VOITH

Since 1999, Voith has been choosing Loyal Solutions for its integrated document management. Mauro Pires , Quality , Safety and Environment Manager at Voith South America, explains that it was at a trade fair for small and large companies that he first came across the digital platform.

The software and the constant support of Loyal’s professionals made the relationship between the companies grow stronger over the years, understanding Voith’s needs and providing customised solutions. The same happened during the Covid-19 pandemic, a period in which the aim was to improve the user experience.

In this regard, Pires highlights the adaptability and flexibility of Loyal’s digital platform to Voith’s specific needs, taking into account its external and internal requirements. He also emphasises the technical support team’s assistance in dealing with server variations and security system updates.

With the new scenario that the pandemic has subjected most companies to, bringing a large number of employees into a hybrid regime in which the mobile office has become a frequently adopted option, it is essential, according to Pires himself, to keep all documents and quality management tools continuously and securely available.

Regarding this point in particular, Pires underlines how intuitive and user-friendly the user interface is, especially when it is necessary to quickly and easily locate documents or perform other quality management tasks.

Loyal Solutions also contributed to the ISO 9001, 14001, 45001 certification processes, and to the planning of Voith audits audits, being a fundamental tool to implement and manage corrective actions.

In this regard, Loyal and Voith are currently working on the implementation of two new modules: Risk, which allows the generation of controls and action plans to mitigate identified risks; and Compliance, which manages in a simple way the requirements and regulations that organisations must comply with, intervening in the identification, correction of irregularities and compliance with standards.
