How it works
You send files. We send a reviewed pack.
Your QMS stays as it is, and there is nothing to install or log in to. Below is each step and whose job it is.
-
Check your fit · you, about 2 minutes online
Five questions: your next IATF audit or customer deadline, your standard, what you can export, whether any of it is restricted, and your role. You see a result on screen straight away.
-
Our founder reviews your answers · by email
Submitting the fit check emails your answers to our founder, who reads each one personally and replies to confirm the fit, or to ask about anything that needs settling first. Nobody is signed up or charged automatically.
-
Agreement, templates and invoice · from the founder, by email
With the fit confirmed, the founder emails you the Audit Defense Pack Services Agreement, the Excel templates with their guide, and an invoice. Packs 1 to 5 are $3,500 at the founding price. Nothing is paid online.
-
Sign, pay, fill in the templates · you, about 2–4 hours
Sign the agreement and pay the invoice. Then paste your existing exports into the templates: CAPA and 8D, nonconformances, PFMEAs, control plans, PPAP status, gauge studies, supplier scorecards and the rest. Missing or mistyped cells turn a colour, so you can correct them before sending. Leave the formatting alone, and return the files through the private upload link we email once the invoice is paid.
-
We check the data, build the pack and review it · us, five business days
Before any file is loaded, a person opens it. On the day we accept your data you get an email saying so, or one listing precisely what is still needed. The five-business-day clock starts here.
The platform scores readiness against IATF 16949, checks your customer-specific requirements were flowed down, connects findings that share one cause, and ranks the actions. Then an automotive quality professional reviews every page before it is released.
-
Review call · together, 60 minutes
When the pack is ready you get a link to book the review, and the files reach you as the call opens. Section by section, we cover where the plant stands, which evidence holds up, and the order to tackle the fixes in.
What you send
The minimum set of templates:
- CAPA / 8D log
- Nonconformances (NCR log)
- Calibration list
- Training matrix
- Supplier list
- Document register
- Audit findings
32 templates are available in total, including PFMEAs, control plans, PPAP, SPC, MSA, layout inspection, customer-specific requirements and CQI special processes. Each one you add widens what the pack can judge, and it names anything it could not.
What we cannot take
Personal data beyond names, employee IDs and roles, and your customers' confidential program data (for example TISAX-labelled drawings or vehicle program information) beyond what the quality records themselves contain. Not sure whether a record counts? Ask us before you upload it.
What a person does
- Checks your data before the clock starts
- Reviews every page before you see it
- Runs the review call with you
A person signs off every compliance conclusion before it leaves us.
