The lean-stack take
For a lean team it moves layered process audits off paper. Audits by each management layer are planned and recorded, and findings become tracked tasks with escalation.
Best for
Manufacturers, often in automotive or aerospace supply chains, that want layered process audits inside a full quality management suite.
Watch out for
LPA is one module of the CAQ.Net suite, so ask whether it can be licensed alone and what it costs.
About
About CAQ LPA Software
CAQ LPA Software is the layered process audit part of CAQ.Net, a quality management suite from CAQ AG Factory Systems in Germany. It sits beside the suite's audit management, action management and inspection modules.
Written by lean-stack from CAQ LPA Software's public pages. Vendors can replace it with their own description by claiming this profile.
Features
What CAQ LPA Software offers
Layered process audits
A dedicated LPA software page covers planning and running tiered audits. This supports leader standard work and regular checks at the gemba.
Audit management
The suite also has a general audit management module. Teams can run LPAs next to system, process and supplier audits.
Task and escalation management
Task and escalation management tracks actions from findings. This closes the loop from audit to corrective action.
Web applications
Quality management web applications give browser access to parts of the suite. This matters for auditors working away from a desk.
Wider quality suite
CAQ.Net also covers APQP, control plans, inspection planning, calibration and change control. IATF 16949 and AS 9100 solution pages show its focus on regulated manufacturing.
Deployment and integration
The vendor offers CAQ.Net on premises or as SaaS. It has an SAP interface and a system integration page.
Embedded AI
A CAQ.Net embedded AI page describes AI features in the suite. Their scope for LPA was not confirmed in this check.
Lean techniques supported
The lean practices CAQ LPA Software is built to support.
