LPA - Layered Process Audit

Regular audits at fixed intervals by defined hierarchical levels ("layers") were first introduced by Daimler Chrysler in 2000 and have since become a recognized tool for the consistent implementation of process standards. In essence, managers from various hierarchical levels (layers) conduct audits using simple checklists to verify compliance with specifications and rules.

LPA with Software Support

The LPA method offers numerous proven advantages. The sole drawback is evident: it demands time and employee qualifications, both crucial factors today. Software significantly saves time and guides even inexperienced auditors safely through the process. Our customers have quantified time savings for key activities (case studies available on request):
