Digital Product Audits For Maximum Quality Assurance
Product Audit Software With Serial Number Traceability
SCIIL Product Audit App with belonging application digitizes quality inspections during production, on site or during maintenance activities. Each product is recorded via its serial number so that all inspection results are fully traceable. From attribute inspections and checklists to visual inspections and measurement audits, all data flows into a central platform. Dashboards display quality KPIs such as FTT (First Time Through), OK/NOK ratio or the Top 5 bottlenecks in real time. This creates seamless traceability across the entire product lifecycle.
Automatically generated electronic inspection checklists are particularly useful for products with many variants and unique serial numbers, such as vehicles, seat assembly lines, elevators, vending machines, industrial equipment or watches. Inspections can be carried out flexibly: directly in the production line, as final end-of-line product audits, or at the customer site during installation and maintenance – even offline on mobile devices.
Product Audit App For Functional, Visual & Completeness Checks
The SCIIL Product Audit App consists of three main modules that can be used individually or in combination. In addition to digital product audit functionality, the REWORK module ensures controlled rework of NOK products. The Product Audit App for mobile inspections can be connected to existing production planning systems to automatically generate inspection checklists based on product variant and configuration.
Product Checklist For Attribute Inspections with SCIIL PCL
Checklists are product- and variant-specific and can be distributed across multiple stations. Entries can be made on mobile devices (iOS, Android, Windows) or on stationary touchscreen terminals.
- Functional tests
- Missing parts
- Component inspection
- Labeling
- Configuration
- Appearance
The evaluation provides top error lists, OK/NOK statistics and FTT values – quickly and transparently.
Visual inspections in product audits with SCIIL VI
With the Visual Inspection (VI) module, defects can be marked directly on product images. The system supports variant-specific product views and enables input via touchscreens on smartphones or tablets. At the same time, the solution documents affected areas and components in a structured way and displays the results clearly at rework stations. In addition, statistical analysis visualizes visual defects using heat maps, making the distribution of defects on the product image clearly visible.
Measuring Product Audits with SCIIL MA
Measurement Audit (MA) is a slimmed-down SPC solution designed for mobile data collection of product-specific measurements and complements traditional SPC analyses. Inspection plans contain defined target values and tolerances, allowing the system to immediately detect tolerance violations, display deviations and highlight NOK characteristics at rework stations.
All recorded measurement values are fully available for statistical evaluations and traditional SPC analyses. The software supports online process monitoring with pp and ppk indicators and provides an interface to QS-STAT. In addition, the system generates serial-number-based reports documenting all measurements. This allows deviations to be detected early and process stability to be monitored continuously.
REWORK, TRACE & DASHBOARDS – Full Transparency
All NOK results from the Product Audit App modules PCL, VI and MA are consolidated in the:
REWORK
Open inspections, NOK results and defects related to a serial number are clearly displayed in the system. Only after all characteristics have been reworked and confirmed does the serial number automatically switch to “OK” status. This ensures that no product leaves the production line while unresolved defects still exist.
TRACE
The traceability function displays inspection results both vertically and horizontally. The vertical view shows all inspection results for a single serial number, while the horizontal view groups all products with specific defects, faults or rework activities. Inspection results from all mobile and stationary inspection stations are immediately available, ensuring complete and seamless traceability.
DASHBOARDS
KPIs visualized in real time. This allows trends, improvements and bottlenecks to be identified immediately. Evidence for customers or suppliers can be provided at any time. The Product Audit App for mobile inspections provides a reliable foundation for quality, efficiency and transparency – with measurable ROI through reduced scrap, less rework and a clear data basis for decision-making.
