Earlier visibility on
supplier quality risks
We help you follow the quality of your suppliers more closely: visits and checks at their premises, support during launches and follow-up of corrective actions — so that issues are detected before they reach your line.

The challenge
Detect supplier issues
before they reach you
Supplier problems discovered at your receiving area or on your line disrupt production. When suppliers are far away, following their corrective actions and launch readiness remotely is difficult.
What we provide: supplier quality support at your suppliers’ premises and remotely, working to your requirements, to follow quality performance, support launches and monitor corrective actions.
- Supplier quality follow-up according to your requirements
- Launch and readiness support for new parts or processes

Frequently asked questions
Do you work at our suppliers’ premises?
Where your suppliers agree and access is organised, support can take place at their premises. Some follow-up activities can also be carried out remotely.
Whose requirements do you apply?
Yours, and the customer requirements that you pass on to your suppliers. We do not replace your supplier quality policy: we help you apply it.
Can you support a new part launch at a supplier?
Yes. We can help review readiness — documentation, controls, first parts — against your requirements, working with your teams and the supplier.
What happens if a supplier does not improve?
We report the situation factually and support escalation according to your rules. Decisions about the supplier remain yours.
Which locations can you cover?
Tell us where your suppliers are located and the scope you need. Qualivision will assess the intervention based on the locations, the access requirements and the resources needed.
