Warranty Management Software for Efficient Return Handling | Böhme & Weihs

Prepare and Analyze Field Data

Reduced warranty costs thanks to early detection of causes

Our warranty management software, CASQ-it WM controls the entire workflow for handling field returns. Incoming data from various customer formats is standardized into a unified format. Incomplete or incorrect claims are automatically filtered out. In the next step, the software runs a plausibility check to identify unjustified warranty claims. Only complete and valid field reports move on to trend line analyses.

Trend line analyses provide insights into product durability, narrow down the period of defect occurrence, and enable targeted root cause investigation — allowing you to intervene in processes with immediate corrective actions. Integrated effectiveness analyses monitor the success of your actions. CASQ-it WM brings transparency to your warranty management, improving your negotiation position with customers and reducing warranty costs.

CASQ-it WM can operate as a standalone solution or seamlessly integrate with other CASQ-it modules — providing a tailored solution to meet your specific requirements.

Data Harmonization

With its automatic data harmonization feature, CASQ-it WM consolidates all field return data from various formats into a unified standard. At the push of a button, you get a reliable database for:

  • Plausibility checks
  • Field data analyses
  • Effectiveness evaluations
  • Failure forecasts

Your predefined settings guide the import of purchased parts lists. Country-specific details, such as different date formats or foreign currencies, are automatically detected and standardized.

During the import process, CASQ-it WM checks the data for incompleteness and formatting errors. You decide whether to correct the affected data sets or reject them immediately.

BW-Ziffer-2-varPlausibility Analysis of Purchased Parts Lists

CASQ-it WM identifies unjustified warranty claims: Each data set is checked for plausibility and validity. You can immediately spot duplicate claims, incomplete or contradictory information, or field failures that fall outside the warranty period.

The powerful analysis tools in CASQ-it WM reliably detect irregularities within your purchased parts lists. To this end, the system dynamically combines your data in different variations. Using filters for:

  • Countries
  • Supplied plants
  • Assembly region
  • Engine type
  • Chassis number
  • Model year ...
you can continuously adjust your focus. This allows you to identify repeat claims, interactions with third-party components, regional or seasonal defect patterns, and even potential installation errors. With CASQ-it WM, you unlock the full informational potential of field return data for your warranty management.

Diagnosis and NTF Process

Diagnostic inspections — distinguishing between standard and stress testing — within the CASQ-it inspection modules support you in evaluating field returns. For potential initiation of a No-Trouble-Found (NTF) process, CASQ-it CMEA serves as a decision-making aid:
Here, all information about the affected part and possible root causes is readily available. Acting like a knowledge database, CASQ-it CMEA consolidates your experiences and provides the foundation for in-depth root cause analysis.

BW-Ziffer-4-varTrend Line Analysis

Since CASQ-it WM filters out implausible and unjustified warranty claims, you get a solid foundation for assessing your field quality. Failure trend line diagrams based on VDA 3.2 display the frequency of defects in individual products over a specific usage period or operational cycles, referencing the production date.

This supports active field monitoring and enables targeted root cause analysis, allowing you to implement effective corrective, adaptive and preventive actions.

Effectiveness Analyses and Forecasts

Effectiveness analyses provide long-term monitoring of the success of your corrective and preventive actions. This is highly flexible, allowing, for example, comparisons between different parts within a product family or between different model years. Additionally, forecasts offer insights into future field failures — enabling you to proactively manage spare parts supply.
