Quality Check Analysis App
Analyze failure types, root causes, and resolution time to reduce rework and improve product quality.
Quality Check Analysis – Power BI App Overview

In high-output manufacturing environments, managing quality failures proactively is critical to minimizing rework time and controlling production costs. The Quality Check Analysis Dashboard offers a clear, data-driven view of failure patterns, root causes, and resolution timelines—enabling operations and quality assurance teams to identify trends and prioritize improvements.
This Power BI app transforms fragmented QC logs into actionable insights, helping reduce recurring issues, optimize repair cycles, and lower the cost of non-conformance.
🔧 Technical Framework
The dashboard is powered by structured QC failure records, linked to plant locations, failure categories, and corrective action data.
Key Components:
- Data Source: Excel or system exports detailing failure IDs, types, reasons, fix duration, and cost implications.
- Data Preparation: Performed in Power Query to clean, standardize, and categorize failure reasons and resolution times.
- Data Model Dimensions:
- Location
- QC Failure Type (e.g., Density, Packaging, Temperature Sensitivity)
- Failure Reason
- Time to Fix (Days)
- Extra Cost
This structure supports scalable integration with MES, ERP, and CAPA systems.
🎛️ Interactive Filters
To support precise failure tracking, the dashboard includes:
- Location Filter: Zoom in on plant-specific performance issues.
- Failure Type Filter: Narrow the view to specific QC categories.
These filters help teams isolate critical issues and take location-specific or material-specific actions quickly.
📊 Dashboard Report Highlights
a. Pie Chart – QC Failure by Failure Type
Visual breakdown of the major types of quality failures across all locations (e.g., Density Failure, Raw Material Failure).
b. Column Chart – QC Failure by Failure Reason
Top reasons behind QC failures (e.g., Improper rolling, Overheated bitumen), along with their frequency—enabling pattern recognition and root cause analysis.
c. Column Chart – Average Time to Fix by Failure Type
Compares average resolution time across failure types, revealing which issues cause the most downtime.
d. Table – QC Failure Details
Detailed records of each failure including:
- QC Failure ID
- Location
- Type and Reason of Failure
- Days to Fix
- Associated Extra Cost
A total extra cost figure at the bottom quantifies the operational impact of unresolved or recurring quality issues.
This dashboard enables a proactive quality control culture by making failure data visible, measurable, and actionable—reducing rework cycles, supporting root cause correction, and optimizing cost-efficiency in production.
