> The SBS Quality Database is a comprehensive, easy-to-use platform designed to help organizations manage major components of a Quality Management System (QMS). Built to support ISO 9001, AS9100, ISO 13485, ISO 14001, ISO 45001, and other industry standards, it centralizes corrective actions, nonconformances, audits, risk management, meetings, and project activities into one integrated system. The result is a streamlined, paperless environment that improves visibility, accelerates problem solving, and strengthens organizational compliance.&#10;&#10;The system offers robust tools for Corrective and Preventive Actions (CARs and PARs), using the structured 8D methodology to guide teams from containment through root cause analysis, corrective action planning, verification, validation, and closure. Each action item includes ownership, due dates, status tracking, and effectiveness measurements, giving managers real-time visibility into the status of open issues. Users can link supporting documents, photos, emails, and evidence directly to each record for complete traceability.&#10;&#10;Nonconformance management is equally powerful. The database allows users to record detailed NC events, perform failure analysis, document dispositions, and escalate issues into corrective actions with a single click. Over 30 configurable reports and charts help teams identify systemic issues, analyze defect trends, and monitor performance for continual improvement.&#10;&#10;The Audit Management module supports internal, customer, supplier, safety, and certification audits. Users can record audit details, findings, linked CARs, approval signatures, supporting evidence, and closure activities. Scheduling tools make it easy to plan and manage future audits, while configurable reports support audit readiness and compliance.&#10;&#10;Risk management is built directly into the system through both FMEA and SWOT analysis tools. Organizations can evaluate risks at the business, process, and product levels, develop mitigation actions, and track improvements over time. This structure supports ISO 9001:2015’s requirement for risk-based thinking and offers a clear method for proactively reducing organizational risk.&#10;&#10;Additional capabilities include project and meeting management, organizational context, and tracking of interested parties—helping users maintain complete QMS documentation in one place. All modules are supported by a clean, intuitive interface with dashboards, required-field indicators, powerful filters, and export options for Excel, Word, and PDF. Reports can be emailed directly from the system with a single click.&#10;&#10;The SBS Quality Database is available in three deployment options: a cost-effective Microsoft Access stand-alone version, an SQL-based version offering enhanced security and reliability, and the SBS Cloud QMS for secure, browser-based access from any device. User privileges ensure that employees only access designated modules, protecting data integrity and simplifying training.&#10;&#10;With its rich functionality, simple navigation, robust reporting, and flexible deployment, the SBS Quality Database provides one of the best values in QMS software. It enables organizations to improve compliance, reduce risk, enhance customer satisfaction, and drive continuous improvement—while saving time, eliminating paperwork, and giving management the visibility needed to make informed decisions.

## Reviews

### "Great to work with, flexible and economical. We use the Quality Database & Training Database." — 5.0/5

> **Jeff** | *10 January 2018* | Aviation & Aerospace | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: SBS was able to customize the databases to fit our business. They have even set it up to communicate with our ERP system so that essential information will come from the ERP. Whenever we ask for a modification, it is delivered lightning fast.
> 
> **Cons**: Using MS Access as the front-end has advantages, but the nature of Access is not always firm enough around the end-users. (The back end is SQL.)

### "Wrote, Implemented and Managed both ISO -9001 and AS9100 QMS with SBS Software." — 5.0/5

> **Dennis** | *26 February 2018* | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Maintains all critical data in one place. Auditing is easy and auditor liked that we had everything in a database versus on paper which is hard to audit. It assists in organizing and understanding a QMS system for less experienced personnel. Bottom line it is easy, strait forward, well organized, easy to update and conforms to all the requirements.
> 
> **Cons**: Custom reports must be requested from support. They cannot be written by user. This is also a plus since the reports are design to comply with the standards. Changing them can be dangerous.
> 
> It made implementing a QMS quick and easy. We passed certification of the ISO 9001 and AS9100 on the first audit. For the cost it is fantastic.
