Build Quality Into Your Process From the Start
Our connected worker platform moves your quality department from passing inspections to preventing failures.

Catch and resolve defects faster
Give operators a structured defect reporting workflow at their workstation — with digital forms, photo capture, and automatic routing to the right supervisor the moment a non-conformance is detected. Connect every defect report to issues, corrective actions, and trend analytics so your quality team can close gaps faster, reduce recurrence, and improve OEE.
Build audit readiness daily, not just on inspection week
Give auditors digital checklists with ready-made templates, automatic deviation flagging, and immediate issue creation — so every quality audit produces a complete, timestamped record without manual assembly after the fact. Track scores, deviation trends, and corrective action closure across shifts and sites so your quality team is always working from current data.


Document every critical control point check at the point of execution
Deliver scheduled CCP checks to operators' devices with configurable critical limits, automatic timestamping, and immediate escalation when a reading falls out of spec. Build the verifiable monitoring record that proves food safety and HACCP compliance happened on schedule — and help your documentation stand up to any audit, announced or not.
Find the root cause and make sure the fix actually sticks
Guide quality engineers through a structured 5 Whys investigation triggered directly from a defect report. Get prompts at each level, a linked corrective action assigned to a named owner, and closure tracked to completion. Build a searchable library of past root cause analyses so your team can verify whether a fix held before the same problem surfaces on another line.

Although Riviera was consistently passing our annual inspections, we weren't satisfied with a score of 86%. We knew we could do better.

More Tools for Quality Visibility, Compliance, and Audit Readiness
Poka supports the full quality management cycle.
Check out how +3,000 sites across manufacturing, energy, and mining use our connected worker platform for quality.

Gemba Walks
Structure quality-focused gemba walks with digital checklists. Every observation gets logged. Findings are assigned to owners. The walkthrough creates an actionable record.

Process Monitoring
Capture in-process parameters digitally against configurable thresholds. Alerts and corrective actions happen right away when readings are off-spec. Prevent the process from drifting further instead of waiting to find the defect later.

Metal Detector Checks
Digitize metal detector test records. Include structured verification steps, confirm test pieces, and add a timestamped operator sign-off. Build the food safety documentation your auditors require from every check, every run.

Frequently Asked Questions
First Pass Yield (FPY) measures the percentage of units produced correctly without rework, repair, or rejection. It's one of the most direct measures of quality performance.
Poka improves FPY by targeting root causes: digital work instructions reduce inconsistent execution, process monitoring catches in-process deviations, and frontline defect reporting catches problems earlier. Nortek saw a 13% FPY improvement after implementing Poka.
Poka builds audit readiness into daily operations. Every quality check, CCP record, defect report, and corrective action is digitized, timestamped, and organized as it happens. When an auditor asks for records, you can pull them in seconds. Maison Riviera went from an 86% SQF score to one their quality team was proud of.
No. Poka is not a QMS. It's a connected worker platform that fills the gap between your QMS and the factory floor. Your QMS handles document control, audit management, and CAPA workflows. Poka handles how quality gets executed at the machine. The two integrate through open APIs so quality events flow into your QMS automatically.
