Defective Product and Supply Chain Issues
It is a firm policy of Crawford’s that non-conformities be documented and evaluated. The benchmark analysis and non-conformance reports are an invaluable tool in tracking performance and trends that give indication where and when a corrective action is required.
There are five possibilities for disposition of nonconforming product reported on a Customer Non-conformance Report:
Return to stock
Return to vendor
Scrap
Repaired or Reworked (by simple process)
Pre-approved return by vendor
The purpose of this procedure is to provide for a system, instructions and to assign responsibility for:
Identifying, documenting and evaluating a nonconforming product.
Disposition for a nonconforming product.
Re-verification after correction.
Dedication to Continuous Improvement
Crawford will plan and manage the Quality Management System for continual improvement. The Quality Team will analyze data on the following items to determine the suitability of the Quality Management System and to identify improvements that can be made.
Customer satisfaction and/or dissatisfaction by corrective action reports and customer satisfaction surveys.
Conformance to customer requirements by non-conformance reports.
Characteristics of process, product and trends by internal audits
