Supplier Management for Quality Assurance of exterior components of a sports car manufacturer

LÖCHGAU, Germany - April 25, 2016 - PRLog -- Gehrung & Partner was asked by a well-known South-German sports car manufacturer, to assist in the quality assurance of purchased parts of the exterior volume. One of the difficulties has been to control and balance the tasks of the various development and production sites in Germany and Slovakia.

Concrete task was to evaluate the supplied volumes regarding specified vehicle manufacturer criteria at the respective Q-Gates, analyze supplied incorrect parts, implementation of suitable corrective actions at the supplier, monitoring the schedule and quality-oriented implementation of the actions and the final release of updated volumes. These tasks have been ensured, partly at supplier's site, with the usual efficiency.
