Abstract
Managing a manufacturer's business plan in real-time, a computer receives real-time quality data associated with a measure of component quality from supplier of the component incorporated in a manufacturer product. The computer receives real-time quality data associated with a measure of product quality from the manufacturer. The computer determines a statistical trend in the received supplier real-time quality data. If supplier real-time quality data exceeds a quality target metric for the supplier, exceeds a quality target metric for the component, or the statistical trend exceeds a threshold value, the computer analyzes financial impact to the manufacturer using supplier real-time quality data, manufacturer real-time quality data, historical quality data of supplier and manufacturer, and manufacturer's business plan. Based on analysis results indicating financial impact exceeding a threshold, the computer externalizes a warning, externalizes recommended changes to manufacturer's business plan, and changes manufacturer's business plan with analysis recommended changes.
