Layered Audit
A Workshop Taught at Your Plant
Why hold a Layered Audit Workshop?
-
To better understand how to use the tools for identifying potential risks and failures throughout the entire manufacturing process.
-
To help meet or exceed customer requirements and expectations.
-
To provide a sound strategy for continuous improvement within the Quality Management System.
The Layered Audit process, driven by the disciplines of standardized work, strategically links process control, process parameters, dimensional verification, error proof verification, and documentations. Properly implemented, the LAYERED AUDIT PROCESS becomes a comprehensive part of the quality system.
What Will You Learn in a Layered Audit Workshop?
In this one-day workshop taught at your facility, you will learn about the five core elements proven effective in understanding and developing a comprehensive system. Using your own manufacturing processes as examples, we will cover the following:
-
Mechanics of a Layered Audit. You will learn how to develop the Layered Audit in all areas of disciplines where control is needed. We will identify the factors of risks that generate the audit of disciplines.
-
Development Tools. We will supply you with the tools and knowledge to use these tools to develop and sustain your Layered Audit System.
-
Problem Solving Techniques. Through problem solving non conformances, you will develop and maintain a continuous improvement system to enhance controls and the ROI that evolves.
-
Error Proofing Verification. You will learn how to verify that your error-proofing processes and measures are being implemented consistently and correctly.
-
Action Planning. You will evaluate your current Audit Plan and develop and gap analysis, translating the gap items identified into action plan items. Each action item will have an owner to facilitate its completion and verify its effectiveness.
