Quality improvement missions inside manufacturing plants have historically revolved around processes. However, manufacturing IT managers are now turning to software applications to support quality improvement initiatives.

- What role the IT team plays in quality improvement;
- What types of software can be used for quality improvement initiatives;
- How technology can reduce or eliminate error rates; and
- What the best starting point is for a quality improvement initiative
