Build Quality into Every Process

Ensure quality is built into every process by integrating standardized instructions, automated quality practices, data collection, and quality checkpoints. VKS Pro empowers you to capture key production and quality data while interactively error-proofing your process.

  • Digital Checklists & Forms

    Create digital checklists and forms to appear at key points during a process to capture measurements, serial numbers, digital signatures, part numbers, inspection information, and even perform automatic mathematical equations.

  • Interactive Guidance

    With process confirmations, quality validations, and final inspections, VKS Pro keeps workers engaged, guaranteeing error-proof processes and accountability every step of the way.

  • Connected Tools

    Use connected barcode scanners, calipers, scales, and other devices to streamline data collection, integrity, and accuracy.

Create Responsive Workflows

Your work instructions need to be as flexible and dynamic as your shop floor. VKS Pro enables you to create responsive workflows based on the current conditions of the process, unit, and the specifications of the work order.

  • Rule Engine

    Create IF/THEN rules to responsively guide workers through dynamic processes. These rules can automatically open digital forms, send automated messages, trigger specific workflows, and navigate to specific steps of a work instruction.

  • Automate Notifications

    Automatically notify leaders of key events such as non-conformance reports, productivity performance, and Andon actions. Use this tool to ensure quality teams and operations managers instantly receive the information they need.
