“The biggest benefit of BLR is the variety of ready-to-use forms, plans, and compliance resources. I would suggest to anyone considering BLR to spend as much time as possible on the platform early on to take advantage of all its capabilities.”

7 expert-backed digital audit best practices
- Start with a pilot audit
Test digital audits with one client or a single site before rolling out across all engagements. This helps identify workflow adjustments and ensures staff are comfortable with the platform. - Leverage prebuilt templates
Take advantage of industry-specific audit and inspection templates to save setup time. Customize only where necessary to match site-specific hazards or regulatory requirements. - Train your team early
Conduct a brief hands-on session for auditors before implementing the system. A well-trained team reduces errors and increases adoption rates. - Use mobile devices offline
Many sites have limited connectivity. Capture data offline and sync later to ensure inspections are complete, accurate, and uninterrupted. - Automate corrective actions
Set up triggers for follow-ups, notifications, and recurring inspections. Automation prevents missed actions and ensures compliance standards are maintained. - Standardize reporting
Use branded, consistent reports for every client or site. Standardization builds trust, demonstrates professionalism, and reduces the time spent formatting and compiling results. - Monitor analytics regularly
Use dashboards to track trends, recurring issues, and audit performance. This insight helps your team focus on high-risk areas and improves overall outcomes. - Plan recurring audits strategically
Schedule audits in advance based on regulatory requirements or high-risk areas to avoid last-minute rushes and ensure ongoing compliance.
