Process description:
  • Upon readiness of an order for dispatch, the quality team reviews all part numbers being sent to the customer.
  • The team searches for a vendor-provided specification PDF for each part number.
  • Within each document, the team extracts chemical and mechanical values derived during testing.
  • These values are manually captured and added to a PDF document, which is then released as a certification accompanying the order shipment.
Objective:

To automate the extraction, compilation, and certification generation process to enhance accuracy, efficiency, and speed in order dispatch.

Challenges:
  • Manual searching and extraction of specific data from vendor-provided PDFs is tedious and error-prone.
  • Manual compilation of extracted data into a certification document is time-consuming.
  • The existing process may delay order dispatch and is subject to human error, potentially affecting the accuracy of the certification.
Solution:

DTskill set up a Hyper Automation Platform to:

  • Automatically locate and retrieve the vendor-provided specification PDFs for each part number.
  • Utilize pre-trained ML Extractors to automatically extract the required chemical and mechanical values from the PDFs.
  • Automatically compile the extracted data into a certification document in PDF format.
  • Release the certification document along with the order shipment, ensuring timely dispatch.
Benefits:
  • Significant reduction in time taken from order readiness to dispatch, improving order fulfillment speed.
  • Enhanced accuracy in the certification document by eliminating manual data entry errors.
  • Streamlined quality certification process, freeing up quality team resources for other critical quality assurance tasks.
  • Improved customer satisfaction due to timely and accurate certification accompanying order shipments.
