Industry Pulse: Top QMS Trends Revealed by LNS Research
The Quality Management Software (QMS) landscape is evolving at lightning speed, particularly in industries like life sciences and manufacturing. Some latest insights from LNS Research reveal a major shift towards digitization and automation—key trends that Qualityze is at the forefront of supporting.
Embedded Quality Challenges and Opportunities
69% of Embedded Quality transformations fail, often due to outdated practices and misaligned leadership.
Only 14% of transformations are led by quality functions, but when they are, success rates jump to 36% among Delivered Quality leaders.
Leaders in Embedded Quality are 84% more likely to align with other transformation efforts, emphasizing the importance of strategic integration.
Organizations implementing Embedded Quality see impressive gains: 29% higher throughput, 23% higher net profit margin, 17% higher overall equipment effectiveness (OEE), and 15% higher first-pass yield.
Quality 4.0: Bridging Digital and Operational Excellence
Only 7% of companies have automated design transfer, revealing a significant gap in digital maturity.
43% of innovation leaders have real-time visibility into quality metrics, underscoring the importance of data transparency.
Quality culture remains a challenge, with 36% of companies citing it as a significant barrier, while only 13% of cross-functional teams understand quality's strategic impact.

Takeaway for Quality Leaders
To achieve impactful transformation, focus on integrating quality across the value chain, building a positive quality culture, and adopting Quality Data Architecture.
Ensure transformation efforts are led from within quality functions for better alignment with organizational goals.
Invest in technology and culture simultaneously for a holistic Quality 4.0 approach that drives sustainable improvements.
The above-mentioned statistics highlight how successful most companies can be by adopting advanced quality management technologies. For quality leaders, this limited adoption of AI-based models can lead to several challenges:
- Lag in Predictive Insights: Without AI-based models, quality leaders struggle to predict quality issues before they happen, missing the opportunity to prevent defects and inefficiencies proactively.
- Reactive Quality Management: Many quality teams are stuck in a reactive cycle, addressing quality issues after they occur rather than preventing them. This limits their ability to focus on continuous improvement and proactive quality measures.
- Slower Decision-Making: AI models help process vast amounts of data to derive actionable insights, allowing quicker and more informed decision-making. Without AI, quality leaders often rely on manual data analysis, which is time-consuming and error-prone.
- Falling Behind Competitors: Competitors leveraging AI are better positioned to optimize their processes, reduce costs, and improve product quality faster. Companies not using AI may find themselves lagging in terms of operational efficiency and market responsiveness.
