Have your supplier audits performed
by an experienced,
certified audit professional
Registrar's auditors
are rarely thorough enough and often don't ask supplier management
the tough questions. A professional supplier auditor will ensure
that these questions are answered and provide a complete, honest
assessment of your supplier's quality management system's effectiveness
and suitability for your business.
A professional supplier auditor
will provide a fair and balanced audit report to both you and
your supplier resulting in a more productive customer-supplier
relationship.
ISO 9001, TS16949, ISO 14001, and OHSAS 18001 require
additional audit skills to properly evaluate a quality management
system's effectiveness that many existing internal and supplier
auditors don't possess. By utilizing an expert, the supplier
qualification program will be stronger.
Free yourself from having to
constantly train auditors who may lack the time and/or tenacity
to identify critical deficiencies. Save training resources, time
and cost.
Utilizing external resources is more cost effective in terms
of minimizing the impact on internal resources and travel budgets.
Audits are performed in a condensed
timeframe to minimize distractions yet maximize impact on improvement
efforts. Keep audits on a crisp, manageable schedule.
Free yourself from paperwork.
A comprehensive and professionally prepared audit report identifies
both nonconformances and opportunities for improvement, referencing
specific ISO 9001, TS16949, ISO 14001, and/or OHSAS 18001 requirements.
