Check inspection results against the specification
Certant compares each recorded batch result with the limit in your approved specification table and shows the specification version beside every verdict.
Outer diameter recorded 40.18 mm. Approved limit 40.00 ± 0.10 mm.
Which revision did the inspector use?
A result of 40.18 mm passes under one revision of the specification and fails under the next. The inspection record gives the measurement and doesn't say which revision the inspector had open.
Checking afterwards means finding the specification that applied on the day and reading the batch record against it, one batch at a time.
What Certant reads
Results are matched to a specification by product code and measure.
| Document | What it supplies |
|---|---|
| Batch and inspection records | The batch, the product, each measure and the recorded result. |
| Approved specifications | The limit for each measure, with the revision and the date it took effect. |
| Product register | Product and part codes, so a batch is checked against the right specification. |

The quality manager approves the escalation
For a result outside tolerance, Certant drafts an escalation with the inspection record and the specification page attached. The quality manager reads both before deciding what to do with the batch.
Certant doesn't release, hold or certify a batch.

What setup involves
We map your product codes to their specifications and agree which measures to check. Then we run a recent set of batch records and compare the verdicts with the ones your team reached.
| Area | What to expect |
|---|---|
| Inputs | Certant checks the results written in the reports you supply. It doesn't inspect images or detect defects itself. |
| Versions | Each result is checked against the revision in effect on the inspection date. |
| Decisions | Escalations wait for a person. Certant makes no change to production and issues no quality certificate. |
