C.
Quality Control (QC) and Quality Assurance (QA) systems
We believe the most efficacious
way of production is to manufacture the products correctly
upfront. We have several campaigns to implement this
ideology among our floor workers.
Our second check point is the
Manufacture Quality Control Team. This team monitors
each procedure to make sure that every step is in
strict accordance with ISO 9002 standards. On the
production line the ratio of workers to QC members
is 10: 1.
After all the manufacturing
procedures are completed, the products are ready
for packaging. Packaging is the responsibility of
the Packaging Quality Control Team. It checks every
single product and filter out any item that is below
the required standards. We refuse to package any
item that is inferior; only the approved products
are packaged.
That is not all. The
final check is the Quality Assurance Team. This
team audits the packaged products in our warehouse
to guarantee that everything is in the finest condition.
Without their approval, no product is shipped; this
is our strict policy.
D. Managing our Supply
Chain
In the passage of time, we
have established good and long-standing relationship
with many of our suppliers. Through collaborative
business planning and forecasting, we are able to
increase our collective flexibility and responsiveness
to changes and unforeseeable events.
We source from suppliers
in different places, such as China, Taiwan, Hong
Kong and Korea. This mode of sourcing provides us
with ready access to and choice of a wide range
of accessories: YKK zippers, Cordura fabrics, Nifco
buckles and National Moulding (Duraflex) buckles
etc.
