VISTAR module

Cut the workload behind your certifications.

CertOptiX maps the compliance work your site actually performs, traces every activity back to the requirement that demands it, and shows you where the effort is duplicated, over-controlled, or no longer linked to anything external at all.

The problem

Every control was added for a good reason. Together they add up.

A back-end site running ISO 9001, IATF 16949, ISO 14001 and ANSI/ESD S20.20 has four compliance systems layered over a decade. Every finding added a control. Almost nothing was ever removed.

The work is spread across departments, so no single manager ever sees the total. It is paid every year in indirect labor, by your quality engineers, process engineers and shift leaders.

Estimator

What is one audit cycle actually costing you?

Put in your own occurrences, hours and rate. Nothing here is our estimate. The greyed figures are examples only.

The reduction slider is a what-if. What CertOptiX does guarantee is that every hour it proposes to remove is traced to a document, mapped to a requirement, risk-rated, and given a validation method before you touch anything.

How it works

CertOptiX finds the workload that is not doing any work

1

Ingest

Your procedures, audit records, CAPA, training matrices and approval workflows.

2

Extract with evidence

Every activity is logged with its department, frequency and a verbatim excerpt. No excerpt, no entry.

3

Trace to the requirement

Each activity is mapped to the requirement that actually demands it, across ISO, IATF, ESD and customer drivers.

4

Score deterministically

A versioned model sets priority, not the AI. Anything carrying high customer risk is held back for validation.

5

Report and defend

Evidence, traceability, scored findings, and a phased roadmap with a validation method for every change.

The principle

The AI explains. The rules decide.

In a certified environment, a recommendation nobody can trace is worth nothing. The AI reads documents, extracts activities and drafts findings. Priority, risk gating and every number in your savings case come from deterministic, versioned logic, printed in the methodology section of every report.

What you get

A findings report your auditor can follow

A CertOptiX assessment typically returns 20 to 40 findings. Each one carries a verbatim excerpt from your own document, the requirement behind it, a risk rating, and a validation method to prove the change is safe before you make it.

SAMPLE FINDINGF-02

Three ESD verification activities satisfy one requirement

ConsolidationBenefit: highQuality, Manufacturing

Monthly audit walk, quarterly floor check and an annual verification all trace to the same clause of ANSI/ESD S20.20. Two are duplicates of the third in scope and frequency.

Ask for the sample assessment

We will send you a full anonymised report, so you can see the evidence tables, the traceability, and how the findings are scored and prioritised.

  • Full sample assessment as a PDF
  • Or a live walkthrough of the tool on a call
  • No obligation, and nothing about your site is needed to start
CertOptiX never recommends removing a control a standard, a regulator or a customer requires. It does not replace your auditors, and it never invents a savings number. Every figure comes from your own occurrences, hours and rates.
Who this is for

Sites carrying real certification obligations

Back end

OSAT and assembly and test sites

Where the audits, the evidence and the approvals all land at once.

Automotive

Automotive semiconductor manufacturing

IATF obligations, customer-specific requirements, and the workload that comes with both.

Components

Electronics and components manufacturers

Any site carrying ISO, IATF and ESD obligations side by side.

Teams

Quality, operations, EHS, engineering, and site leadership

The people who carry the compliance load, and the ones who own the budget for it.

How to start

Start with a diagnostic. Scale to a platform.

Size the opportunity first. Commit to the full assessment once you have seen what is there.

CertOptiX Light

A guided diagnostic for a single site that wants to size the opportunity before committing to anything.

  • Guided site profile and standards scoping
  • Upload a limited document set: selected procedures, audit checklists, CAPA or 8D samples, training and calibration records
  • Compliance workload summary across departments
  • Requirement traceability check against ISO, IATF, ESD and environmental drivers
  • Top duplicated and over-controlled processes
  • Top simplification opportunities, with risk rating and validation method
  • Missing information and clarification questions
  • Savings line items, quantified by your team with your own figures
  • Executive summary report, export ready

CertOptiX Pro

The defensible assessment. Evidence-backed, deterministically scored, and built to survive a management review and an external audit.

  • Everything in Light
  • Full QMS document library ingestion, multi-site and multi-department
  • Evidence table: every activity carries a verbatim excerpt and its source document
  • Requirement library mapping across ISO 9001, IATF 16949, ISO 14001 and ANSI/ESD S20.20, plus internal and customer drivers
  • Deterministic priority scoring, versioned model, high compliance or customer risk gated to Validate first
  • Compliance workload heatmap by department and activity category
  • Audit evidence readiness score, with requirement areas that have no mapped activity
  • Review workflow: accept, reject or annotate every finding before it enters the report
  • Phased implementation roadmap and an audit-safe change justification package
  • Continuous monitoring of new procedures and audit findings

CertOptiX is a module inside VISTAR

CertOptiX runs on the VISTAR platform: the same secure ingestion, retrieval, reasoning, orchestration, policy and reporting engine used across the SilTest semiconductor AI modules. On your own infrastructure, on-prem or private cloud.
