Industry measures everything and still loses the part that matters: the actions taken and the path to the root cause. IronStratos captures that path and guides it to closure, from the floor to the boardroom.
the gap
Scrap rate, OEE, first-pass yield, open findings. Every plant reports them. Far fewer can show what was done about the last one, who did it, and whether the root cause actually went away. The investigation lives in someone's head, the action lives in an email thread, and the proof lives nowhere.
What gets measured
Scrap. Downtime. Yield. Findings. Reported weekly, reviewed monthly.
What gets lost
The investigation, the decision, the corrective action, and the evidence it worked.
What IronStratos does
Captures the path from problem to root cause to verified fix, and reports it at every level of the organization.
the platform
One platform that starts at the machine and reports up. Mobile apps capture the investigation where it happens. Web dashboards turn those records into plant-level visibility. Enterprise rollups put every site on one page.
01 · The floor
Root Cause AI leads: conversational root cause analysis, 5 Whys, action tracking, AI-generated audit-ready reports, shift turnover, and AI-built SOPs. NConform extends it with NCR, CAPA, 8D, layered process audits, and training compliance.
Live on Google Play02 · The plant
Pro Web brings every investigation, CAPA, and audit into one view. OEE trends, downtime root causes, CAPA closure rates, gap assessments, audit scheduling, and supplier NCR tracking, with the evidence chain attached.
Web + mobile03 · The boardroom
Enterprise extends Pro Web across a group of plants: the same investigations, CAPAs, and audit records, at the seat count and support level a multi-site rollout needs.
Planned · on the roadmap: cross-site executive rollups, SOC 2 Type II (not yet certified), SAP / Maximo / Okta integration, BYO API and dedicated hosting.
Multi-sitewhy it holds up
Operators and technicians run a structured investigation from day one. The method is built into the conversation, so the discipline holds without a facilitator in the room.
ISO 9001, IATF 16949, AS9100, ISO 45001. Audit trails, evidence capture, and revision control built in — not bolted on.
Built for hard hats and gloves. Capture photos, voice notes, and signoffs where the work actually happens.
who it's for
The same record serves everyone with a stake in it: the technician who captured it, the manager who owns the action, and the executive who needs to see it closed across every site.
Quality Managers
See every open CAPA, nonconformance (NCR), and audit finding in one dashboard — with the evidence chain attached, ready for the next surveillance audit.
Plant / Ops Managers
OEE trends, downtime root causes, and corrective actions in one view. No more waiting for the weekly report or the Monday standup recap.
Maintenance Leads
Your techs describe the failure in their own words. The app walks them through a guided 5 Why on the spot — no certification, no training class.
EHS / Safety Teams
Layered process audits, safety observations, training compliance, and incident investigation all aligned to ISO 45001 — and linked back to the root cause that triggered them.

productPerspective
Most RCA tools start with a blank diagram. Root Cause AI starts with a question: "Tell me what happened." On a noisy floor, that is the difference between an investigation that happens and one that waits for a conference room.
productFrom a single cell to a multi-site rollout, IronStratos maps onto the quality system and standards you already run.
