Potential Supplier Development
Risks and issues are often identified when onboarding a new supplier or working with an existing one on a New Product Development (NPD) process. Changes, corrective and preventive actions (CAPA), and training are often required to proactively minimize the potential failure or to re-qualify the production line.
This often requires intensive communications and QA follow-up between the buyer’s engineering team and the factory’s production team to ensure all risks are considered.

Supplier Risks & Challenges:

Suppliers made changes without notifying their clients
Suppliers lack the motivation or quality personnel to improve and implement system improvements
Suppliers claim to have implemented improvement actions but are not validated for effectiveness
Supplier actions only treat the symptoms of the problem rather than the root cause of the issues
Clients do not have enough resources to follow up and validate the implemented actions

Factory Continuous Improvement
On the one hand, many of the suppliers our clients work with are small to medium size factories without the world-class quality management system or practices in place. On the other hand, some of our clients with a more established factory are always looking to improve their performance so they can sell their products into a more stringent sector. Whether the continuous improvement is triggered through a complaint or a proactive initiative, it calls for objective input and unbiased monitoring to facilitate the transformation.

Supplier Risks & Challenges:

Suppliers lack the qualified quality personnel to drive changes or implement actions
There is a lack of internal audits and quality assessments at the factory
Factory assessments are biased
There is a lack of systematic continuous improvement at the factory
Lack of prioritization and objective monitoring of supplier’s improvement initiatives
