The process is a starting point.The standards are yours.

Configure for the actual site, process, workforce and materials. Applicable labour and factory rules, pollution consents, waste, chemical, electrical and fire requirements depend on the activity and jurisdiction. MSE cases require an eligibility and forum check.

Keep the work connected.

Product & Process Engineering

Release engineering revisions into live orders

Connect an approved drawing or BOM revision to open purchase orders, work in process and stock. Engineers decide use-up, rework or cancellation before the wrong revision reaches production or a customer.

PPQ

Product & Process Engineering

Qualify a material substitute for the actual application

Bring the substitute specification, trial results, customer requirements and available stock together. Engineering and quality decide interchangeability and any approval needed before purchasing changes the source.

QPS

Product & Process Engineering

Resolve drawing queries before fabrication continues

Collect the relevant revision, site/shop query, proposed deviation and customer specification. Engineering records its disposition and identifies jobs that must pause or change before machining or assembly proceeds.
