How Moldes Mendoza Transformed Quality into a Competitive Advantage
Discover how Moldes Mendoza reduced tool validation time by more than two-thirds, streamlined inspection processes, and created new revenue opportunities with High QA.
For many manufacturers, quality processes develop incrementally over time. What starts as a practical solution often evolves into a patchwork of spreadsheets, manual data entry, disconnected documents, and labor-intensive reviews.
As customer requirements become more demanding with tighter tolerances, higher quality expectations, increased documentation requirements, and shorter delivery schedules, these manual processes can become a significant bottleneck.
That was the challenge facing Catamount Machine Works.
By implementing High QA’s quality automation platform, Catamount transformed its inspection and reporting processes, reducing manual effort, improving accuracy, standardizing quality workflows, and achieving an impressive 420% return on investment (ROI).
By automating these activities with High QA, Catamount projected they could reduce effort to:
- 90 minutes per job
- $26,250 in annual labor costs
The projected ROI was 386%.
The actual results exceeded expectations.
“We estimated a 386% ROI, and we’ve been averaging about a 420% return,” said Basgall. “It’s been a fantastic investment financially.”
About High QA
High QA is a manufacturing quality platform that connects design requirements to execution. We make the 2D drawing or 3D model the single source of truth by automatically extracting quality requirements and linking them directly to inspection planning, inspection execution,
NCRs, and quality reporting. This reduces manual interpretation and re-entry across teams and systems, improves traceability, and helps ensure parts are built and verified to spec.
