Quality Leadership

eInfochips understands the financial implications of bugs/defects. In manufacturing parlance, the cost of a defect/bug is increased by a factor of 10 or more. So we have a well-established Quality Management System (QMS) that has evolved over the years. The QMS of eInfochips is well integrated with best of quality model like CMM / CMMi with a focus on process improvement.

eInfochips’s robust methodologies and processes consolidate the rich experience of Product development, hardware and software development, verification & validation and maintenance, in delivering and supporting, enterprise applications, ASIC and FPGA design  and embedded systems and products. Our mature process frameworks effectively reduce risk and unpredictability across the software and hardware development life cycle and flexibly integrate with our clients' processes.  Our commitment to quality standards have made our customers rely on our competency in providing value-added consulting best suited to improve and enhance their business processes.

Our Quality Management System

• A comprehensive Quality Management System (QMS) embodies:
• Procedures for all project and support related activities, such as:
  • Proposal and Contract Review procedure
  • Project Management and execution procedure
  • Training procedure, and so on.
• Guidelines for a variety of areas, such as:
  • Conducting reviews
  • Preparing Project Plans – Quality Plan, Configuration Management Plan, etc.
• Standards and guidelines for various languages, databases, GUIs etc.
  
• Forms relevant to all the procedures

The QMS follows top-down architecture. At the project level, the plans maintained as per the QMS are:

• Project plan
  
• Quality plan
  
• Configuration management plan
  
• Risk management plan
  
• Training plan
  
• Test plan
• Metrics plan

These documents facilitate project management activity. The projects also maintain work product related documents like the design document, FS document, test cases etc.

Ensuring uniform quality standards across the organization, from process definition to implementation, are a challenge. The methods used by eInfochips to meet these challenges are:

• Centralized update and control of the Quality Management System (defined process)
  
• Well defined quality training courses
  
• SQA networks across all divisions
  
• Infrastructure like e-mail, Web meetings etc. to aid meetings like Management Review, technical discussion etc.
  
• An organization structure for projects as well as the quality department that ensures centralized control.
