How Smart Workflows Automate Manufacturing Compliance
Set Up Compliance Tracking in Infodeck
Follow these steps to automate your manufacturing facility's compliance program. Each inspection from the checklist above becomes a scheduled, tracked, and documented task.
Create Recurring Work Orders by Frequency
Group compliance tasks by frequency (daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, annual) and create recurring work orders. Infodeck auto-generates them on schedule.
Build Digital Inspection Forms (SOPs)
Create standardized forms for each inspection type. Include pass/fail checkboxes, measurement fields, photo requirements, and digital signatures.
Connect IoT Sensors for Continuous Monitoring
Position sensors for machine guards, environmental monitoring, and equipment status. Smart Workflows auto-create work orders when conditions indicate non-compliance.
Generate OSHA-Ready Reports
When OSHA compliance officers arrive, export complete compliance history with one click. All inspections, training records, and corrective actions documented.
