If I don't experience quality issues with my supplier, do I still need supplier quality management services?
It's not a bad idea to have third party supplier quality management even if you don’t have quality problems with your supplier. In our very volatile world, anything can happen and your supplier situation can change very quickly. They may experience production problems that will affect your next shipment, they may make an error because the suppliers staff, especially production line workers, change all the time. By having a third party supplier quality management company, you at least have boots on the ground who can check on the supplier and keep an eye on what's going on, and just see if everything is on track for you.

They don’t have to be there all the time. Supplier quality management companies have flexible price options and will be able to tailor something according to your work requirements and budget.

A third party quality control company or quality assurance provider will help you with effectively meeting your product quality, supplier performance, and quality assurance system objectives. You can achieve greater customer satisfaction with the quality of your products and minimize the risk of customer complaints or product recalls. Some clients also use third party quality control companies so that they can demonstrate compliance with regulatory or customer quality requirements. Quality control companies are your tools for solving and containing quality problems at the supplier source before it escalates through your supply chain and becomes more complex and costly to remedy.
