Eurofast transforms Quality Management with AlisQI’s flexible QMS

Eurofast, a European leader in fastening systems for flat roofs and cladding, partnered with AlisQI to implement a flexible and centralized Quality Management System (QMS). This case study explores how Eurofast streamlined its quality processes, improved audit efficiency, and enhanced transparency across its operations.

In this case study, Michał Kowalski, Product and Certification Manager at Eurofast, and Anke Hayward, Quality Assurance Employee, discuss:

• The challenges of managing fragmented data and outdated systems
  How Eurofast struggled with inefficiencies caused by scattered data and a rigid software system

As Eurofast expanded to operations in 25 countries, the complexity of managing quality processes across multiple production sites grew significantly. Data was scattered across multiple departments throughout the company, making it time-consuming to locate and manage critical information. Adding to the difficulty, the company relied on outdated software that wasn’t designed for quality management. “The previous software we used wasn’t tailored to QC or QMS,” says Michał Kowalski. “It was rigid and couldn’t adapt to our needs, making audits and daily tasks inefficient.” 

Eurofast selected AlisQI for its unique combination of flexibility, user-friendliness, and scalability. As a no-code platform, AlisQI empowers users to create tailored workflows that address specific business needs without requiring external consultants or IT expertise.

This adaptability was crucial for Eurofast, whose quality management processes vary across multiple production sites. “The system is incredibly intuitive,” shares Anke Hayward, Quality Assurance Employee at Eurofast. “I configure most of it myself, including ISO compliance workflows and quality control tests, which saves us time and resources.”

Unlike their previous tools, which were restrictive and unable to accommodate the company’s evolving requirements, AlisQI enabled Eurofast to dynamically adjust workflows and centralize quality-related data. This centralization not only streamlined operations across all locations but also improved collaboration by connecting teams through a shared platform. 

The adoption of AlisQI has delivered transformative results. Centralizing quality-related data has eliminated the inefficiencies caused by scattered information, allowing teams to access critical data instantly. This has been particularly beneficial during audits, where the ability to present information digitally has reduced preparation times significantly. Moreover, the transparency provided by AlisQI has fostered better communication across departments, ensuring alignment on quality standards. 

Eurofast sees AlisQI as more than just a tool for managing quality: it is a strategic asset that will support the company’s growth and operational efficiency in the years to come. Looking ahead, Eurofast plans to make AlisQI the central hub for all quality-related activities. The company envisions extending the system’s use across all production sites while integrating it with other enterprise tools, such as ERP systems, to create a seamless operational ecosystem. Automating additional workflows is also a priority, as it will further enhance efficiency and allow teams to focus on strategic tasks.
