Evidence-first non-conformance management for manufacturing

From defect to verified closure, with the evidence attached.

Fixyro captures non-conformances where they're found: the part, the photo, the measurement, the operator and the document revision. That evidence then stays with the case through containment, disposition and quality sign-off.

Works alongside your existing QMS, ERP or MES.

Built in Derby by a manufacturing engineer. Now being introduced through a small number of pilot programmes.

Sound familiar?

Your NCR isn't the problem. The evidence around it is.

A defect gets photographed on someone's phone. The measurement stays on paper. The NCR is raised later, from memory. The decision gets chased by email. Then the auditor asks to see the evidence, and someone spends an afternoon rebuilding it.

"I watched a customer's buyer drive to a supplier every single week, just to find out whether a non-conformance had been closed. That's the problem Fixyro was built to fix."
Vysakh Velayudhan, founder

"Where's that NC up to?"

Nobody knows without walking the floor, checking the tray or ringing the cell lead. Your customer asks, and you have to find out.

Blank boxes found at audit

The gauge number, the date, the second signature. Missing fields only get noticed when the auditor asks for them.

The wrong revision

The part was checked carefully against a drawing that was superseded last week. Nobody finds out until the customer does.

Signed by the wrong person

The operator's qualification lapsed last month. The paper form accepted their signature anyway.

Rejects nobody can trace

Three months on: which part, which batch, who sentenced it, and was it actually scrapped? The answer is in a cabinet somewhere.

Trends you can't see

Is it the same defect on the same cell every month? Somebody would need to retype a stack of sheets into Excel to find out.

The workflow

From defect to verified closure

One case, one evidence trail. Every step is recorded against the non-conformance: who did it, when, and against which revision.

  1. 01

    Capture

    The operator scans the part label, photographs and marks up the defect, and records the measurement on your own form.

  2. 02

    Contain

    The part goes on hold in the quarantine queue, with a tag and a known location, so it can't drift back into production.

  3. 03

    Decide

    Use as is, rework, concession or scrap, with the evidence and any previous concessions on the same screen.

  4. 04

    Approve

    Quality signs off the decision. Operators can't clear their own NCs, and every step is recorded against a named person.

  5. 05

    Close

    A complete, searchable record with its full history, ready to export or hand to an auditor.

Root-cause tools and corrective-action tracking are being developed with our pilot sites.

What it looks like

Built for the shop floor first

No new way of working. Fixyro takes the forms you already use and puts them where the work happens, with the checks built in.

Your form, not ours

Every factory's NC sheet is different, and your operators know where every box is. We rebuild your existing paper forms in Fixyro so they look the same, then add the things paper can't do.

  • Same layout as your paper sheet, so there's no retraining
  • Required fields can't be left blank
  • Photos of the defect, marked up on the screen
  • Rework, concession and scrap decisions go to quality for sign-off

Every entry records who did it, when, and against which version of the form.

Scan the part. The right document opens.

Point a tablet or phone at the part label. Fixyro pulls up the job, the current work instruction and the right form, and checks the operator is qualified before they start.

  • Barcode, QR and Data Matrix labels
  • Work instructions served at the current revision
  • Forms only open for people with the right qualification
  • Works in a browser on any tablet, or as a Windows app

See it all, the moment it happens

Every NC, reject and quarantined part lands in one live register. Quality managers see what's waiting for them, and plant managers see which cell and which defect keeps coming back.

  • Searchable NC register with one-click Excel export
  • Quarantine queue: what's on hold, where it is, who's deciding
  • Give your own customer a read-only view, without your data leaving your site

Fixyro runs on a machine inside your own network. Nothing leaves unless you decide it should.

Already using SAP, a QMS or SharePoint?

Keep it. Fix the evidence gap.

Fixyro isn't another system to replace the one you have. It's the evidence layer between the shop floor and your quality system: it captures what happened, where and when, so the record you keep is complete.

A pilot doesn't touch your existing systems. We start with one form on one line.

Built for industrial environments

  • Runs on your premises. Installed inside your own network, not on someone else's cloud.
  • Your data stays yours. One database per customer, and nothing leaves your site unless you choose to share it.
  • Role-based access. Separate rights for operators, engineers, quality and admins.
  • Qualification checks. Forms only open for people whose credentials are current.
  • Full audit history. Every change to a record is logged with who, when and what.
  • Exportable records. Excel and CSV export of your NC register at any time.

Who it's for

Everyone who touches the record

Built for manufacturing quality teams, from a 20-person machine shop to a multi-site manufacturer, and the customers they supply.

Operators & inspectors

The sheet they know, on a tablet. The right drawing in front of them, and no rewriting a page because of one mistake.

Quality managers & engineers

Prove every NC was captured, contained, decided and signed off properly. Cases arrive with photos and context, not a half-legible note.

Operations & plant managers

What was made, what was rejected and why, today, instead of in a month-end spreadsheet.

Small & mid-size suppliers

Get off paper without an enterprise IT project, and show customers evidence instead of promises.

Large manufacturers

One consistent way of recording NCs across lines and sites, without forcing every cell onto a single generic form.

Customers & primes

Live sight of your suppliers' non-conformance status, without the weekly drive to their site. Their records stay with them.

Sectors: aerospace · rail · pharmaceutical & medical device packaging · precision engineering · fabrication & welding · any regulated manufacturer

    Founding pilot programme

    Looking for manufacturing sites to pilot Fixyro

    Fixyro is being introduced through a small number of pilot programmes with manufacturing teams. We measure where you are today, run Fixyro on one real NCR workflow, and measure again.

    1. Discovery call

    30 minutes. We map how your site handles non-conformances today, find the evidence gaps, and decide together whether a pilot makes sense.

    • No sales script
    • Bring one of your real forms

    2. Pilot

    We record a baseline (time to raise, chase and close an NC), then run Fixyro on one form on one line, on your site.

    • Your form, rebuilt to match
    • Direct line to the person building it
    • Runs inside your network

    3. Decide

    You get the before-and-after numbers. If Fixyro earns its place, roll it out on founding-partner terms. If not, you keep your data.

    • Founding-partner pricing
    • Your say in what gets built next

    "I've investigated quality escapes with no measurement data, no record of who did the work, and paper trails that were damaged or incomplete. Every feature in Fixyro comes from something I've watched go wrong on a real shop floor."

    Frequently asked questions

    It replaces paper NCR (non-conformance report) sheets and spreadsheets with a digital system for recording, reviewing and closing out defects and deviations. Fixyro goes a step further: it captures the evidence where the problem is found, on the shop floor, in a form that looks like the one your team already uses.

    Is your site a fit for a pilot?

    You'll talk to the engineer building Fixyro, not a sales team. 30 minutes, your process, an honest answer.
