The 5 WHY method

The 5 WHY method is one of the methods to detect the causes of problems. This is the principle we use to determine the root cause of the problem. Asking a few "Why?" questions allows you to get to the source of the disruption, thoroughly investigate the cause, and focus on solving it effectively.

New version of the system

The new version of icmInspector introduces more than 20 changes and corrections to the previous functionalities. We have introduced new types of questions and tools for increasing the reliability of inspections using NFC cards for employees. We are constantly trying to make every quality control and inspection performed with icmInpector faster and more accurate.

RPA in Quality Control?

RPA (Robotic Process Automation) is a set of ICT solutions enabling the automation of, among others, repetitive business processes. The group of such tools includes physical robots performing repetitive activities (e.g. in production, storage), but also applications and modules that automate repetitive tasks based on known rules, which were previously performed manually by a human, system user or process actor.

How does icmInspector protect us against the effects of COVID-19?

Every company has been affected in some way by the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. Each company also began to take measures to minimize the threats that began to appear as a result of COVID-19. The icmInspector system is a tool that, in certain areas, perfectly helps us protect ourselves against certain threats, and more precisely with the effects of sudden and temporary absences of employees from the company.

How to? - Automatic analysis of quality control results.

Carrying out even the best quality controls on products is only half the battle. The other half is the analysis of these results and the introduction of actions as a result of this analysis. The faster we analyze the collected data, the sooner the corrective actions will start. In this post we present how to use icmInspector system to build scenarios for the automatic analysis of quality control results and how to manage activities resulting from detected irregularities.

How much can you save by implementing icmInspector?

icmInspector system introduces automation in many elements of processes that are implemented in every organization. The following table presents a comparison of the time of implementation of individual elements in the variant of work with paper documents and with icmInspector tool.

How to? - Inspections of installations, production lines, facilities with icmInspector?

Functioning of facilities, installation, production line is associated with the need to carry out various inspections and reviews. This need has its source in law regulations, warranty requirements or results from the need to maintain Lean or 5S procedures. How can you implement these processes with icmInspector?

How to? - Objective quality control.

Quality control helping to improve quality of the product must be objective. If quality control process allows a subjective possibility of assessment, we automatically increase the risk that individual batches of the product will be different from each other and their quality will depend on the person performing the control and not on the requirements and assumptions posed to our product. So how do you build an objective quality control scenario?

How to? - 5S (Lean Manufacturing) with icmInspector?

5S is a set of techniques and methods aimed at establishing and maintaining high quality jobs. 5S is at the same time one of the basic tools of Lean Manufacturing and Lean Management, because it is directly related to the proper organization of work environment, improvement of organizational culture of the company and – very importantly - allows to increase process stability.

How to? - Good scenario of product quality control.

One of very important elements of the quality improvement process is quality control process. Quality control process itself consists of many elements, but its most important element is the scenario. How quality control scenario is prepared determines whether t entire control process will have a positive effect on the quality of the product or - on the contrary - will reduce it. So how do you prepare a good quality control scenario?

Quality control implemented in Home Office mode? It’s possible!

Recently, a somewhat forced mode of remote work (Home Office) causes some processes in the organization implemented on-site (in the place of their execution in the enterprise) become a threat to the entire organization. Inability to fully implement these processes remotely or to implement them on a part-time basis can cause far-reaching negative effects. Quality Control is one such process.

Starting from today, inspections and reviews will be pure pleasure!

It is often the case that management finds out about problems in the production process, machine downtime and a number of other undesirable actions with delay. In addition, this is incomplete information, and short, unclear messages. This prevents you from taking the necessary and quick action.

Internal control completed successfully!

To start with, we should define the scope of control, train controllers and inform employees about the purposes of control or internal audit. This basic operation will allow us to carry out internal control efficiently and reliably.

How does a mobile application help in control processes?

A few words about the mobile application in control and its superiority over the paper version of documents. Why does traditional control need to be changed? Carrying out a thorough check involves blocking many resources. This means people, their time and money.
