Challenge for pole position in development, production, aftersales and mobility with QR_ as your expert data management partner.

Decarbonisation of the global economy is driving an unprecedented level of new zero emissions vehicle development and introduction. However, 90% of such programmes run late and over budget through lack of early visibility of different critical path items not being ready or misaligned through poor and incomplete product specification data. The operational impacts are huge – incorrect or wrong specification parts causing constant firefighting, reduced productivity, extensive re-work, immense frustration and high stress levels. The resulting business impacts are equally huge – escalating programme costs, delayed revenues and lost first-mover market opportunities.

There is a solution - Quick Release. What we do is critical to the success of any vehicle engineering programme and we are the best in the world at doing it. We will be your expert product data management partner that will bring order to your data and processes and help you bring your products to market faster, more efficiently and with less risk. Our extensive practical experience and unique hands-on approach will enable you to realise your full potential as a leader in the fast growing zero emissions vehicle market.

Showcase projects

Cost-down tracking and implementation

A British multinational automotive company found themselves in a difficult financial situation with shrinking margins due to rising manufacturing and supply chain costs. In response, a cost reduction project was initiated, aiming to reduce production costs by £1.4b over 3-year period. QR_ was hired to facilitate the cost reduction idea generation by overseeing and improving the data governance.

Live Uptime Centre

As part of the launch of the OEM brand, the OEM are aiming to be the first Light Commercial Vehicle OEM to have an 'Uptime Centre'. This project supports developing a live dashboard of metrics from numerous different data sources centered around Commercial Vehicle uptime. This dashboard was developed to be displayed on a ~10 meter 'power wall' within the Uptime Centre.

DVP Management

The client had no visibility of their Vehicle level Design Verification Plan. There was no single source of truth to enable traceability from vehicle requirement to verification.
