A transformation in the standardization of audit processes
Previously, conducting audits relied on repetitive tasks that structured the process. Each audit had to be designed from A to Z. With the new version, QHSE teams can rely on a new custom template system.
These models allow standardize processes while maintaining the flexibility needed to adapt to various types of audits: internal, supplier, or environmental. The management of audit matrices makes it possible to structure each criterion precisely: each question, each indicator is weighted, offering a finer assessment.
The benefit for the user is obvious: time savings and consistency gains. Audits are automatically adapted to each situation and each sector of activity.
The power of measurement: How the scoring system optimizes your QHSE performance
Going from observation to numerical analysis is all the power ofadvanced audit. The quotation introduced in this new version completely changes the situation.
Each audit criterion is now evaluated using a trust index system. This system allows precise scores to be assigned to each audited element, providing a clear vision of compliance or discrepancies. This rating helps prioritize actions to be taken, according to the level of criticality of the differences observed.
The benefits are twofold: not only can businesses quickly analyze their situation, but they can immediately identify areas for improvement and direct their resources to priorities.
An agile and automated monitoring tool for continuous progress
With the new advanced audit, no more manual monitoring of non-conformities and corrective actions in spreadsheets or via emails. Now every discrepancy is classified into typologies (minor, major non-compliance, improvement point, etc.) as soon as it is detected. Each corrective action to be taken is automatically assigned, monitored, and closed. There is no longer the risk of being forgotten: everything is centralized and traceable.
In addition, the versioning functionality Ensures that each audit is based on the correct version of the audit matrices. In concrete terms, when the model used to assess the criteria of an audit is updated, this feature makes it possible to keep track of each modification made. This means that even if adjustments are made to criteria or weights, the previous results remain consistent with the version of the matrix used at the time. Businesses therefore benefit from better traceability. Moreover, they can consult, compare, or analyze past audits based on the exact versions of the matrices applied in order to avoid confusion.
In addition to that, the system automatically reschedules future audits according to the results obtained. Thus, recurring audits are planned without human intervention, ensuring continuous monitoring of QHSE processes.
Rights and permissions management: A step closer to security and traceability
La new advanced audit feature allows you to define precise permissions for each user according to their role. Auditors, managers, or simple contributors: each has a access adapted according to his responsibilities.
This allows a more secure audit management, where only authorized persons can modify, validate or close an audit. This distribution of rights also strengthens collaboration, as it makes it easier to access information for those who really need it, while reducing the risks associated with data mishandling.
Why advanced auditing is really a game changer
Finally, the comparison between the old audit functionality and the advanced audit shows real progress in conducting and managing audits:
- Now, audits benefit from automated processes and standardization options.
- Variance management is now centralized, offering optimized monitoring and eliminating the need for external tools such as spreadsheets.
- Matrix models are standardized and customizable, favoring uniformity while adapting to the specificities of each activity.
- Scoring makes it possible to objectively assess the results in order to prioritize actions.
- The monitoring of discrepancies and corrective actions is automated.
- Versioning ensures that each audit is carried out with the criteria in force at the time of its creation.
- Finally, each user has clearly defined rights according to their role, strengthening data security and the control of changes and validations.
Faster, sharper, and above all more automated, theadvanced audit allows companies to focus on what matters most: the continuous improvement of their QHSE performance.
