Tesco: Enhancing Supply Chain Auditing with Librestream’s Onsight
Situation
Tesco sought to enhance the consistency and efficiency of its supply chain audits across its vast global network. The onset of the COVID-19 pandemic intensified this need, as travel restrictions impeded in-person audits, necessitating a remote solution to maintain operational continuity.
Solution
Tesco implemented Librestream’s Onsight augmented reality platform, enabling auditors to conduct immersive, real-time virtual audits using smartphones, computers, or wearable devices. This allowed remote assessment of facilities with on-site staff support and tools like video markup and camera control for thorough inspections.
Results
- Maintained full audit operations during the pandemic
- Enabled a single auditor to conduct site visits across three countries in one day (vs. two weeks of travel)
- Reduced travel and carbon footprint
- Increased audit consistency and team collaboration globally
- Enhanced efficiency of audit resources
“Librestream’s solution proved invaluable to Tesco’s ability to ensure food safety for our customers during COVID-19 and maintain a fully-deployed audit team.”

Head of Standards and Audit, Tesco
