Pratt & Whitney Canada Driving Quality Improvement thru Higher Visibility & Responsiveness Value from the SAP xmii Solution: Savings from Quality Cost Avoidance will be realized in six major areas: internal scrap rework & repair lower supplier scrap resulting in lower material prices reduction in QN (quality notification) items reduction in warranty expense caused by manufacturing escapes improvement in engine retest ratio, and shop floor productivity improvement. SAP s xmii is a tool that will enable us to achieve roughly a $ 14 million saving per year in quality cost avoidance. In addition, we will avoid costly engine escapes at the end each of which could potentially cost us half a million dollars. How many are we going to avoid, we cannot know. Statistically speaking, if we avoid one, it would pay for the system by itself. Will reduce the probability of significant customer escapes*- a major customer escape can cost in excess of $ 500K The estimated annual savings are of $14MM per year at full implementation Claude Poliquin, Business Development Manager- Quality Presentation at the SAP xmii User Group Conference, Philadelphia, October 2005 * Customer escape is a defective aircraft engine or component delivered to the customer SAP AG 2006, SAP QM Overview and SAP xmii, Denver 2006 p.27
