INTEGRATED CAQ WITH SAP QM
SAP QM is a fully featured CAQ System
that offers many advantages for your company
INTEGRATED CAQ WITH SAP QM
DHC specialises in the conceptual design and implementation of CAQ systems based on the SAP QM and PM modules:
- Quality planning (APQP, FMEA, PLP, inspection plan),
- Quality control (inspection order results recording)
- Quality evaluation and release of the produced goods,
- Quality reports,
- Deviation and complaint management,
- Audit management,
- Test equipment management and
- Plant maintenance
CAQ integration with SAP reduces IT costs, improves the informational content of data, accelerates decision-making and creates greater transparency throughout the entire supply chain – from goods receipt and production to sales and distribution. Unlike external CAQ systems, no interface is required to the SAP modules PP, MM, WM and SD, since SAP QM and PM are directly integrated into the logistics processes.
This also reduces additional licence fees and maintenance effort. SAP QM functionality is being continuously developed and optimised by SAP. This protects your investment by ensuring the future viability of the system.

Business Case
In which specific scenarios should I integrate quality control and quality assurance into a SAP system? How complex is SAP QM in actual fact – and is it really ‘user-unfriendly’? Why would SAP QM be the right solution for my business? There are many questions that need to be addressed to evaluate the pros and cons of a CAQ system. We work with you to establish your objectives, describe the potential that can be expected, assess the risks and calculate the project budget.
Scoping
Together, we identify the potential fields of application for your CAQ system and plan all of the project steps necessary for a successful implementation. This phase includes assessing your know-how requirements, and the internal and external personnel needed by the project. We provide you with a timetable for the project steps and an estimate of the expected costs.
Proof of Concept
What functionality will be cost-effective? And what degree of automation is advisable for which types of production? We look at your processes in the supply chain and use these to determine the associated requirements. We then compare these with the functionality offered by SAP QM and present the results as a decision document for your management team. Ultimately, the future CAQ system must provide you with support for the time- and resource-optimised planning and execution of controls, as well as the collection, analysis and management of your inspection sample data – and all of this while conforming to legal requirements
As a SAP QM specialist, we work with you to prepare the SAP-specific functional specification, configure the system, complete production planning and handle production cutover for the CAQ solution with SAP QM.
We specialise in particular in the development of Analytical and Functional Apps. This makes it significantly easier for you to deploy your CAQ system as part of a digitalisation strategy. Our many years of experience with SAP QM – and particularly with integrating other SAP modules – provide you with expert help for mastering your QM challenges.
Our implementation work can also include the following services:
- Conceptual design and programming of role-specific QM apps
- Conceptual design and programming of interfaces
- Programming of additional functions
- Programming of additional data fields
