Quality Quarantine Product Release Decision Software
Hold tags are cheap. Deciding what happens to the lot behind one, release, rework, or scrap, is the part that stalls. Kissflow routes every quarantine decision through structured review and authorization, with the disposition on record against the lot.
Trusted by energy operators worldwide
One authorization path for every quarantine release decision
Hold tags are cheap to print and expensive to leave unresolved.
A lot goes into quarantine when it fails a check, and from there it often just sits, sometimes for days, because the disposition decision needs sign-off from someone who is not always easy to reach, and nobody owns chasing them down. Meanwhile the lot ties up warehouse space it wasn't supposed to occupy for long, and if it's on the production schedule, it holds up downstream work that depends on it shipping or moving forward. A quarantine that should take an afternoon stretches into a week because the authorizer was traveling, the request sat in an inbox, and nobody escalated it until production asked why the line was waiting.
Kissflow captures the quarantine reason and lot details the moment a hold is placed, routes the release decision to the authorizer whose sign-off level matches the reason, and keeps the disposition, release, rework, scrap, or return, on record against the lot, so nothing sits unresolved by default.
A lot in quarantine with no decision owner just sits there
Quarantine has no decision deadline
A lot goes on hold and stays there until someone happens to notice and chase a decision.
Authorization level is unclear
Who can actually approve release, rework, or scrap for a given quarantine reason is not consistently defined.
No record of the disposition rationale
When a released lot later causes an issue, there is no clear record of why it was released and by whom.
Warehouse and production have no visibility
Warehouse staff holding the physical lot and production waiting on it have no way to see where the decision stands.
Six modules. Configurable to your disposition policy.
Every module ships with default forms, approval logic, integrations, and dashboards. Configure each one to your operating model in the visual builder.
Quarantine intake
Captures the lot number, the quarantine reason, and the quantity affected the moment a hold is placed.
Multi-stage disposition approval
Routes the release decision to the authorizer whose sign-off level matches the quarantine reason, with escalation.
Disposition options
Presents release, rework, scrap, or return-to-vendor as a structured decision, not an open-ended judgment call.
Audit trail
Keeps the quarantine reason, the disposition decision, and who authorized it on record against the lot.
Live status tracking
Shows warehouse and production exactly where a quarantined lot's release decision sits at any moment.
Requester self-service portal
Lets quality and warehouse staff submit and track quarantine holds without chasing an authorizer by phone.
From request to system of record in four steps
Submit
A lot that fails a check is placed on hold with the reason and quantity logged, opening the release decision.
Review
The release decision routes to the authorizer whose sign-off level matches the quarantine reason.
Approve
Release, rework, scrap, or return is authorized, with escalation if the decision stalls.
Record
The disposition is executed, and the decision, with its rationale, is logged to the audit trail against the lot.

Built for how plants actually make quarantine release decisions
An approval layer, not a new quality system
Your existing quality standards and hold criteria stay as they are. Kissflow runs the governed release decision workflow around them.
Live in weeks, not a re-implementation
Configure quarantine reasons, disposition options, and approval routing in the visual builder.
Governance built into the workflow
Delegation, escalation, and a full audit log are how every disposition moves, not a control added on afterward.
Structured disposition, not open judgment
Release, rework, scrap, and return are defined options with their own approval level, not a case-by-case call.
Self-service for quality and warehouse
Staff submit and track quarantine holds themselves instead of chasing an authorizer to make a call.
Made for cross-team work
Quality, warehouse, and production see the same quarantine record with their own view of it.

Get SupportNon-conformance reporting captures and escalates the issue that caused the hold. This app manages what happens next: the structured release, rework, scrap, or return decision for the specific lot.
No. Your quality standards and hold criteria stay as they are. Kissflow runs the disposition decision and approval workflow around them.
Configurable, typically release, rework, scrap, and return-to-vendor, each with its own required sign-off level.
Routing is configurable by quarantine reason and lot value, typically a quality lead for standard cases and a quality director for higher-risk ones.
Yes. Process owners configure quarantine reasons, disposition options, and approval routing in the visual builder, and the AI Builder can generate a working app from a plain-language description.
Through APIs and integration connectors, under single sign-on and role-based access, with every action written to an audit log.
Configuration and AI generation move delivery from weeks to days, without a multi-year platform program or an engineering backlog.
