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):

  • Planning - 80% 
  • Carrying out (mobile deivices) - 20%
  • Prozessing of Findings - 60%
  • Reporting - 90%

SCIIL eLPA Software offers: 

  • Creation of question catalogs with up-to-date image and text instructions
  • Automated audit date scheduling for 1st and 2nd layers; manual for higher management layers
  • Outlook invitations sent automatically, with reminders and missed audit visualization
  • Audits captured on mobile devices (iOS, Android, Windows) with text and photo documentation
  • Monitoring of audit dates and results via online dashboards
  • Browser-based issue management for findings: root cause analysis and action tracking
  • Instant access to findings and action lists
  • Comprehensive documentation and traceability
  • Facilitates identification of systematic problems
  • Web reporting and online dashboards
  • Group reports available for multiple locations
  • Multi-language support
