Sit back, relax and let’s watch the audIT.app trailer.
I already have an internal audit system,
so why do I need audIT.app?
There is a huge amount of time and admin involved in a compliant internal audit programme.
Scheduling of audits, reminding people to do the audits, communicating any non-conformances, chasing of the corrective and preventive actions to get them completed and then making sure that they’re all verified so that you can close out the non-conformance.
audIT.app automates this for you, allowing you to focus on improvements – knowing that compliance is being managed for you.
How do the standards work?
The system comes with prepopulated audit templates, which are built to comply with GFSI standards.
You just select the standard that you want to audit to (food, packaging, storage and distribution or agents and brokers) and the system will build the right inspections and audits for you.
Does it do GMP inspections?
Yes! You can choose from a range of GMP inspections, allowing you to pick the ones that suit your business perfectly. There’s even a tablet app so that you can carry out your inspections on the factory floor.
Does it require a lot of set up?
No. The system will guide you through set up, then once that’s done all you have to focus on is doing the inspections and audits and the system will help to take care of the rest.
Does it do non-conformances too?
Yes, the system will automatically email non-conformances to those who need to do them.
audIT.app ensures that the non-conformance action process is compliant, including uploading of evidence for verification.
Does it include retailer codes of practice and standards?
It sure does! Get in touch for an up-to-date list of which ones are supported.
Will it handle my other non-conformances?
Yes, we appreciate non-conformances come from lots of different sources. We’ve built the system so you can put all of them into it. Non-conformances from incidents, complaints, non-conforming product, testing, etc. are all automated, and the system will manage them for you.
Some frequently asked questions about audIT.app
What about actions from management meetings or near miss?
audIT.app has a proactive action system for managing improvement actions. You can manually add tasks and actions, assign them and audIT.app will manage the rest.
Do I still need to do my internal audit risk assessment?
No, audIT.app will dynamically carry out a risk assessment for you every month. Where audIT.app identifies a problem it will instigate the recovery programme. This will help you to correct the problem and then move you back into the typical 12-monthly audit frequency.
Does audIT.app provide me with actual copies of the standard requirements or do I need to upload my own copy to it?
No, you don’t have to upload copies of the standards to the system. Depending on the plan you choose, the system will be already loaded with the standards that you have selected. You’ll find that we’ve translated the requirements into simple to questions, statements and instructions that the auditors can follow.
I’m a consultant, will it work for my clients?
Yes, this is a great way of being able to monitor your clients’ progress as they work through the close out of the audits that you’ve done for them. You’ll also be able to see how they’re getting on with GMP inspection and any trends in the non-conformances that are being raised.
What about root cause analysis?
Obviously, it can’t do the root cause analysis for you (although that would be really cool!) but it notifies the root cause analysis team when a non-conformance needs their attention. The team can then upload the root cause analysis evidence and trigger the preventive actions required.
Can I add in my own audits?
No – because you don’t need to. The team at Techni-K have done all the hard work for you. The inspections and audits have been built for you, using easy to understand questions, based on the standards you specify.
Does it include training?
Your auditors will still need a training certificate to be able to audit competently, and the software provides additional support in the glossary that teaches industry known words and phrases used within the audit questions. We also provide compliance elearning for all key roles using the system. for more information take a look at the range of awesome courses we provide. Combining our system, resources and elearning gives you the very best, and most robust audit possible.
Does it include other compliance standards such as ISO 14001 or ISO 45000?
Not at the moment, but it’s something we’re considering for the future.
How do I learn to use the system?
audIT.app has been built to be intuitive – so you need a minimal amount of training to use it. However, we also have a comprehensive PDF user guide, a bank of awesome help guides and online videos for you. Click here to view the audIT.app knowledge base
