Digital Inspections

What are digital inspections?

In today’s fast-paced industrial environment, ensuring safety, quality control, and compliance is more critical than ever. Traditional paper-based inspection methods are cumbersome and prone to errors, making it difficult to maintain the high standards required in manufacturing and industrial settings. Digital inspections helps industries and manufacturers achieve more robust regulation compliance, automated quality control, less downtime, and essential safety enhancements for inspectors.

How do digital inspections modernize the inspection process?

Compliance and quality control

Moving away from paper-based inspections to digital solutions like Proceedix Connected Worker offers a transformative approach to managing inspection processes. By adopting digital inspections, organizations can automate and streamline workflows, ensuring that every inspection is conducted efficiently and in full compliance with industry standards.

Enhance inspection workflows

Managers can build and maintain inspection routines and workflows with digital inspections, customizable workflow templates, checklists, asset information, and more. Real-time data capture and the Connected Worker Copilot ensure that inspections are thoroughly documented and meet all regulatory requirements. This improves inspection accuracy and guarantees that no critical step is overlooked.

What are the key features of digital inspections?

Automated Checklists

One of the standout features of digital inspections is automated checklists. These pre-defined, customizable templates cater to various inspection needs, from safety audits to equipment maintenance and quality control. By deploying these checklists through Proceedix Connected Worker Digital Inspections, frontline workers can quickly log and record every inspection process step through a guided, interactive workflow.

AI-Powered Data Analysis

Integrating AI-powered data analysis through Connected Worker Copilot and IRIS Foundry enhances the efficiency of digital inspections. Instead of manually sifting through hundreds of OEM specification documents, workers can quickly locate relevant inspection information. This streamlines the inspection process, assures compliance, reduces errors, and boosts operational efficiency.

Hands-Free Inspections

Digital inspections also support hands-free operations, allowing workers to control the app through voice commands or other extended reality (XR) tools. This feature is particularly useful when handheld devices are impractical or unsafe. Inspectors can quickly advance through workflow steps, take photos or videos for reporting, and more with simple hand gestures, leaving their hands free for better efficiency, safety, and performance of inspection tasks.

Photo and Video Documentation

Empowering workers to document steps with photos or videos directly within the digital workflow adds another layer of accountability and accuracy during inspections. This real-time visual evidence is stored securely alongside each inspection, speeding up audit processes and creating a comprehensive media-rich history of inspections.

Compliance Tracking

Maintaining compliance with regulatory standards and internal policies is crucial. Proceedix Connected Worker records every aspect and detail of each workflow step, providing a clear, auditable record. Digital tracking reduces non-compliance risk and strengthens an organization’s commitment to safety and quality standards, ensuring that industry regulations are met more accurately and efficiently.
