The challenge
IATF 16949 is what lets Pàver supply the car industry. Every audit cost a week
For each audit, the team had to show where every supplier stood: on-time deliveries, non-conformities, certificate status and the final score. They rebuilt it all by hand, from three places that never talked to each other, and between audits nobody saw a supplier slipping.

What we built
Now XC Gradient watches every supplier, every day
The Access database, the 2026 non-conformity Excel and the AENOR and TÜV SÜD certificate registers now feed one place. Every supplier’s ISO 9001 and IATF 16949 certificates are checked every day at 07:15, and their websites every Monday.

Every quality audit used to cost me a week of hunting down the information and putting it together by hand. Now everything is connected, and every day I get the updates that matter.
