Singularity for Aerospace & Defence

One part's history, kept in three places.

Inspection entries sit in the QMS, the traveller in a binder, the revision in PLM. We read all three where they sit, so the part's history is one record when someone asks.

Where aerospace and defence shops lose track

  1. 01 Every prime request starts a rebuild A first article package or proof that an NCR was closed means someone digs through email threads and old inspection reports.
  2. 02 The floor builds to last week's revision Engineering releases a change. The traveller on the floor still shows the old one, so the as-built record doesn't match the as-designed.
  3. 03 One missing cert holds the shipment Serial numbers, material certs, heat treat and NDT records all live in different places. One gap holds a shipment, or starts a wider review.
  4. 04 Program access is tracked by hand Who can see which program, part and site gets granted person by person and logged in a spreadsheet. Every new hire and every new program adds a row someone has to remember.
  5. 05 A gauge past calibration still measures parts The calibration dates live in a spreadsheet. A gauge goes overdue, keeps measuring, and nobody knows until an audit pulls the record.

What we connect in an aerospace and defence shop

  • ERP Work orders, part numbers and due dates. Every job carries the order it belongs to.
  • Quality system Non-conformances, deviations and first article results. A hold is tied to the part, lot and job it touches.
  • PLM Drawings and engineering revisions. The record shows which revision built the part.
  • Inspection and CMM data Measurement results against the print. A reading is stored with the part and who took it.
  • Travellers and paper records The router that rides with the job. The paper trail becomes a form nobody re-keys.
  • Supplier portals or spreadsheets Supplier certifications and the schedule kept in Excel.

What aerospace and defence shops use the Singularity for

Your Singularity, built for how you work. Pick one of these or all of them, and we set it up around your cells, your part numbers and the names your shop already uses.

Audit readiness

The first article package comes from the record, not from email.

Historian + Form Builder + Integration Hub + Knowledge Library

The traveller becomes a form, every CMM reading stays with its part and lot, and the PLM revision is on the record. Pull up the run and every reading, signed form and cited procedure behind it is already together.

1 It connects

  • ERP
  • Quality system
  • PLM

2 What runs, and what it does

  1. HistorianKeeps every reading with its time, asset and run.
  2. Form BuilderReplaces the traveller and the binder page.
  3. Integration HubReads ERP, QMS and PLM so nothing lives in three places.
  4. Knowledge LibraryHolds the procedure the auditor asks about, cited by page.

3 What you get

  • PN-6119 rev C Plant 2 Cell 3 WO-118390

Digital employees

A deviation above the limit waits for a person’s yes.

Authority Matrix + Governance + Approval Queue + Notification Center

Digital employees take the routine work inside the authority you set. A concession or deviation past that limit stops before it runs and waits in the Approval Queue, and who decided and when stays on the record.

2 What runs, and what it does

  1. Authority MatrixSets the authority each Agent acts inside, action by action.
  2. GovernanceStops anything past it before it runs.
  3. Approval QueueHolds it for a person and keeps who decided and when.
  4. Notification CenterBrings the waiting request to the bell of the person who can approve it.

  • Deviation approvalQuality Manager and above On

Root cause analysis

Every non-conformance is tracked to a verified fix.

Investigation Engine + Coach + Knowledge Library

Each NCR becomes one case with its causes, countermeasures and evidence. Every countermeasure is tracked to sign-off, the case shows what’s still open before anyone closes it, and the next investigation finds how this one was answered.

2 What runs, and what it does

  1. Investigation EngineHolds the NCR as one case: causes, countermeasures, evidence and the lesson, with every open sign-off in view.
  2. CoachPulls causes and countermeasures from closed cases when you ask. Nothing reaches the case until you review it.
  3. Knowledge LibraryKeeps the closed case searchable for the next one.

Quality monitoring

A dimension drifts. The lot is held before it moves on.

SPC Engine + Auditor + Investigation Engine

The SPC Engine flags a CMM reading three sigma from its mean, or eight in a row on one side. Inside the authority you set, the Auditor opens the hold. Anything outside it waits for your quality manager.

2 What runs, and what it does

  1. SPC EngineScores each measurement as it's logged and flags the drift.
  2. AuditorSweeps every 15 minutes and opens the hold inside the authority you set.
  3. Notification CenterPuts the hold on the bell of the people who own the part.
  4. Authority MatrixSets which holds the Auditor may open alone. The rest wait for a person.
  5. Investigation EnginePicks it up as a case when the drift needs a cause.
