Frequently asked questions
Why do manufacturers need document automation?
Because paperwork slows down production. Automation reduces errors, speeds up approvals, improves traceability, and ensures compliance without holding up the line.
How does Nutrient help with document automation?
Nutrient lets you build no-code workflows that auto-generate documents, pre-fill data from other systems, route for approvals, and store everything securely — all without disrupting shop floor operations.
Do production teams need tech skills to use this?
Nope. Most documents are filled out or reviewed using mobile- or tablet-friendly forms. Admins or supervisors manage the logic with a simple drag-and-drop interface.
How does this improve quality and compliance?
Automation enforces standard operating procedures, logs every action, and ensures required fields or checks aren't skipped — all helping you stay audit-ready.
Can this support multi-language or multi-plant operations?
Absolutely. You can configure workflows based on plant, region, or language — and still maintain global document control and standardization.
How quickly can we implement automated documents on the floor?
You can launch basic forms and approvals in a few days. More complex document flows (like batch record generation or cross-site SOP management) may take a few weeks.
