Case Study: Schneider Electric reduces non-quality costs by 15% with CoLab Software

How Schneider Electric lowered Non-Quality Cost by 15% in their first year of using CoLab

Schneider Electric, a global energy management and automation company, needed to replace a legacy paper-based peer-check process in its EcoFit Canada team. Their design reviews were slowed by manual paperwork, scan-and-send workflows, scattered email feedback, and limited collaboration across remote and cross-functional teams. To solve this, they turned to CoLab Software and its cloud-based design review collaboration platform.

With CoLab Software, Schneider Electric digitized peer checks, centralized comments and revision history, and made 3D design feedback easier for both engineers and non-technical stakeholders to access in a browser. The result was faster review cycles, better communication, more people involved in quality checks, and fewer quality escapes. In the first year of using CoLab, Schneider Electric lowered Non-Quality Cost by 15%.
