Defense Quality and Reliability
One cannot watch or listen to any of today’s media coverage without being exposed to military and defense activity both domestically and internationally. In this arena, the term competitive advantage takes on a whole new meaning. Mission success and the safety of our servicemen and women are the top priorities when designing and deploying weapon and support systems. Our dedication to the reliability and safety of these systems has put Quality Associates International in a unique position to assist this crucial industry.
QAI has developed uniquely structured methodologies which include the Department of Defense approved Technical Kick Off (TKO) and Process Kickoff (PKO) which has:
- intensified and streamlined design, development and production activities
- focused effort and time spent on the ‘critical few’ items which pose significant risk, redistributing effort away from the ‘insignificant many’ that can overpower resources and diffuse quality and productivity
- reduced the man hours necessary to achieve better quality product, thereby optimizing budget
- assured that safety is integral in the design process
- Technical Risk assessment and mitigation process discipline.
- Traceability of Design Verification to original requirements.
