Enhance Cross-Functional Collaboration Build strong partnerships with Production, Manufacturing Engineering, Service, and Procurement teams (Strategic AND Operational).

Tools include PFMEA, SPC, MSA, Cpk analysis, Control Plans. More may be added as the QATS program is maturing. Improve QII efficiency by reducing the need for Varian inspections and shifting supplier incoming materials from inspection to data review. Identify targeted suppliers with high-risk or failing parts, or low-risk parts suitable for data review, and conduct necessary reviews, alignments, risk managements, MSA studies, and validations to implement quality at the source. Collaborate closely with suppliers to ensure their processes meet design specifications and quality standards through effective internal process controls. Drive initiatives to lower overall quality costs. Analyze warranty and non-conformance expenses, identify root causes, and implement targeted action plans to address and resolve issues.
