​​QA/QC Training

Faster, Cheaper, Better:     Mind-set of relentless commitment to innovation for the best solutions, best performance and best cost.

vs.
Faster, Cheaper,
Brand-It:  Potential mind-set to carve-out quality, features, reliability and performance for cost savings as follows;

  • Mask country of origin perception with a legacy domestic US Brand Name  license (i.e. overseas factory purchase legacy domestic US brand name license ).
  • Maneuver product integrity with positive compliance test reports as needed (i.e. "Golden Samples" submitted to 3rd Party Testing Labs).
  • Manage liabilities within overseas enforcement jurisdictions by hiring former regulators as needed. (i.e. Global Big Box Store Smooth Out Non-compliance).

Best Practices

Rent-seeking third parties, agencies, NPO's without   "Skin in the Game"

.













< On-site factory QA/QC  technical staff with  "Skin in the Game".

  • Consumer Products Fully Compliant to International Safety Regulations (i.e. CPSIA, etc).


  • Factory and Labor Conditions Compliant to International Ethic and Safety Standards.


  • Product Cost to Compete with Big Box Store and Online Retailer Price Wars.


  • On-time Order Processing Delivery Without Compliance Short Cuts or Penalties.


  • Meets or Exceeds Marketing Claims and Consumer and Industry Expectations.


  • QA/QC Protocols with "Boots-On-The-Ground" Verification.


  • Corrective Action Plans (CAP) with detailed Timelines.


  • Positive Robust (FCPA) Due Diligence.

Thomas Doyle  MSc.


Root cause of many preventable major product safety incidents involve cycle-time reduction challenges :

  • Multiple sources to add capacity for order processing requirements without due diligence factory and product compliance assessment.
  • Accepting orders with unknown and/or limitless execution risks (i.e. limited production capacity that leads to compromised vendor selection).
  • Short cutting regulatory compliance and standard operating procedures.


Time to Market  has become a competitive advantage in the global digital age.  Suppliers who deliver fastest get orders.  

  •  "Market Clock": is the time the marketplace (i.e. consumers etc.) demands availability of products and services in the market. 
  •  "Internal Clock": is the time the supplier takes to execute the order requirements of products and services to the market.


Beating the "Market Clock" with a faster "Internal Clock"  is a global competitive advantage to win orders. 

QA/QC protocols and training can speed-up "Internal Clocks" by reducing cycles time without short cuts to critical product safety compliance protocols.
