Quality
Quality records that finish when the inspection finishes
Quality managers and inspectors walk the site, take photos, and voice their findings like they always have. Now the ITRs, defect reports, and inspection records draft themselves, ready for review and sign-off.
Powered by Storm
Voice notes, photos, measurements become completed quality records.
Built in Dashpivot
One platform for quality, safety, site diaries, inductions, and timesheets.
Works offline
Capture quality data on-site with the mobile app, even without internet.
Audit-ready
Every record is timestamped, signed, and exportable for ISO 9001 audits.
What is a Quality Management System (QMS)?
A quality management system is how a company defines, inspects, and proves the quality of its work, from inspection test plans and commissioning sheets to defect management and audit evidence.
QMS software brings it into one place: records captured on-site as the inspection happens, approvals in real time, and handover documentation that's always ready.
Why use a Quality Management System
Deliver consistent quality at scale
Run the same inspection and testing standards across every site, lot, and crew. No more hoping each team applies them the same way.
Reduce defects and rework
Catch issues at hold and witness points, not at handover. Log defects, route them, and close them out before they hit a client report.
Build traceable evidence
ITPs, ITRs, and acceptance criteria build a clean audit trail that proves quality met spec. No more chasing test records before audits.
Real-time defect visibility
Quality managers see every open defect, severity, and status across projects. No more reconciling spreadsheets at month-end.
Stay audit-ready
ISO 9001 and industry quality standards require timestamped, signed records. A quality management system maintains that trail automatically.
Continuous improvement
Defects, non-conformances, and audit findings feed back into procedures and ITPs. Each finding makes the next one less likely.
Every quality workflow, powered by AI, controlled by your team
From inspections and ITRs to defect management and handover, here's how teams use Dashpivot to run their quality workflows. AI handles the documentation. Your team stays in control.
Quality Inspection
Inspection reports draft themselves as quality managers walk the site. No more typing up notes back at the office, no more delayed findings.
Identified from photos captured on-site
Photos are captured during the walk. Non-conformances and severity ratings are identified from what's in the image.
Transcribed from voice observations
Voice notes are converted into written findings with measurements and corrective actions structured.
Date and location captured automatically
Date, GPS location, and assignment details are populated automatically from the device.
Inspection and Test Plan (ITP)
ITPs draft themselves from project specs and scope of works, with hold points and acceptance criteria pre-populated. No more starting from scratch, no more missed checkpoints.
Built from a description or existing document
Describe the work scope or upload an existing ITP. The template is built with hold points, witness points, and acceptance criteria
Filled from on-site inspection
Inspectors record results at each checkpoint. Observations are mapped to the right row with pass/fail status applied
Signed off before the phase starts
The quality manager validates hold point outcomes, confirms acceptance criteria are met, and approves before the next phase begins
Defect Management
Defects get logged the moment they're spotted, with photos and location attached. No more scattered spreadsheets, no more rejected handovers.
Captured the moment it's found
Photos of the defect and surrounding area are attached to the record automatically.
Transcribed from voice description
Voice descriptions become structured defect records with trade classification and project phase.
Tagged with location, ready for severity
GPS location and severity are populated from the device, ready for assignment.
Inspection and Test Record
ITRs capture themselves as inspections happen on-site. No more remembering measurements hours later, no more missed details.
Captured during the test
Photos of test setups and results are tagged to the corresponding test entries automatically
Transcribed from voice measurements
Voice recordings of measurements and observations are mapped to test method, value, and equipment fields
Auto-matched to acceptance criteria
Pass/fail status against tolerances is applied automatically based on the recorded values
