Audit type — product & process audits (LPA)

Product & process audits, checked against the control plan

Take product and layered process audits to the shop floor. Check each parameter against the control plan across samples 1 to 5, grade defects A, B and C, give a compliance verdict per requirement, and produce a product audit report — with the department, cavity and control-plan header on top. Fast Audit serves quality- and compliance-driven manufacturers of every kind, cloud or on-premise, across India and worldwide.

Why shop-floor quality teams choose Fast Audit

The product-audit problems every
shop floor recognises

Product audits are done on loose check-sheets

Readings are scribbled on a paper sheet at the machine and filed in a folder. Nobody can find last month's audit, and a drifting parameter is invisible until a customer complaint.

The check-sheet doesn't match the control plan

The audit form was built once and never re-synced with the control plan. Parameters change, tolerances change, and the audit checks something the drawing no longer requires.

Defects aren't graded, so nobody prioritises

A cosmetic mark and a functional failure look the same on the sheet. Without A/B/C grading, the team can't tell which finding to act on first or which cavity is the real problem.

Layered process audits never actually layer

Operators, supervisors and managers are meant to audit the same standardised work at different intervals. On paper, only the operator layer ever happens, and the plan quietly lapses.

How Fast Audit fixes each one
Every check captured, not filed awayParameter checks are recorded on mobile against samples 1 to 5, with the department, cavity and control-plan header. Every audit is retained and searchable, so a drifting parameter is visible at once.
Checklist built from the control planThe product-audit template carries the control-plan parameters and specifications, so the audit checks exactly what the plan requires — and updating the template keeps every future audit in step.
Defects graded A / B / CEvery defect is graded on the floor, and a non-compliant requirement becomes a finding with an NC category. The team sees which defect and which cavity to act on first.
LPA that actually layersPlan the same process checklist at each layer's frequency, assign the right auditor, and let reminders and dashboards make every layer's audit visible — so the plan holds.
Product & process audit lifecycle

From a control-plan checklist to a product audit report —
one audit, one traceable trail

Every product and process audit follows the same controlled path — template, plan, competent auditor, parameter checks, verdict and closure — so the floor is audited on process, not on a paper check-sheet.

Non-compliant requirements close through CAPA sign-off; the product audit report records parameters, samples, defects and verdicts
01 — Control-plan checklist

The audit built from the control plan

Author the product-audit template with the control-plan parameters and specifications, plus the header the shop floor needs — department, cavity or mould numbers, sample reference and control-plan number. Every planned audit copies this template, so the audit checks exactly what the control plan requires; update the template and every future audit stays in step with the drawing.

02 — Plan & layered process audits

Every layer, audited on its own frequency

The audit plan generates product and process audits by frequency and count — so a layered process audit becomes real: the operator layer daily, the supervisor layer weekly, the manager layer monthly, all auditing the same standardised work. The plan is routed for approval and shown on a calendar, and reminders keep every layer's audit from quietly lapsing.

03 — Parameter checks on the floor

Samples 1–5, defects A / B / C

During checklist entry, each product-audit requirement carries structured sub-fields: the parameter being checked, observations for sample 1 through sample 5, defect counts graded A, B and C, and a remark. The auditor records the actual reading per sample against the control-plan specification on a phone or tablet, so a parameter that drifts out of tolerance is captured with the sample it was seen on — and flagged as a non-conformance on the spot.

04 — Verdict, CAPA & report

A verdict per requirement, closed and reported

Each requirement gets a compliance verdict; anything other than fully complied becomes a finding carrying its parameter, the discrepancy and an NC category graded major or minor. Corrective action runs on a multi-role sign-off — auditee, coordinator, auditor — with due dates and reminders. When the audit closes, the product audit report lays out the header, each requirement's parameter checks, sample 1–5 observations, defects A/B/C, verdict and remark.

05 — Druv AI audit analytics

Ask your product-audit data questions — in plain English

Druv AI is the Fast Suite's AI analytics module. It gives quality managers a role dashboard over live audit data, a natural-language chat that turns a plain-English question into a query — validated through a read-only security sandbox — and clustering that groups defect and observation remarks into labelled themes, so a parameter or a cavity that keeps failing surfaces without anyone hunting for it.

Everything Fast Audit covers
for product and process audits

Control-plan checklists

Reusable product-audit templates carrying control-plan parameters, specifications and the department, cavity and control-plan header — reused across every audit.

Plan & LPA schedule

Product and layered process audits generated by frequency and count, a layer per interval, routed for approval, with a day, week and month calendar.

Auditor competency

Score auditors against criteria, attach evidence, and record authorised audit types — so only qualified auditors conduct each layer of a process audit.

Parameter checks

Mobile checklist entry records parameter checks across samples 1–5, defects A/B/C and a compliance verdict per requirement, with answered-versus-total progress.

Findings, NC & CAPA

Out-of-tolerance requirements become findings graded major or minor and closed through auditee, coordinator and auditor sign-off with due dates and reminders.

Product audit report

The formatted product audit report plus auditee, auditor and HOD dashboards and the NC register — parameter checks, samples, defects and verdicts in one place.

FAQ

Product & process audits —
what shop-floor quality teams ask us

What is a product audit here?

A check of parts against their control plan on the floor — carrying a department, cavity and control-plan header, with parameter checks, samples 1–5, defects A/B/C and a verdict.

Does it support layered process audits?

Yes. Plan the same process checklist at each layer's frequency — operator, supervisor, manager — so an LPA actually layers, with reminders and dashboards keeping it honest.

How are parameters, samples and defects captured?

Each requirement carries the parameter, observations for samples 1 to 5, defect counts A/B/C and a remark — recorded on mobile against the control-plan specification.

How does the compliance verdict work?

Each requirement gets a verdict; anything other than fully complied becomes a finding graded major or minor and tracked to closure through multi-role sign-off.

What does the product audit report contain?

The company and part header, then each requirement with its parameter checks, specification, sample 1–5 observations, defects A/B/C, verdict and remark.

Can it run on-premise and standalone?

Yes. Fast Audit runs cloud or on-premise and works standalone — no other Fast product is required to run your product and process audits.
