Since 2022, the company has been using cluetec audit software for the digitization of audits, checklists and processes. These include safety tours, 5S audits and process audits. Safety tours ensure compliance with safety regulations and protect employees. 5S audits optimize workplaces through the principles of sorting, systematization, cleaning, standardization and self-discipline. Process audits improve production processes by analyzing and optimizing bottlenecks and inefficiencies.

Mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets are used to audit the machines. Results are transmitted almost in real time to the mQuest® Audit web portal and analyzed with embedded analytics based on Microsoft Power BI. Deviations are converted into actions and tracked.

The audit software is also used to check service providers. Specific checklists are used to monitor compliance with contractual requirements. These checks are crucial for the evaluation and selection of suppliers.
