WinSPC

Real-time statistical process control software for plant-floor quality monitoring.

  • Collect measurement data from gauges, PLCs, CMMs, and other devices as it is produced and display live control charts at each collection station. A plant monitor view gives supervisors a summary of every station from one screen.
  • When a rule violation or non-conformance occurs, WinSPC can alert personnel, execute custom programs, shut down machines, or communicate bidirectionally with MES, ERP, or corrective-action systems.
  • Identify the financial cost of give-away, overfill, rework, and scrap across all operations. Calculate potential savings per unit by reducing process variation or shifting the process mean.

What WinSPC does

Capabilities your team will actually use.

Real-time statistical process control software for plant-floor quality monitoring.

01 / Real-time control

Real-time control charts and plant monitoring

Collect measurement data from gauges, PLCs, CMMs, and other devices as it is produced and display live control charts at each collection station. A plant monitor view gives supervisors a summary of every station from one screen.

  • Connects to RS232/USB gauges, ODBC databases, CMMs, PLCs via OPC/OLE/DDE, and CSV/Excel files
  • Simple three-step device connection process
  • WECO and custom rule violations trigger immediate operator alerts
02 / Automated alerts

Automated alerts and closed-loop triggers

When a rule violation or non-conformance occurs, WinSPC can alert personnel, execute custom programs, shut down machines, or communicate bidirectionally with MES, ERP, or corrective-action systems.

  • Configurable trigger library covers email, SMS, machine shutdown, and custom program execution
  • Bidirectional API with 500+ methods and properties for system integration
  • Closes the detection-to-correction loop without manual handoffs
03 / Cost Inspector

Cost Inspector — translate variation into dollars

Identify the financial cost of give-away, overfill, rework, and scrap across all operations. Calculate potential savings per unit by reducing process variation or shifting the process mean.

  • Searches process data across all operations to surface costly variation sources
  • Produces cost-based reports for executive management ROI reporting
  • Links historical process data to current and projected manufacturing cost
04 / Regulatory compliance

Regulatory compliance — FDA 21 CFR Part 11, ISO, TS, USDA

Built-in electronic signature workflows, tamper-evident event logging, and role-based security support regulated-industry audit requirements without additional configuration.

  • FDA 21 CFR Part 11 electronic signatures and forced logout enforcement
  • Full system event log: spec changes, deletions, configuration changes, operator sign-offs
  • DataNet Validation Toolkit provides IQ/OQ/PQ documentation for FDA software validation

FAQ

Common questions about WinSPC.

Don't see your question? Ask the team.

WinSPC collects from RS232 and USB digital gauges, calipers, and micrometers; CMMs; PLCs via OPC, OLE, and DDE protocols; ODBC-compliant databases; CSV and Excel files; and machines such as vision systems and test stations. The three-step connection process is designed for plant-floor IT skill levels.

WinSPC is an on-premise, operator-station SPC product designed around the individual collection point. InfinityQS Enact is cloud-native and optimized for multi-plant enterprise rollup and cross-site comparison. Many customers run both: WinSPC at the inspection station for real-time operator feedback, InfinityQS for plant-level and portfolio-level analytics. They are complementary rather than competing.

Yes. WinSPC supports electronic signatures, forced logouts for session security, role-based privilege assignment, and a full system event log that records every configuration change, limit modification, and operator action. DataNet also offers a Validation Toolkit with IQ/OQ/PQ documentation templates and turn-key validation services for FDA-regulated environments.

WinSPC is used in food and beverage (including baking, dairy, and seafood), pharmaceutical and medical device, automotive, aerospace and defense, electronics, and construction materials manufacturing. Any regulated or quality-intensive discrete or process manufacturer with operator-station inspection requirements is a candidate.

Yes. WinSPC's trigger system can send alerts, execute custom programs, communicate with corrective action systems, or issue machine shutdown commands when rule violations occur. The bidirectional API supports 500+ methods and properties for integration with MES, ERP, and SCADA systems.

Advantive provides direct implementation services for all brands. A named implementation lead is assigned at kickoff and stays with the project through go-live. Partner-led implementations are available for select brands when a customer prefers an existing systems integrator.

Advantive ONE extends each brand with cross-system intelligence — surfacing patterns across your ERP, MES, quality, and warehouse data. It runs as a layer on top of your product, not a replacement. Customers on a current support contract are eligible.

Standard support covers software updates, the customer portal (knowledge base + ticketing), and the Advantive support team during business hours in your region. Premium tiers add dedicated customer success, extended SLA coverage, and 24/7 critical-incident response.
