Quality
Cirtek Electronics Corporation’s thrusts on Quality:
The Quality Assurance (QA) group of CEC works to have more value-add to the company by providing support that would help in the prevention of defects and mistakes as opposed to merely performing inspection after each process. QA plays a major role in approving processes by requiring rigid qualification that would pass the equivalent international standards on in-process and final reliability testing. Likewise, it independently provides decisions on the basis of data and results of reliability testing, if necessary.
QA also has strict standards on set-up qualification to insure that products conform to requirement when run in production. Problems, customer complaints and internal issues are also resolved following the 8D approach and poka-yoke (mistake-proof) way of finding preventive solutions.
