ProQC — Streamlining inspections and audits with modern technology
ProQC, a global inspection and supplier management leader, has provided tailored quality control services for decades. With operations spanning over 88 countries, they specialize in conducting meticulous inspections of products, factories, and factory processes, ensuring stringent quality standards. However, with increasing complexity and the limitations of outdated document-based processes, Pro QC aimed to modernize and streamline their workflows to enhance productivity and accuracy. That's where we stepped in as their strategic partner to help digitize and optimize their inspection and audit processes.
Business Context
For years, Pro QC had relied on manual, document-centric workflows for inspections and audits, leading to several inefficiencies:
Data disarray: Inspection data was scattered across documents, making analysis difficult.
Onboarding challenges: New hires struggled to adapt to the complex document-based system.
Outdated templates: Their system included obsolete templates, which led to confusion and inconsistency.
Human error risks: Manual data entry across spreadsheets and paper-based methods led to frequent errors.
Lack of Live Tracking: Clients could not monitor the inspection progress in real-time, impacting transparency and client satisfaction.
Key Challenges
Pro QC's existing processes required a complete overhaul to:
Reduce manual efforts and improve the quality and speed of inspections.
Build a system intuitive enough for both experienced professionals and new team members.
Eliminate the high risks associated with human errors.
Enable live tracking for clients to follow inspection progress in real-time.
