Q: What are some of the projects completed by SIS, Inc.’s Quality Engineering staff?
A: A few examples to highlight our abilities:
Example 1: Provided multiple teams of 4 to 7 Quality Engineers at multiple plant locations for a 3 - 9 month Client project in which the project consisted of the following:
- 100% review and modification of QMS documentations, consisting of PFMEA, Control Plans, Work Instructions, Safety Instructions and Quality Check documents.
- Support PPAP activities for documentation development, review and submission.
- Review and make recommendations of Receiving Inspection procedures per control plan.
Example 2: Provided one (1) on-site Quality Engineer to assist Client in filling out PPAP documents and modifying PFMEA, Control Plans and Work Instructions per PPAP requirements on multiple occasions.
Example 3: Provided two (2) on-site Quality Engineers; one Quality Engineer provided documentation support for a new product launch while the second Quality Engineer provided problem solving support at several work stations. The Quality Engineer evaluated the work stations and made recommendations for Corrective Actions that saved the company over $50,000 in scrap during the 6 week assignment.
Example 3: One (1) Quality Engineer assigned to a Client to develop and implement "Quality Wall Concept" in all work cells, and develop and implement Receiving Inspection Procedures.
Example 4: One (1) Quality Engineer spent several weeks problem solving a machining issue at a Client’s Tier Two supplier facility that lead to improving product quality and through put.
Example 5: One (1) Quality Engineer assigned to Client project to monitor production processes for compliance to Control Plans and Work Instructions. Audit and review all files at the component level that were required in the assembly process, including part drawings revision levels and PPAP verification requirements.
Example 6: One (1) Quality Engineer assigned to Client for a 3 month project to monitor the production process and assist in implementing the Quality Engineer’s recommendations. Review and made Work Instructions improvements, including facilitating PFMEA process improvements.
Q: Why should I use SIS, Inc.’s Quality Engineering Support services?
A: Lack of internal manpower resources: Every organization has quality related issues they would like to have resolved, but never seem to have enough time or resources to complete. Outsourcing these services can assist when manpower constraints, emergencies, multiple priorities, and the pressure of deadlines have your resources stretched to the breaking point.
Reduced Costs: Project-related Quality Engineers reduce the costs related to hiring, training and re-assignment. Once the project is complete, you no longer are burdened by the overhead costs associated with these resources.
Focus: Our Quality Engineers are focused on the task-at-hand and not distracted by other responsibilities within the organization. This allows your own personnel to focus on their responsibilities, reduces the project completion time and reduces overall costs.
