Incident Management Software for Highest Quality Standards

What is Incident Management Software?

A digital incident management solution allows quality teams to record incidents, handle them properly, and resolve them to improve safety and compliance. An incident in the quality management process is an unexpected quality issue, such as process deviation or a major event like equipment failure or safety hazards, that can disrupt operations and lead to temporary downtime and regulatory non-compliance.

Effective incident management plays a vital role in meeting the expectations of diverse regulatory guidelines and quality assurance protocols. It involves systematic steps to identify, analyze, resolve, and document incidents while taking corrective and preventive actions to avert issues that can impact the quality of a product or service or compromise its safety.
