AM System explains

What is a deviation?

A deviation can be defined as anything that prevents you from following agreed standards, routines, or instructions for a process or task. It can involve a broken tool, defective raw materials, machine issues, or workplace safety concerns. Deviations can also result from human factors such as lack of knowledge or misunderstandings.

What all deviations have in common is that they pose an increased risk to the business and should be managed systematically to prevent negative impacts on quality, safety, or efficiency.

Template-based and customizable deviation management

One of AM System’s greatest strengths is its user-friendliness. The platform offers ready-made templates for deviation reporting, making it easy to get started. These templates include standard fields and sections that can be used as they are or customized to fit your specific needs.

For example, you can add fields to collect information about the type of deviation, location, responsible person, and priority. Additionally, data from other systems, such as ERP or production systems, can be imported to further simplify administration.

When the process is digitalized, many organizations experience an increase in the number of reported deviations. This is a positive change that provides valuable insights into operations, helping you prioritize the right actions and make well-informed decisions based on concrete data.

From registration to resolution – full control over the process

AM System’s deviation management module makes it easy to track each deviation from registration to resolution. With status settings such as “Registered,” “In Progress,” “Resolved,” and “Closed,” you have full control over what happens and when.

The system also enables monitoring of lead times and key performance indicators (KPIs), making it simple to evaluate whether processes meet your goals. Once a deviation is closed, it can be archived and retrieved when needed—for instance, to analyze trends or follow up on specific problem areas. The standardization of selectable lists and fields streamlines the follow-up process.

The Query Builder function allows you to create, save, and share advanced searches. This means you can quickly generate real-time statistics and reports—an invaluable tool for gaining a clear overview and making data-driven decisions based on a shared understanding of the current situation.
