MyCQ: Designed for Infrequent ComplianceQuest Users to Complete Assigned Tasks
MyCQ is a personalized user interface that allows infrequent and casual CQ users to access ComplianceQuest’s EQMS and EHS solutions. It is designed to perform any assigned actions such as training, approvals, or sign-offs, access documents, and quickly enter reports such as complaints, incidents, or change requests wherever they are.
MyCQ is a Key Feature to Building an Enterprise-wide Quality and Safety Culture
A study by American National Standards Institute (ANSI) reveals that the cumulative cost of disengaged employees (in North America) adds up to $550 billion a year. On the other hand, when the workforce is highly engaged, profitability improves by about 21%.
Broadly, the key drivers of building a quality culture include:
- Collaborative engagement among employees, quality team, and executive management
- Quality and credibility of messaging, wherein positive quality-related routines are appreciated and rewarded
- Strong peer-to-peer communication without fear of blame
- A sense of ownership among all team members

Taking Ownership of Problems
A culture of quality requires the active participation of the employees in quality processes by actively observing, identifying, and resolving quality issues. They should be invested in these processes and take ownership instead of doing it because it is mandated. To achieve this,
- They should be able to share and communicate their ideas and observations quickly, without delays
- They do not lag behind in achieving their work-related goals
- They are able to track and monitor progress on their reports and suggestions and problems are resolved in a timely manner
Challenges to Employee Participation
The involvement and commitment of employees play a key role in improving quality performance. While the quality control team can set up the processes and systems for quality management, there are several other casual and/or infrequent users who play a key role in executing quality initiatives.
These infrequent users are not familiar with quality processes or the QMS software but are still regularly required to complete certain actions within the QMS such as training, approvals, sign-offs, reports generation, access documents, and more. Often, even with a quality management system automating the quality processes, employees may find it difficult to participate proactively.
The typical reasons for employees not using QMS effectively include:
- Complicated Navigation: Being unfamiliar with the quality system technology due to using it infrequently. Therefore, they may find it difficult to navigate their organization’s QMS to find information or perform actions using built-in workflows. Performing routine tasks may involve multiple steps and opening several tabs to complete an assigned task.
- Time Consuming: Light users may be a little overwhelmed when they come into the EQMS platform. They may find even approving and accessing documents difficult on their mobile. Completing a task can be time-consuming for inexperienced users who already are short on time.
- Low User Adoption: Users might feel overwhelmed as they struggle to understand where to go and how to perform a task. This may lead to lower user adoption of the QMS, simply because the platform wasn’t intuitive enough.
