What IMS-Audit Cloud is
IMS-Audit Cloud is a browser-based audit suite for businesses and public-sector organisations managing integrated management systems. It supports planning, conducting and evaluating audits, tracking actions, and producing reports. Auditors can work on-site with tablets, rate questions individually, record findings, and have results calculated automatically. Its actions module tracks corrective and preventive actions, including due dates and escalation. Users can create question catalogues or import them from Excel; ready-made standard catalogues are sold separately. The system supports multiple plants or sites under one licence and lists eight interface languages. Automatic translation uses the customer’s own DeepL API key, while Excel import and export are listed. The service runs on dedicated server hardware in a certified German data centre, with a separate database per company, TLS-encrypted browser connections, and optional two-factor authentication. Backups are made daily to geographically separated storage; the vendor states 98.5% annual average availability. Plans include all modules and unlimited audits, actions and reports, with tiers for one, five, 10 or 20 users. Pricing starts at €49/user/mo (annual).
