Implementation of ISO 9001
ISO 9001 is a well-known quality management system. Our experienced engineers can help you with both the introduction and improvement of quality management in your company through ISO training and coaching.
Verification with Quality System Basics
To find out whether you meet the requirements of quality management systems such as ISO 9001, you can use the Quality System Basics (QSB). This is a list of basic elements that are necessary to achieve a final product that meets all customer requirements. We are certified by GM-PSA to perform QSB assessments and provide training & coaching to their suppliers. As an experienced expert, we can provide training like no other with all elements of the Quality System Basics system.
PROJECT ENGINEERING
G&P Quality Management offers assistance with various forms of Project Engineering. Every project requires a structured approach, this is where the shoe sometimes dares to pinch. In the automotive sector, experts talk about APQP (Advanced Product Quality Planning). Its main lines and milestones can, in principle, be used in any sector.
A variety of projects
We can provide assistance for various forms of Project Engineering:
- New installations or relocation of machines and installations
- Specific projects for quality improvement and production optimization, such as: workshop organization (5S), problem solving and prevention, targeted audit programs, standardized working and process control via SPC.
RESIDENT ENGINEERING
A Resident Engineer represents our client and is treated as an employee of the company he/she is responsible for. In this way, he/she can quickly solve a problem on location and eliminate or minimize the risk of damage to the brand.
Responsibilities of a Resident Engineer
- Quick response to a problem, verification and analysis of a defect, immediate contact with a supplier to provide details (photos, shipping parts for analysis, etc.)
- Appropriate responses, regular visits to relevant facilities, participation in meetings
- Maintain good relationships with the plant engineers in question.
- Ensure follow-up and communication with product or process changes and improvement proposals
- Ensure follow-up and communication when introducing new products
A company that currently works a lot with Resident Engineers is Volvo in the port of Ghent. We could already observe positive effects here.
PROCESS ENGINEERING
In addition to Quality Engineering and Project Engineering, you can also contact us for Process Engineering. At Process Engineering we focus on optimizing your production process. The difference with Project Engineering is that it deals with specific projects (e.g. a machine relocation or a workshop organization), whereas this looks at the overall process.
Striving for perfection
With Process Engineering we mainly focus on improving the production process in the areas of:
- Effectiveness: working correctly and avoiding mistakes
- Efficiency: avoiding waste
If you want maximum profit and minimum waste in your business, it is essential that every employee performs his or her activities in the best way possible. Because it is often difficult to expose your own weaknesses, so we do that for you. G&P Quality Management takes a close look at your processes and helps you optimize your production process. This requires a personal, tailor-made approach every time.
QUALITY ANALYSIS
Does your company have a product line that sometimes stops working, issues with the quality of suppliers or staff that could work more efficiently?
Our expert will be happy to visit you for an initial analysis of the business processes. Concrete proposals are made for improvement. Also for coaching and/or training of your staff you can book a admittance meeting. During such a conversation, we listen and take a first look at where the improvement points are within your company.
