Organizations that report more deviations perform better
It sounds backwards, but it's true. AmpliFlow makes it easy to capture, follow up, and learn from every deviation — turning problems into improvements.
Manufacturing, services, or public sector. AmpliFlow handles deviations across all industries.
Why organizations with the most deviations are the healthiest
Most people assume that few deviations mean high quality. But the truth is the opposite: organizations with few reported deviations often have a culture that hides problems, not a business without them.
False calm
deviations per month
Problems are fixed informally or swept under the rug. The same mistakes repeat. Auditors ask questions. The costs are hidden but real.
Real visibility
deviations per month
Employees feel safe to report. Problems are caught early. Patterns become visible. Root causes get addressed. The organization learns and improves.

From signal to improvement in five steps
Every deviation follows a defined flow. No gaps, no forgotten actions, full traceability all the way.
Registered
Anyone can report using customizable forms
Analysing
Describe the cause and document the analysis
Acting
Assign responsible parties and set deadlines
Verifying
Confirm the corrective action solved the problem
Closed
Documented and searchable for future learning
Process linking
Link deviations to processes with 'Discovered In' and 'Originated In' to trace where problems actually come from.
Email notifications
Automatic notifications for new deviations, status changes, and overdue deadlines keep everyone informed.
Full audit trail
Every change is logged with timestamps and who made it. Complete traceability for ISO audits.
Customizable forms
Create different form templates for production deviations, customer complaints, and audit findings.
Import and export
Bulk import deviations via Excel to get started quickly. Export reports for management review.
Dashboards and trends
See reporting frequency, handling times, and recurring causes. Identify patterns that drive improvement.
A deviation is not an isolated event
In AmpliFlow, every deviation links to the processes where it originated, triggers corrective actions, and feeds data into management review. Nothing falls through the cracks.

Questions about deviation management
Common questions from organizations looking to get started.
Can we customize the deviation form?
Yes. You create your own form templates with the fields that suit your business. Different templates for production deviations, customer complaints, and audit findings. Each deviation gets an auto-generated number.
How does the workflow work?
Deviations follow a defined flow: Registered → Analysing → Acting → Verifying → Closed. You can add custom activities within each step. At closure, you select a reason: Resolved Fully, Resolved Partially, No Actions Taken, Not Actionable, or Postponed.
Does it meet ISO requirements?
Yes. ISO 9001 (8.7, 10.2), ISO 14001 (10.2), and ISO 45001 (10.2) all require documented deviation management with root cause analysis and corrective actions. AmpliFlow covers all requirements with full traceability.
Can all employees report deviations?
Yes — and that's the entire point. The more people who report, the better picture you get of reality. AmpliFlow makes it easy to report with customizable forms and clear instructions.
How are deviations linked to processes?
Each deviation can be linked to the process where it was discovered and the process where it originated. This gives you insight into where problems actually come from — not just where they surface.
Can we import existing deviations?
Yes. You can bulk import deviations via Excel so you get started without losing history. Export reports for management review or external audits.
