Control plans define how risks are managed, whether through 100% in-line inspection or by applying the AQL process. This approach ensures that product quality is consistently monitored and maintained.
Our goal is straightforward: to build quality into every stage of our process ensuring customers can rely on consistent performance and dependable delivery, every time.
Using Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA), we complete DFMEA and PFMEA to identify risks that could affect the customer. Each potential issue is scored with a Risk Priority Number (RPN) of up to 1000, based on severity, occurrence and detection.
During this process, we highlight the prevention and detection controls already in place. Actions are then prioritised from the highest to the lowest RPN, ensuring risks are reduced as far as practicably possible.

We operate a structured supplier approval process to identify and select the most suitable partners for each project. This ensures customers benefit from reliable, high-quality components that meet specification and support long-term product performance.
Once suppliers are approved, the Production Part Approval Process (PPAP) begins. We work collaboratively with suppliers to minimise variation and confirm that all materials meet specification through visual and dimensional inspection. This ensures components are fully qualified before entering production.
Our validation process follows Installation Qualification (IQ), Operational Qualification (OQ) and Performance Qualification (PQ). By applying Statistical Process Control (SPC), we ensure manufacturing remains stable and repeatable, giving customers confidence that every pack will perform as expected with minimal variation.
When issues arise, we use a structured approach incorporating the A3 problem-solving format, Ishikawa diagrams (using 6Ms: Man, Method, Material, Machine, Measure, Mother Nature), and the 5 Whys technique. This ensures root causes are identified and corrective actions are taken to prevent recurrence, protecting product reliability.
Any material not meeting specification is placed in quarantine for review. It is investigated to identify the root cause, and corrective actions are implemented using CAPA, FMEA and validation processes. This ensures non-conforming materials never reach production and lessons are applied to prevent reoccurrence.
