plant.

Quality and root-cause correlation

Defect, rework and stoppage correlated with station, machine, material and supplier lot for the same period.

Traceable corrective action

Station, supplier lot, maintenance or hold-and-release action assigned, escalated and verified against the part genealogy.

Connect → Contextualise → Detect → Decide → Improve

Inside AUTOMOTIVE

Four capability areas, deployed together or one at a time

Start with the module that covers your biggest gap and extend across the layer as the pilot proves out.

  1. Line and Station Visibility

    Line, station and machine state with part genealogy attached.

  2. Quality and PPM Intelligence

    Defect, rework and PPM logic calculated on trusted source data.

  3. Supplier and Material Correlation

    Quality outcomes correlated with supplier lot and material condition.

  4. Corrective Action and Closure

    Owner, due time, escalation and verified before-and-after result.

Before you ask

Common questions

Anything else is a good use of the 30-minute operational diagnostic.

Is this a separate platform from CoreGrit?

No. This is CoreGrit configured for automotive and auto components, using the same connectivity, intelligence and workflow foundation as every other sector.

How does this relate to the Electroplating application?

Where plating or surface treatment is part of your process, the Electroplating application is configured alongside this one so bath conditions and part quality sit in the same operating context.

Does it replace our MES or traceability system?

No. CoreGrit works above production, inspection, traceability, maintenance and ERP systems and adds the context, calculation and workflow layer between them and the operating decision.

How do we start?

With one line and one loss — most often station loss or rework on a specific part family. The diagnostic maps the decision gap and the value case.

What are hidden operational losses costing you?

Start with one process, one problem and the data already available. We will help map the decision gaps and the value case.
