Working from home accelerates need for digital quality management

The challenge

Now that the government has again taken the measure that as much as possible should be worked from home, many quality departments are struggling with the question of how to ensure continuity of work. On top of that, quality department employees are often in the office alternating shifts, making mutual communication difficult. Communication with the rest of the organization, including production, is also difficult. And it is precisely the enthusing, motivating and training of employees that is an important task of the quality manager.

At the same time, the quality manager has to deal with many other challenges, such as the increasing pressure due to audits and review and the increasing demand for transparency in the chain. This requires proper documentation of your data.

The solution

Digitizing your quality system helps ensure that these challenges are better managed. Digitization is possible in many areas. Think of digitizing the document manual, specification management, inspection rounds or supplier assessment. For these solutions, Quasydoc offers various digitization options.

The added value

Digitizing your quality system has many advantages; we list a few for you:

A digital quality system is available via the cloud, allowing a user to access the necessary data at any time and location. This makes remote collaboration very easy.
Employees throughout the organization can access predetermined parts of the system, such as relevant documents.
Communicate with colleagues through the system by assigning tasks. In addition, employees on the shop floor can relay notifications through the system, making presence on the shop floor no longer always necessary to take care of these notifications.
Remote audits become easier and more efficient, by allowing the auditor limited access to necessary data.
More control over annual planning and deployed actions, as actions can easily be assigned the responsible employee.
Performing a supplier assessment can easily be done remotely, by setting KPIs in advance and using them to have an employee assess this supplier.
When employees are down due to illness or vacation, work can easily be taken over because required documentation is available in the cloud.
