For decades, quality control was the final checkpoint of manufacturinga – line of defense between production and the customer. It was a discipline built around inspection reports, go/no-go gauges, and the belief that catching errors was the best way to ensure quality. But in today’s digital, data-driven manufacturing environment, that paradigm is shifting dramatically. Quality control is no longer an endpoint – it’s becoming the engine room of manufacturing intelligence.
