What is a QPId?

QIF Persistent Identifier (QPId) noun Cu·pid \ˈkyü-pəd\

• Universally Unique Identifier (UUID) (adopted by Microsoft as GUID)

• ISO/IEC 9834-8

• 550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000

• QPIds uniquely identify

• QIF Document

• QIF Plan

• QIF Result

• QIF Rule Set

• Feature Item

• Characteristic Item

• Product Item

• Resource Item

An Important Mechanism that facilitates Lifecycle Connectivity w/ Traceability

Value of MBD for Measurement

Faster time-to-

inspection

Reduce

inspection costs

Increase

inspection

quality

Bring

measurement

data into the

digital thread

Lower risk for

transcription &

interpretation

errors

• Utilize measurement

uncertainty

simulation

• Implement

organizational

guidelines — rely on

corporate process,

not personnel

Inspection planning is

a laborious task

involving skilled

technicians –

automation decreases

its cost significantly

Measurement data has

immense value – don’t

use it for PASS/FAIL

inspection and then

discard. MBD

traceable data is ready

for analytics

Software automation

lowers the risk of

transcription or

interpretation errors of

data, and creates

opportunities for

validation of data

Faster product

delivery. Inspection is

typically a bottleneck

in production – this

approach can

streamline

manufacturing

processes
