Episode 4: QT9 Business Intelligence 3.0: From Data to Decisions with ERP + QMS

Episode 4: In this episode of QT9 Q-Cast, host Christian Reyes sits down with data analyst Riley Wise to reveal everything you need to know about the new version of the QT9 Business Intelligence (BI) Tool, launching December 2025. This major update unites QT9 QMS, QT9 ERP, and external data sources (like Excel, REST APIs, CRMs, and MySQL databases) into a single, unified platform—giving manufacturers a powerful way to turn their data into actionable insights. 

Wise walks us through how QT9 BI 3.0 enables teams to build custom dashboards, KPIs, reports, and visualizations without traditional manual exports, VLOOKUPs, or spreadsheet maintenance. Customers can now analyze supplier data, inventory aging, training delinquencies, nonconformances, change controls, jobs, purchasing data, and more all in one interface. 

This update also includes a completely redesigned Query Builder, now enabling read-only SQL queries directly against QT9 data for deeper, more granular analytics. 

Whether you’re a quality leader, plant manager, operations director, or data-driven manufacturer, this episode shows why the new QT9 BI tool is becoming the all-in-one hub for QMS + ERP analytics, data unification, and streamlined reporting.
