by | Dec 2, 2024

Introduction

At SmartCert, innovation is more than a buzzword—it’s a partnership. We believe the most impactful advancements come from listening closely to our clients. That’s why we’re thrilled to share how LoneStar Group inspired our latest feature updates. These enhancements will not only help LoneStar achieve its efficiency goals for their cert process but also elevate the SmartCert experience for all companies invested in SmartCert’s features and automation.

Turning Client Insights into Solutions

LoneStar Fasteners and Hydrobolt defied opportunities for automation in their cert process. This included:

⦁ Automate the receiving and review process
⦁ Eliminate manual entry
⦁ Improve collaboration

By collaborating closely with LoneStar, SmartCert transformed these challenges into opportunities for innovation. Here’s how:

Feature Spotlight: What’s New in SmartCert

⦁ Cert Conformance Review
LoneStar needed a faster, more reliable way to ensure certifications met exact standards. Enter Cert Conformance Review:

⦁ Customizable Requirements: Tailor criteria for reviewing incoming certs.

      • Cert Intelligence Review: Automate compliance checks to save time and improve accuracy.

⦁ Centralized Chat
Certification processes often hit bottlenecks due to fragmented communication. With our new Centralized Chat, users can:

⦁ Communicate in real time directly within the platform.
⦁ Track version histories and updates seamlessly.

⦁ Merge SmartCerts and Cert Packages
Gone are the days of juggling multiple certifications. With this feature, users can:

⦁ Combine multiple certs into one cohesive cert package.
⦁ Create a clear audit trail, simplifying compliance reporting.

Manual data entry slows progress and invites errors. Our automated Cert Creation tool:
