AssessmentWay™
Drives Continuous Improvement Through QA and Self-Assessment Programs
AssessmentWay™ centralizes, standardizes, and simplifies fleet administration of oversight audits, quality observations, and self-assessments with a template-driven approach that drives continuous improvement. It provides robust report templates for managing Quality Assurance (QA) audits and observations and Self-Assessment activities and reports. Audit and assessment scheduling, planning, team selection, and reporting work is performed entirely within AssessmentWay. Related actions such as the completion of grading forms and verification checklists are all managed alongside the report and governed by the underlying AssessmentWay template. Workflow tasks, assignees, standard scope elements and attributes, customized instructions, and all other sections of the audit or self-assessment process are managed by the program ownerAssessmentWay Benefits
- Centralizes, standardizes, and simplifies QA and self-assessment by governing underlying procedures, such as: verification checklists, grading forms, effectiveness reviews, plan approvals, external peers, fundamental behaviors, elements and attributes, and other options driven by the assessment or audit template.
- Routes QA and self-assessment tasks, such as plan approvals and report reviews, to appropriate task assignees with real-time email notifications; tracks QA action tasks that require completion prior to submitting an audit.
- Generates assessment and QA reports in a standard format tailored to each underlying template and automatically publishes to document management systems for quality record archiving.
- Pushes special notes and requirements directly to the audit team to support their activities at each stage of the process. AssessmentWay displays only relevant report sections (as selected within the report template).
- Associates negative audit findings and assessment gaps directly with Corrective Action Program (CAP) events.
- Promotes best practices with industry-standard scope elements and attributes, as well as a report comparing attributes audited against the master elements and attribute library.
AssessmentWay Plug-Ins
AssessmentWay Plug-Ins provide additional functionality that snaps into any AssessmentWay implementation.
- AssessmentWay Field Notes manages observations and associated facts that support plant self-assessments. When Field Notes are enabled for an assessment type, users can create observations directly from any assessment of that type. Users can add facts to an observation, then disposition and categorize them by functional or cross-functional areas, matching the actual INPO plant evaluation process. With AssessmentWay Field Notes, you can set up assessment and audit templates in minutes, map field notes directly to INPO Performance Objectives & Criteria (POC) codes, associate POC codes to each note for reporting, analysis, and search, and perform ad hoc reporting by POC code.
