Departmental Workflow
Checks & Cross Checks
- Work is completed in accordance with work instructions in each department 1 to 9. Prior to leaving each zone the operator will check compliance of all items produced against the works order and authorise progression of approved items to the next department using QC form 01. All forms are filed for future reference in accordance with our Quality Management System.
- All employees are encouraged to reject any item/s which do not meet the minimum quality standard. At this point the employee will raise a compete non-conformance form (REDO) and return the item to the source department where corrective action is taken and recorded on the MIS.
- The key account representative and production management monitor progression of all orders to ensure on time delivery. Where delays occur will notify the client of any potential delays or seek extension of the original delivery date and time.
- Receiving zones will not accept responsibility for any orders where form QC 01 is not correctly signed and engage line management to take corrective action.
