Overview

De La Rue produce a wide range of security products, including banknotes, passports, tax stamps, authentication labels and identity documents and manufactures high speed cash sorting and banknote inspection equipment. The £513 m globally based company’s diverse operations, combined with ever increasing quality considerations from customers put growing pressure on the company’s data analysis capabilities, as Peter Hall, Quality Director explains.

“Our biggest challenge is the need to monitor accurately all the available information on the production floor to support our strategy of continuous improvement” He continues, “It was essential to have a solution that not only helps identify opportunities to reduce waste, rework and raw material usage, we also need to be able to monitor trends and identify potential issues before they impact product quality, helping us ensure the highest level of customer satisfaction.”
