How it worksElement tracking

Every unit leaves with its own record. The proof travels with it.

CONQA element tracking builds a per-unit QA record – for the element, the board, the member, the joinery item – of what it is, who made it, and that it was made right, independent of any other system.

Proof attaches to the unit, not the job folder.

When a failure is questioned, the question is never about the job – it’s about one unit: this panel, this board, this member, this window. A job folder can’t answer that; a per-unit record can. CONQA ties every check, photo, and sign-off to the individual unit as it moves through production, so what leaves the factory carries its own record. “This is how it left us” only works if you can show it.

The element register – 418 elements, 418 closed – every unit's record attached to that unit, not to a job folder.

Every check, photo, and sign-off tied to the individual unit as it moves through production.

The record survives the file, the person, and the project.

Your units go into someone else’s build and stay there – and the record proving they were right is a stack in a tray, a photo on a phone, a spreadsheet one wrong click from gone. CONQA’s per-unit record is permanent, retrievable, and yours to keep: exportable in full, independent of the production stack, there however long from now someone asks. The unit outlives the paperwork it left with. The record should outlive both.

A permanent record per unit – retrievable years on, exportable in full, yours to keep.

Every element you make will outlive you. Your proof should too.

Cleared to ship, with the record to show it.

Element tracking gives dispatch a clean signal: nothing leaves the yard without a record that says it’s cleared. And because every unit already carries its own proof, the client pack assembles from records that exist – not from a scramble through folders the week the handover is due. The same per-unit record that clears the truck is the one that answers the client, the audit, and the dispute.

Dispatch sees a clean signal – cleared or not – and the handover pack assembles from records that already exist.

Common questions

What is element tracking in manufacturing QA?

Element tracking gives every unit you make – a precast element, a board, a member, a joinery item – its own QA record: what it is, who made it, the checks it passed, and the state it left the factory in. The record travels with the unit into someone else’s build.

How long does the element record last?

As long as the element. The record is permanent, retrievable and exportable in full – it survives the file, the person and the project, and it’s still there when someone asks about a unit years after dispatch.

What happens when an element is disputed years later?

The record answers. Whatever is wrong defaults to the maker until you can show the state the unit left you in – the per-element record of checks, photos and sign-offs is that answer, without anyone digging through folders for a job nobody remembers.

You know it’s right. Now prove it left you that way.
