Do not engage in any more delays in finding the right and quick resolution for non-conformance and closing the issue in time with complete customer satisfaction with the
NC module.
Common Problems Faced by Businesses
Various businesses, when on the track of growth and expansion, face immense challenges in properly managing an effective NC management system. And some of them are highlighted below.
Inconsistency and Unaccountability
Handling issues/non-conformances without any proper module can result in improper identification of the root cause, incomplete analysis, as well as slowness in ensuring corrective and preventive actions, etc. Additionally, nobody is responsible for the NC, which results in increased NC closure duration.
Missed opportunities for Improvement
Addressing Non-Conformances (NCs) in a timely manner is crucial, as it presents an opportunity for continuous improvement. For instance, if a supplier consistently delivers defective goods and an NC is raised to rectify this, it opens the door to cost-saving measures and a reduction in defects. Failure to address NCs promptly could result in missed opportunities for enhancing processes and overall efficiency.
Double-edged Dissatisfaction
NCs come in two forms—internal and external or customer-related. Failing to raise an NC or promptly attend to a customer complaint can lead to customer dissatisfaction. Timely resolution of customer-related NCs is essential to maintaining a positive customer experience and safeguarding the reputation of the organisation.
The Risk of audit and regulatory Compliances
The maintenance of an NC management system is not only a best practice but also a requirement of ISO Standards and customer audits. Neglecting to adhere to these standards poses risks in terms of compliance and regulatory scrutiny, potentially impacting the reputation and legal standing of the organisation.
Difficulty in escalation of Critical non-conformance Issues
In the absence of a digitised solution, prioritising critical non-conformance issues becomes a challenging task. Without a systematic approach to categorising and addressing issues, the organisation may struggle to efficiently plan and execute actions for resolving critical matters, leading to potential disruptions in operations.
Lack of Standardisation
Traditional on-paper systems face challenges in establishing a standardised process flow. The absence of standardised processes can result in missed timelines and a lack of accountability. A digitised solution addresses these shortcomings, providing a structured framework that ensures adherence to timelines and promotes accountability throughout the NC management process.
Problematic Collaboration and insufficient Concurrent Actions
Complex non-conformances often require collaborative efforts from individuals across different departments. A dedicated NC module facilitates efficient collaboration by allowing organisations to assign specific tasks to individuals with set deadlines. This ensures that multiple stakeholders can work cohesively to address and close NCs, promoting a collaborative and streamlined approach to problem-solving.
No centralised NC data Collection, Analysis, and Reporting
The absence of an NC module results in a lack of centralised data collection, hindering the organisation's ability to analyse data effectively. Without real-time analysis, recurring errors may go unnoticed, leading to inefficiencies and increased costs. The reliance on physical files with individual users for NC maintenance also poses challenges, as it restricts accessibility and inhibits progress tracking. A digitised solution addresses these issues by centralising data, enabling real-time analysis, and providing a transparent platform for efficient reporting and review.

Automating Assurity.
The NC module aids you in driving continuous improvement as well as ensuing on the path to increase effectiveness of closures by recording, tracking, resolving non-conformances.
Ready Workflows and Templates
The implementation of the NC module goes beyond mere task management by providing a sophisticated framework for creating standardised workflows and templates. This feature enables organisations to not only streamline their operational processes but also assign specific tasks to designated users, fostering a systematic and organised approach to addressing unique challenges associated with Non-Conformances (NCs). This ensures a level of consistency in handling tasks, promoting efficiency and reducing the likelihood of oversight.
Quick Reminders and Alerts
In the realm of task management, the automated reminder system within the NC module plays a pivotal role in maintaining operational punctuality. When tasks are assigned or delayed, this automated system promptly notifies users, serving as a proactive mechanism to encourage timely task completion. By integrating this feature, organisations can significantly reduce the risk of delays, contributing to the overall efficiency of their processes and the adherence to predefined timelines.
Reduced COPQ (Cost of Poor Quality)
Efficient closure of Non-Conformances (NC) directly impacts the bottom line by reducing the Cost of Poor Quality (COPQ). When NCs are addressed in a timely manner and with monitored efficiency, the associated costs, including those related to rework and customer dissatisfaction, are minimised. This emphasises the critical link between effective closure practices and the financial health of the organisation.
Dynamic progress review and monitoring
The digitised system's capability for real-time progress review and monitoring of open NCs is a game-changer in terms of agility and responsiveness. This feature allows organisations to dynamically track the status of ongoing tasks, facilitating quick response times and informed decision-making. Real-time insights empower management to make data-driven decisions, fostering a culture of continuous improvement and adaptability.
Faster time in closing customer complaints
The timely and efficient closure of NCs not only addresses internal operational challenges but also directly translates into a faster resolution of customer complaints. By streamlining internal processes, organisations can enhance customer satisfaction levels. This underscores the interconnectedness of internal efficiency and external customer relations, emphasising the broader positive impact of effective closure practices.
Helps in managing priorities
The module's structured approach extends to assisting organisations in managing priorities effectively. By providing a systematic framework for issue resolution, the module enables organisations to prioritise and address important issues in a methodical manner. This, in turn, contributes to the overall efficiency of operations by ensuring that resources are allocated judiciously and that critical issues are promptly and systematically resolved.
Had these Questions?
In this module or feature, one achieves an enhanced visibility into recurring and critical issues through centralised and easily accessible data. This feature aids in proactively identifying, addressing, and mitigating potential challenges.
Through the utilisation of assigned workflows, increased accountability, and constant review the effectiveness of NC closure is significantly improved, leading to enhanced overall quality management.
The module provides a centralised database generation for the effective monitoring of actions, collection of information as well as reporting, both physical as well as in real-time. Also, without any proper NC module, there is a delay in finding resolution for NC and closing the issue.
This module on the cloud-based platform, standardises and efficiently tracks and monitors information and results, digitally, at a centralised location to increase the speed of collaborative actions and enable a continuous improvement.
