Kubota’s Quality System (K-QA), which tracks and manages equipment field defects, is driven by Tavant’s AI-powered Analytics Platform

SANTA CLARA, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#AI—Tavant, a leading digital products and solutions company, today announced the implementation of AI-powered Tavant Manufacturing Analytics Platform (TMAP) at Kubota Tractor Corporation, a leading manufacturer of machinery equipment.

K-QA now brings a whole new level of accuracy and allows Kubota to find and fix issues faster than ever.

Overall, the solution is a monumental achievement and provides a lot of value to Kubota, its dealers, and customers,” said Cristoph Nathan, Senior Director, Kubota.
