5 Tips to Set Up Your High QA Software for Success
Implementing new quality software is a major step forward and choosing High QA puts you on the right path from day one. Now it’s time to integrate it into your environment so your team can start seeing real results.
Implementation doesn’t have to be overwhelming. With the right plan, you’ll accelerate adoption, eliminate wasted time, and unlock the efficiency gains High QA is built for.
Below are five essential tips to ensure a smooth, successful rollout.
5 Tips for a Strong High QA Implementation
1. Appoint a High QA Champion
Every successful implementation needs an internal leader. Your champion drives communication, coordinates tasks, and works closely with the High QA Customer Success team. They’ll receive in-depth training and guide your internal rollout to keep everyone aligned and accountable.
2. Set Clear Goals & Implementation Phases
Define exactly what you want to achieve with High QA, for example:
-
Reduce inspection plan creation time by 50%
-
Eliminate paper-based inspection paperwork
-
Centralize and streamline data collection
-
Move toward fully digital PPAP/FAI workflows
Clear goals help prioritize features, shape timelines, and ensure your configuration is built around real outcomes, not assumptions.
3. Plan for Training & Internal Alignment
Your team will be involved throughout installation, configuration, and training. Allocate time upfront and ensure departments stay connected.
Workshops, weekly check-ins, and shared progress updates help keep momentum strong and prevent delays.
4. Prepare Your IT Team Early
Bring IT into the process from the start. Installation and setup will require their support, and a prepared IT team keeps implementation moving quickly so users can begin working inside High QA sooner.
5. Be Open to Evolving Your Quality Processes
New software often uncovers better, more efficient ways of working. High QA will recommend best practices during your implementation. While every decision is yours, staying open to process improvements helps you get the most out of the platform.
Keep the Momentum Positive
Even intuitive software requires adoption strategies. Maintain strong engagement:
-
Share wins and early improvements
-
Make time for user feedback
-
Reinforce goals and progress
-
Celebrate milestones
Positive adoption is the key to long-term success.
After Your High QA Go-Live
Once High QA is in place, build skills steadily. Every user will move at a different pace, and that’s okay. Support ongoing learning through:
Lunch & Learns
Informal, collaborative sessions for brainstorming, questions, and best practices.
Peer-to-Peer Sessions
Let power users coach newer users, reinforcing real-world productivity gains.
Self-Guided Learning
Encourage your team to dive into High QA Academy, videos, webinars, and reference guides.
