CAQ Software for End-to-End Quality Management
Plan, ensure, and improve quality throughout the entire product life cycle
That’s why the Böhme & Weihs CAQis worth it
Quality management is most effective when planning, inspection, complaints, and improvement measures are not handled in isolation from one another. The Böhme & Weihs CAQ integrates quality processes across the entire product lifecycle and connects CAQ with ERP, MES, and the digital shop floor.
Quality Throughout the Entire Product Life Cycle
Quality begins during product development, is ensured during manufacturing and delivery, and is continuously improved based on insights gained from product use and customer complaints. The Böhme & Weihs CAQ integrates these phases into a seamless quality process. Information from quality planning, inspections, audits, and complaints is not available in isolation but can be utilized across process boundaries.
Quality Management Throughout the Entire Product Life Cycle

Quality Management
Planning Quality, Avoiding Risks, Driving Improvements
Preventive quality management begins before the first inspection. From advance quality planning through risk analyses and production approvals to the handling of complaints, the CAQ helps systematically manage quality and feed insights back into subsequent processes.

Quality Is the Result of Synergy
Quality data does not reveal its full value in isolation. Only when viewed in the context of orders, materials, machine status, production processes, and customer feedback does a complete picture emerge.
The Böhme & Weihs CAQ integrates quality management with ERP and MES. This allows inspection statuses, deviations, and corrective actions to be incorporated into the operational process, and insights to be fed back into planning and production in a targeted manner.
Start small. Grow through integration.
A CAQ system doesn’t have to cover all quality processes right from the start. Companies can begin with the application area that’s most important to them at the moment and then expand their system step by step. Additional modules, integration with ERP, and connectivity with MES can be added as needed. This way, a clear starting point evolves into a networked quality solution.
From Quality Data to Quality Insights with Industrial AI
Modern quality processes are evolving from mere documentation toward the intelligent use of existing information. Consistent data and integrated processes lay the foundation for detecting deviations earlier, analyzing causes more quickly, and supporting more targeted decision-making.
Industrial AI helps provide insights from customer complaints, FMEA, inspections, and other sources in the right context. This leads, step by step, to more proactive quality processes—all the way toward the concept of Predictive Quality.
From CAQ to the Digital Shop Floor
Quality management delivers the greatest value when quality information is linked to production, orders, machines, and ERP processes.
As part of the Digital Shopfloor, CAQ becomes a preventive and economically effective component of operational control. Quality, production, energy, and industrial AI work together on a shared digital foundation.
