Paper cards pre-flipped. Excel reports written on Friday from memory. Every checklist marked done before the work was done — that's your operations report. Qards turns process discipline from a declaration into a live number you can manage.
90 days free. No credit card required.
Most operations run on the same informal system: people declare that work was done. Nobody can prove it was.
Your PM schedule lives in Excel. Weekly inspections share a row with daily lubrication and quarterly overhauls. Supervisors manually cross-check which tasks are due today. When a machine fails unexpectedly, nobody can tell you which scheduled check was missed — or when it was last actually completed.
Qards runs daily, weekly, and monthly maintenance tasks on a single mixed-frequency board — automatically scheduled, no calendar management required. Operators log each check with a 4-digit PIN in under 10 seconds. If a card is not green by its deadline, the shift manager sees it in real time on any screen, including the TV on the factory floor. Missed maintenance becomes impossible to overlook.
Our research predicts that factories deploying structured PM discipline on Qards see unplanned downtime exposure drop measurably within the first 90 days. When every check is timestamped and visible, maintenance gaps surface before they become breakdowns.
Laminated safety audit cards get marked done by whoever is standing closest to the board. When an auditor asks for documentation, you produce a binder of photocopied sheets — no timestamps, no operator attribution, no certainty about what actually happened. The most common audit finding is not that processes are bad. It is that you cannot prove your processes ran.
Every check logged in Qards carries the operator's name, PIN session ID, and precise timestamp — automatically, without a supervisor standing over the line. When an auditor arrives, the complete digital record is already there: who performed each check, exactly when, and what issues were raised during the period. No assembly required.
Our predictions show that Qards eliminates the most common audit finding: undocumented or unverifiable process execution. You shift from 'we believe it was done' to 'here is the timestamped record, attributed by operator, for every day this year.'
Your OEE target is 85%. Your line is running at 78%. You've been told discipline is good — 'the team is doing everything right.' But you cannot correlate what the team is actually doing with why OEE is falling. You are collecting KPI data without understanding which behaviors drive it.
Qards correlates your discipline rate — the percentage of tasks completed on schedule — with OEE and throughput using a four-quadrant analysis. WRONG_ASSUMPTIONS means tasks are being done but OEE is still low: your PM plan needs revision, not more enforcement. LACK_OF_DISCIPLINE means tasks are being skipped and OEE reflects it. AI-generated reports deliver Pareto breakdowns and MTD forecasts automatically, exported to PDF.
Our research suggests organizations using Qards for 90+ days can identify exactly which tasks have measurable impact on their KPI targets — turning continuous improvement from a theory into an evidence-based practice.
The subscription is not a cost. It is insurance against the failure modes you currently cannot see coming.
A single unexpected machine failure in a mid-size plant can mean tens of thousands in lost production. Our research predicts consistent PM discipline on Qards reduces this exposure within the first quarter — because you see the missed checks before they become failures.
ISO, safety, and customer audits increasingly require documented, timestamped, attributable process records. Paper and Excel cannot provide these. A failed audit means re-audit costs, consultant fees, and potential production halts — all preventable with a complete digital record.
When your experienced supervisor leaves, so does the informal discipline system they maintained. Qards encodes operational discipline structurally — the board runs the same way regardless of who is on shift, new hire or 20-year veteran.
No IT project. No training program. No change management budget.
Define your tasks, frequencies, and operator areas. Mix daily safety checks, weekly inspections, and monthly audits on a single board. Takes under an hour.
Workers tap their profile and enter a 4-digit PIN. Each completed task is timestamped and attributed. The whole interaction takes under 10 seconds — less time than flipping a physical card.
The dashboard shows execution rate, open issues, and weekly trends in real time. TV Mode displays the live board on any screen on the floor — visible from the corridor without system access.
