Precision electronics
In progressPutting Test Statistics in Every Engineer's Hands
A company-wide web application built on the test database, giving engineers precise queries and interactive statistics. Now in early release with a first group of users.
The problem
Once years of test results lived in one structured database, the next question was how to get answers out of it. Engineers needed specific results quickly, and the statistics that show whether a process is stable and capable, without writing database queries or waiting on the one person who could.
What we’re building
Precise queries. Purpose-built screens let engineers pull exactly the test results they need, without knowing anything about the database underneath.
Interactive statistics. Results open in interactive charts: run charts, process capability (Cpk), trends over time, and other statistics that engineers can explore rather than just read.
Fast, even with heavy work. Large queries and calculations run in the background, so the application stays responsive while big jobs finish.
Run by administrators, not developers. Products, tests, and settings are managed through the application’s own administration screens, without touching code or the database directly.
Where it stands
The first version has been delivered to a limited group of users for feedback, and development continues based on what they find.
