  2. Session Objectives • This session will review the Command Alkon tools available to manage the quality and production processes in international markets • Part of the session will help you understand new COMMANDqc features that are of particular interest to countries outside North America • Part of the session will help you understand COMMANDseries features that are of particular interest to countries outside North America that support Production & Quality Management • Learn about European standardization and how those concepts can be extended to any country • Understand the inherent problems of applying Production and Quality Management (COMMANDqc, COMMANDseries, etc.) in different countries • Learn about a few special features that have been developed for individual international customers Production & Quality Management for the International Marketplace (QC-007)

  3. Production Management Production Management: Management and control of the Ready Mix production process throughout the day-to-day business lifecycle of quality management, order and dispatch control, and production control; includes tolerance management, user notification, and various cross-functional tools Production & Quality Management for the International Marketplace (QC-007)

  4. Benefits of Production Management • Controls day-to-day activity in compliance with your company’s quality and process standard • Efficient and effective identification of mix design and batching trends, issues and potential causes • Improves confidence and data integrity without micro-managing your plant operations • Minimize risk and cost by controlling the quality of your products (i.e. out-of-tolerance loads) • Identifies plant or other product related issues so they can be addressed before they negatively impact the business • Improved accuracy and consistency of concrete batching • Management by exception and proper cumulative reporting reduces the need to inspect each batch and identifies root cause Production & Quality Management for the International Marketplace (QC-007)

  5. Session Objectives • This session will review the Command Alkon tools available to manage the quality and production processes in international markets • Part of the session will help you understand new COMMANDqc features that are of particular interest to countries outside North America • Where and how is COMMANDqc being used? • What COMMANDqc features that make it adaptable to different markets? • If I am a U.S. or Canadian customer, why do I care? • Learn about European standardization and how those concepts can be extended to any country • Understand the inherent problems of applying Production and Quality Management (COMMANDqc, COMMANDseries, etc.) in different countries • Learn about a few special features that have been developed for individual international customers • Part of the session will help you understand COMMANDseries features that are of particular interest to countries outside North America that support Production & Quality Management • Learn more about overall product integration between COMMANDqc, COMMANDseries, and COMMANDbatch that give you greater business and process flexibility Production & Quality Management for the International Marketplace (QC-007)
