This is more than a customer requirement. There are many benefits to a robust QMS. A QMS is a coordinated set of values and processes implemented by an organization to ensure that it meets the standards demanded by its customers and key stakeholders.
This is a product verification by quality of a development part to ensure customer requirements are met.
When building a standard, it is good to have subject matter experts. This gives the employee a clear understanding of a process or procedure. These “standards” are called Standards Work Instructions or Standard Operating Procedures. SWIs make training operators and new hires consistent. When everyone in a company does a job the same way you reduce costly errors and waste. Part of the QMS is to set goals to achieve quality products and operational excellence. This engages the employees with responsibility and changes the culture. Something as simple as a process and product verification can have profound impacts on product improvement. It’s always important to check your own work but having someone or something to verify your work can be very beneficial.
Using a check fixture for repeat parts can be an effective and quick way to verify customer requirements.
Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) Systems are a tool for data collection. Through the ERP system Dark Threat Fab is able to plan workload, assign tasks, and provide real-time awareness on projects. Operators are giving inspection requirements for every job. This data is used to streamline business processes, which improve efficiency and help access risk. Improvement is at the heart of every QMS. Continuous improvement is a four-stop quality assurance method - the plan-do-check-act (PDCA) cycle. Plan - we identify an opportunity and plan for change. Do - implement the change on a small scale. Check - use data to analyze the results of the change and determine whether it made a difference. Act - if the change was successful, implement it on a wider scale and continuously assess your results.
