Quality Audits

Objective and traceable evidence of process and product compliance

Audits based on real execution data, providing objective evidence and full traceability. Integrates process, product and 5S records, ensuring verifiable compliance with a consistent and auditable history.

What this module delivers

  • Product, process, 5S and layered audits
  • Objective evidence with structured records
  • Traceability by date, area and responsible
  • Auditable history for analysis and actions
  • Support for ISO compliance and management systems

Why audits must be done the right way

When audits rely on memory, isolated spreadsheets or interpretation, the most critical elements are lost: objective evidence, traceability and consistent comparison over time.

  • Reduced subjectivity through standardized criteria.
  • Reliable records of execution, shift, area, role and responsible.
  • Solid foundation for corrective, preventive and improvement actions.

Typical operational outcomes

Higher reliability
Audits supported by evidence and standardized historical data.
Higher speed
Direct shop-floor recording with automatic consolidation by period and area.
Full traceability
Who audited, what was checked, when, where and with which result.

Audit types covered

The module structures criteria, collects evidence and consolidates results by area, product and period, maintaining consistency across audits.

Product Audit

Systematic verification of product requirements and quality criteria.

  • Standardized checklists by product family or line.
  • Evidence and observation records.
  • Nonconformity consolidation by requirement.

Process Audit

Verification of execution: method, parameters, records and discipline.

  • Criteria by operation, workstation or cell.
  • Traceability by shift and team.
  • Trends by audited item and area.

5S Audit

Structured evaluation of organization, cleanliness and standardization.

  • Verification items by area.
  • Scoring by item and sector.
  • Historical view for cultural and discipline evolution.

Layered Audit

Verifies effectiveness across hierarchy levels and critical routines.

  • Rules by level (team leader, supervision, management).
  • Traceability by schedule and frequency.
  • Clear view of adherence by area and level.

Evidence, traceability and auditable history

Each audit generates a structured dataset: evaluated criteria, scores, observations and execution context. This enables consistent comparison across periods, areas and production lines.

Complete traceability
Date/time, area, item, location, shift, role and responsible.
Criteria consistency
Standardized evaluation rules by audit type and area.
Trend analysis
Historical evolution by item and area based on evidence.
Action-driven data
Nonconformities mapped for treatment and recurrence prevention.

Integration with the IVR ecosystem

Audits become more powerful when connected to the rest of Quality: data, measurements, evidence and actions.

  • IVR QIF — structured data and traceability (QIF (ISO 23952)).
  • IVR MSA — measurement system capability confirmation.
  • IVR SPC — process stability and variation monitoring.
