Supply Chain Audits

Bi-annual supplier visits are made by our team to audit facilities and address any ongoing issues.

We have a simple philosophy which has stood us in good stead - We do not trade with companies who have not been audited or personally visited by our team. 

Product Development and Supplier Selection

Our experience means we choose the right partner in our supply chain to deliver world class quality to you. ISIR, PSW or PPAP documentation are all available with sample submission to ensure prototypes are approved quickly to your satisfaction.

Incoming Quality Inspection - Dimensional, Visual, Electronic, Functional

Whilst setting up individual parts on our MRP system we can specify the incoming inspection levels and the type of test.

So we can either look for cosmetic defects, check dimensions or perform electronic or functional tests locally to verify the quality is acceptable.

Ongoing Quality Records, Corrective Actions, Improvements to Process Flow

If we have have any quality issues our first thought is always to maintain supply chain, identify root cause and implement corrective actions as soon as possible. This is pursued in a robust and efficient manner to ensure quality compliance is restored to product supply immediately.

We also interrogate the manufacturing process flow at this stage to see if any improvements can be made before presenting our findings in a formal corrective action report (CAR), 8D or FMEA for the automotive sector.

Approvals include:

ISO9001, TS16949, ISO13485 and ISO14001
