Digital Transformation and Auditing
THE PROBLEM The South African Meat Industry Company (SAMIC), is an independent third-party regulatory body established by the Red Meat Industry Forum in 1997, and operates under the mandate of the Agricultural Product Standards Act to esnure the accurate classification and marking of meat for sale in South Africa. Beyond its core functions, SAMIC has diversified its services to include independent brand auditing, as well as quality assessments for hides, skins, wool, and mohair, which has bolstered SAMIC’s leading role in upholding product standards for livestock such as beef, pork and sheep. SAMIC recognized the need to modernize their operations and digitize their audit offerings, seeking to replace laborious, paper-based manual auditing processes and tools with a fully integrated digital platform to enhance efficiency and accuracy whilst maintaining excellence and operational compliance.
THE SOLUTION Reisiger's designed a fully digital, automated, and data-driven audit ecosystem that eliminates manual processing, enhances compliance accuracy, and enables real-time decision-making. The ecosystem empowers auditors to conduct seamless and standardized audits with ease, provides leadership with instant visibility into audit performance, and unlocks future revenue and return-on investment for SAMIC. A web-based Audit Builder & Management Platform serves as central hub for designing, managing, and overseeing audits. Providing administrators, compliance officers, and auditors with the tools to configure audit workflows, monitor compliance, analyze performance trends, and ensure regulatory adherence. A mobile application is designed for on-site and remote audit execution, providing auditors with an easy-to-use interface for conducting audits, capturing data, and synchronizing results with the central platform. It enables seamless, standardized, and efficient audits, even in offline environments.
