How does the auditor save time thanks ViaSyst for drafting an audit report?
The auditors using ViaSyst confirm that they save in average 1.5 to 2 hours per audit report. How can this happen?
Everything is based on the fact that all information is managed as data, and that data can be automatically retaken, without copy/pasting. This principle applies at all possible levels, cumulating innumerable savings. Some examples:
- the applicable audit report format and the corresponding checklists are automatically generated by opening the audit, without any possible error,
- the data entered in the programme planning (e.g. audit duration, audit type, auditor, audit date) are retaken in the audit report,
- the organisation data (e.g. name, address, scope, standards) entered at the client creation retaken in the audit report,
- the data from previous audit can be retaken and proposed in the new audit report as authorized by the CB (e.g. organisation profile, auditees, number FTEs, general impression, …),
- audit notes and findings can be captured by vocal recognition with attached pictures through the offline auditing App and directly transferred to the audit report folder,
- prepopulated fields are available within the audit report folder, with either proposed text options, check-boxes, or similar time saving editing facilities,
- the entire client’s history with previous reports and findings is fully available and mapped through comprehensive views, allowing easy NC completion follow-up,
- the checklist tool scores and displays automatically the achieved level, according to the scheme’s features,
- the software automatically checks the report completion before validation by the auditor,
- and many more …
Altogether, this generates the substantial savings confirmed by the auditors.
But that’s not all: there are also great savings at back-office level! Have a look at the corresponding FAQ.
