The implementation of SoftExpert Suite automated the “My Brilliant Idea” innovation program, enabling real-time access to data through dashboards and cutting paper usage across the plant by 80%. The system has already registered over 15,000 ideas, supported by streamlined workflows.

In addition, centralizing more than 5,000 digital documents across 30+ departments has eliminated rework and improved information reliability. Audit processes were also transformed: what previously required time-consuming manual searches through paper and spreadsheets is now simple and fast, with everything organized and linked in the platform. By integrating nonconformity management with action plans, Hyundai also speeds up problem resolution while ensuring consistent compliance with the industry’s high-quality standards.
