GoSmarter for Compliance Management
Stay compliant without slowing down production
Automate mill certificate management, material traceability, and quality documentation — so your next audit is ready before anyone asks.
Key Capabilities
Mill Certificates
Read, extract, and store data from mill test certificates automatically — no more typing chemical compositions off a photocopy.
Material Traceability
Track every piece of material from goods-in to despatch with a complete, auditable chain of custody.
Quality Documentation
Capture inspection records and quality checks digitally at the point of work — linked to the right order, every time.
Compliance Reporting
Generate audit-ready reports in seconds. No more hunting through filing cabinets the week before an inspection. EN 10204 type 3.1 and 3.2 certificate formats supported as standard.
Export Your Data Anytime
GoSmarter is hosted in the EU and built for GDPR compliance. Export all certs, stock records, and audit trails as CSV any time. No exit fees. No lock-in. Your data stays yours.
The Opportunity
Nobody gets excited about compliance. It’s a necessary evil that eats up time and kills productivity.
Turn it from a burden into a background task. GoSmarter reads mill certificates automatically: heat numbers, grades, chemical compositions, and mechanical properties. Every cert links to the relevant stock item in your live inventory. No typing. No filing. No hunting for a PDF the day before an audit.
When a job calls for S355J2 bar and the cert says S275, GoSmarter catches it before the material leaves the rack. Wrong grade, missing properties, heat number that doesn’t match the delivery note. GoSmarter catches it automatically. Your best engineer can stop squinting at spreadsheets.
Whether you’re a rebar supplier, a plate processor, or a cut-to-length service centre, the cert workflow is the same headache. The fix is the same too.
Start with certs. Most customers are live within a day, processing their first batch automatically within the hour. Once your certs are linked to stock, the rest follows naturally: cutting plans, order traceability, audit reports.
AI That Actually Works
Forget the buzzwords. We just automate the boring stuff so you can go home on time. Stop doing compliance by hand.
Why GoSmarter
We take the pain out of compliance. Save time and stop making mistakes.
- Fast Processing - 60% faster certificate processing. Teams handling 200+ certs a month typically recover 8–12 hours of admin time per week within the first month. Stop typing, start working.
- Catch bad stock before it hits the saw - GoSmarter does not just read your certs; it checks them against what you ordered. Wrong grade, missing mechanical properties, a heat number that doesn’t tie to the delivery note. GoSmarter catches it before the job starts. That is the difference between a data extraction tool and a metals-specific compliance platform.
- Optimised Yield - Stay compliant and profitable. Stop wasting material just to be “safe”.
- No rip-and-replace - GoSmarter reads certs from your email inbox, shared drives, or ERP attachments. It works with whatever cert workflow you have today. You do not need to change how your suppliers send certs.
