In practice

From the field audit to a closed NCR.

An example: Metalúrgica Alfa goes through its yearly supplier audit.

Illustrative example with fictitious data

  1. The audit goes on without signal

    The auditor fills in the checklist on the phone inside the plant, with photos and evidence, even offline. Everything syncs when the connection returns.

  2. The finding becomes an NCR

    The expired calibration found in the audit opens a nonconformity, with a deadline and an owner at the supplier.

    NCR-0142 · Expired calibration

    Open

    15-day deadline

  3. The supplier answers in the portal

    The supplier handles the NCR with an action plan or 8D and sends evidence through the portal, with no spreadsheets by email.

  4. Performance shows the result

    With the NCR closed and effectiveness verified, the history feeds the supplier's performance and risk.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost?

It depends on the system, the size of the operation and the modules. In the first conversation we learn what you need and send a proposal.

Can I see the system before signing up?

Yes. We run a demo with situations similar to your operation.

Can I bring the data I already have?

Yes. During rollout we help load the main records, including from spreadsheets.

Does it work without internet?

What is used in the field does: Hermes audits, Aristeu pest inspections and the Argo driver app keep working without signal and sync when the connection returns.

Can the AI change anything on its own?

No. It only looks at what the person can already see and prepares actions that happen only after confirmation.

Does it work over WhatsApp?

Important alerts can arrive on WhatsApp, and in Aristeu the Ceres assistant answers text, photos and audio.

Does it integrate with my ERP?

The systems have a REST API with access keys and webhooks. Hermes has read connectors for SAP, TOTVS and Oracle, and Argo exchanges EDI Proceda files.

Does it serve teams in other countries?

Yes. The interface is in Portuguese, English and Spanish, and so is the help center.
