Remote Audit & Inspection Technology
Enable your staff to audit remotely and improve accuracy, productivity while eliminating the travel time. Remote audit and inspection is used for quality and inventory audits, safety inspections and many more auditing use cases.
Traditionally, accounting and consulting firms send junior- to mid-level staff to client offices, factories or warehouses where they spend several hours or even weeks to complete auditing tasks. This results in travel costs, poor work-life balance and productivity losses for both firms and their clientele. As enterprise wearable solutions become increasingly robust, accounting firms are seeing benefits of remote auditing.
Digital Transformation of Audit & Inspection
Site Conditions
Problem
The onsite working conditions depend upon various factors like climate, lighting, technical equipment, noise and worker safety.
Our Solution
The solution should enable hands-free operations. Our voice-enabled Realwear device is PPE compatible, meets durability standards, and is certified to work around hazardous materials.
Connectivity
Problem
Some companies may not have modernized facilities that can maintain a stable internet connection.
Our Solution
The wearable solution used for remote audit or the vendor involved should be able to support limited bandwidth connections.
Information Security
Problem
Remote auditing relies on-premise video streaming, so clients could be concerned about information and digital security.
Our Solution
The solution must protect transmitted data (such as end-to-end encryption, SSL etc.) and ensure that no data is stored/misused. RealWear assisted reality solutions feature enterprise-grade security.
