I take a hands on approach to all phases of Designing Quality or Mfg. systems, and problem analysis. I believe that:

• Problems are not solved by sitting in a meeting room talking about what happened.

• That the 3 A's (Actual parts, Actual place, And Actual situation) are the best way to begin an investigation. 

• That the people that run the processes(s) are the process experts and that their input is invaluable in a problem investigation. 

• That if your Quality and Manufacturing systems are designed properly, that no non-conforming parts should be shipped from your facilities.

• Should you choose to use my services, be prepared to spend a significant amount of time in the Manufacturing areas. You need to understand what the total actual situation is before the true root cause(s) and countermeasures can be applied.
