Why LPA software?

The Layered Process Audit (LPA) is a regularly conducted, multi-stage process audit carried out directly at the workplace. It ensures that critical processes, standards, and agreements are reliably adhered to at all company levels (layers). With the help of straightforward checklists and direct process reviews involving managers, you can identify deviations at an early stage and ensure that workflow steps are carried out reliably. Due to the high frequency and direct auditing of processes at different levels, LPAs require structured planning and seamless tracking.

The LPA Software supports you with automated audit planning, binding action tracking, and real-time transparency. This helps you prevent manual errors, media breaks, and a lack of traceability.
