Case Study: Global Tire Manufacturer eliminates systemic quality problems with EASE Inc.

Global Tire Manufacturer Innovates with EASE to Eliminate Systemic Quality Problems

Global Tire Manufacturer, a large automotive supplier with more than $2B in annual revenue and manufacturing sites worldwide, was struggling to run layered process audits (LPAs) with paper checklists and spreadsheets. The manual approach made scheduling, data entry, reporting, and mitigation tracking time-consuming and limited the company’s ability to scale audits across all plants. The company turned to EASE Inc. and its EASE platform to simplify audit administration and improve quality oversight.

With EASE Inc.’s mobile, cloud-based audit solution, Global Tire Manufacturer automated audit scheduling, streamlined data collection, and gained real-time visibility into findings. The team now completes more than 200 audits per week, closes mitigations faster, and uses dynamic question banks and focus questions to identify repeat and systemic issues across equipment and plants before they become customer-facing escapes. The result has been stronger root-cause analysis, better management buy-in, improved documentation, and faster detection of hidden quality risks.
