Electronic Logbooks

While automation has vastly improved the gathering of process data on the plant floor during the last decade or two, operator logbook technology has not advanced past paper journals at most facilities!  AuditMatic, from Form Automation Solutions,  addresses this neglected aspect of plant operations, providing you with modern database tools to easily gather and disseminate important operations records throughout your facility or enterprise.  Whether installed on a computer at your facility, or hosted at our secure data center and accessed over the Internet, AuditMatic has you covered.

No software needed

Because users access AuditMatic using their desktop web browser, no software is needed to be installed at operator workstations. Operators use the Internet Explorer web browser at their workstation to login to the AuditMatic system to make logbook entries, run reports or administer users and forms.

Text and e-mail alerts

Want to make sure that notification of  important observations or out-of-the ordinary conditions gets to stakeholders quickly? AuditMatic’s notification engine can send out text message and e-mail alerts to stakeholders within seconds. AuditMatic’s audit trail includes time alerts were sent and acknowledged.

Mobile Data Collection

AuditMatic also supports offline handheld data collection. If you wish, data collected during operator rounds in the plant can be integrated into your AuditMatic database. Simply purchase AuditMatic handheld computers and synchronize them with your AuditMatic server. The mobile computer can now replace your clipboard and pen. Provide decision support reference material and SOPs to operators at their fingertips,. Include photo capture, GPS capture and other data capture capabilities that paper just can’t touch.  Automatically export rounds data  to your DCS/Plant Historian without transcription delays and errors!

Task Management

Want to set a regular data collection schedule and have AuditMatic do all the nagging and compliance reporting? AuditMatic allows you to easily configure multiple one time and recurring data collection tasks. AuditMatic will send out reminders to operators and alert task mangers if data collection isn’t done on time. AuditMatic even compiles comprehensive compliance reports to help monitor how well your unit, plant or Enterprise meets its data collection schedules.

Maintain your own data entry forms

Every operating unit or site is different, so AuditMatic provides simple data entry Form and report creation tools to allow non-technical users to customize their own logbook entry forms and related reports. You can be up and running with an AuditMatic electronic logbook solution in less than one day.

Data Retention

AuditMatic keeps all your log entries in a database, not in filing cabinets or stacked on a tabletop. The AuditMatic database can be backed up and data stored in a digital archive for years, eliminating the type of data loss you currently have when paper logs go missing.
