Improve quality and your bottom line

Ensure everyone follows best practices and requirements from international standards by creating digital SOPs for manufacturing operating practices. With photo annotation and calculations in inspections, it’s easy for frontline teams to capture and share noncompliant areas, giving management a clear view of what’s happening on the floor. With all your data in one place, you can quickly pinpoint problem areas and come up with solutions before they cause bigger problems.

“Now auditors can finish their near miss reports, take pictures and it all incorporates into one document. You can send it right from the field.”

Mark Hickey

Environmental Health and Safety Engineer, Schneider Electric
