What IMS-Audit Cloud is
IMS-Audit Cloud is a browser-based suite for planning, conducting, and evaluating audits for integrated management systems. It supports internal, supplier, and international audits, including tablet-based on-site work, question-by-question ratings, findings, and automatic result calculations. Its actions module tracks corrective and preventive actions with due dates and escalation, while reports organize audit outcomes. Users can create question catalogues or import them through Excel; ready-made standard catalogues are sold separately. The service supports multiple plants or sites under one licence and lists eight interface languages. Translation of answers and catalogues uses the customer’s own DeepL API key. Security includes dedicated servers in a certified German data centre, separate company databases, TLS connections, optional two-factor authentication, and daily geographically separated backups. Availability is stated at 98.5% annually.
