Automated checks and handheld scanning in place of paper, so you can show your auditor who checked what, and when.
Step one is a free half-day Quality Evidence Walk. Keep the write-up either way.
No charge for the software, set-up or training. Your site supplies the handheld scanners and IT access.
Free, because handheld scanning is new and we want five sites to shape it with us. If it works for you, we would like to tell others about it in a case study.

Quality Evidence Walk
A free half-day visit, on a day you choose. We follow one check from the line to sign-off and send you a one-page write-up, which is yours to keep whatever you decide.
A pilot place
If it is a fit, we offer you a pilot place on one area of your site, and aim for your first scan within a month of our first conversation, given the IT access we need.
An honest testimonial or case study, if it works. It is not a condition of your place.
A decision meeting at the end of the pilot.
If it works, you can move onto a paid licence. If it is not right for you, there is no obligation.
Any manufacturing site that still records at least one quality check on paper. Places are offered by fit, not first come first served: the form asks a few questions about your site so we can judge the fit together.
There is no charge for the software, set-up or training. Your site supplies the handheld scanners and the IT access. If it works and you want to carry on, you can move onto a paid licence.
Within a month of our first conversation, provided we have the IT access we need. The pilot runs on one area of your site, as one proof of concept.
Handheld scanners, which your site supplies, and the IT access to set it up. We do the set-up and train your operators.
No. We recommend running your paper sheets alongside until you are confident, but that is your call.
As little as we can make it. We do the set-up, and we fit around your shifts, production runs and audits rather than asking you to fit around us.
You do. If you stop, we export it for you.
Not yet generally available. It is being finished now, the pilot sites will be its first users, and we will confirm it is ready before your pilot starts.
There is no obligation. If the pilot does not work for you, you stop, and that is the end of it.
You work directly with the person who built Opcela Quality, from the first conversation to your first scan.
Director & Founder
Jacob has spent five years building industrial software and kept meeting the same thing: plants running systems written decades ago, with nothing newer available. He founded Opcela to build the alternative. He has a first-class honours degree in software engineering from Sheffield Hallam University, and works across the entire lifecycle, from the initial conversation to a deployed and maintained system.
Only 5 places are available, because that is all we can handle right now, so apply now. It takes about two minutes. We read every application ourselves, and we reply to applications within 2 working days, then arrange everything around your site's schedule.
