Planet Assembly - Proof in the Process: How One SPD Cut Tray Errors with Audits
About this episode
Every SPD tech knows the feeling: the tray wasn't right, and now everything's running behind. But what if one small check could stop the chaos before it begins? On this episode of Beyond Clean's Planet Assembly, we're joined by Dr. Timothy Hurtado and Tori Ruiz, the dynamic duo behind the first-place HSPA poster presentation that tackled tray defects head-on with the power of a second look. From high-risk trays to surprising data trends, Timothy and Tori share how one small idea—and a few simple audits—sparked a culture shift and grew into a scalable, successful QA program across multiple sites. Their story is proof that quality improvement doesn't have to be complicated to make a big impact—and if you're looking for a practical, proven way to reduce errors and rally your team around quality, this is one episode you don't want to miss.
