Dear all,

 

As the title suggests, I'm building software to help food companies prepare for their audits.

 

I'm not looking to sell over here, although I'm happy to share more info if you're interested. :) I would just like some answers to very basic questions for which I'll be very grateful.

 

I'm hearing that QA managers use a lot of excel but I would like to understand better for what it's used? I know from experience how hard it is to prepare audits, although in another industry. Could you share your 3 biggest frustrations?

 

My software basically does 2 things; centralise artefacts and optimize preparation through AI.

 

Thank you!

A lot of companies still use basic MS office tools for audits.  Often audits are completed using word as a record and then corrective actions tracked on Excel.  So all it's being used for is a list with raised / completion dates, owners etc.

 

There is already a lot of internal audit software out there and some sites have chosen not to invest in it.  It might be worth trying to find out why that is and what the competition offers before investing to much time / energy.
