STADCO Approach to Quality
 

Quality is our highest priority, at every level of the company. We've earned tremendous customer trust, loyalty and admiration because of this. And our lists of Approvals and Customer Awards verify our zealous pursuit of quality at every turn.

STADCO is registered to ISO 9001:2000 + AS9100A from Q.M.I. We are committed to sustaining uncompromising performance in design, manufacture and delivery of products with the highest level of quality. Our ISO 9001:2000 + AS9100A certification is your assurance that we will do what we say, and maintain exceptional quality standards. We are also qualified to MIL-Q-9858A and MIL-I-45208A.

STADCO dedicates its energies to achieving excellence in quality and increased productivity through the utilization of a continuous process improvement plan. The ultimate achievement is the satisfaction of our customers.

At STADCO, quality is not managed from the top down. We have established this TQM philosophy as a company-wide program, involving all employees. Individual employees are empowered to act as the guardians of our quality assurance at every level in the design, engineering and manufacturing processes. Our Engineering and Quality Assurance departments are fully integrated, including program managers, project engineers, numerical control programmers, quality engineers, document control and quality control personnel.

Every job is monitored from start to finish by data collection stations throughout the facility. As needed, STADCO uses Statistical Process Control (SPC) methods to monitor machine capabilities and processes.

In addition to our team of quality engineers, we operate with inspectors and other quality professionals. STADCO's own Certified Operator Program fully trains production personnel to inspect their own work.

The department is backed by a multi-million-dollar inventory of inspection equipment, much of it calibrated in our temperature-controlled facilities. This inventory includes a coordinate measuring machine, laser tracker photogrametry system, and Theodolite, among many other quality measuring tools and equipment.

These standards and systems are implemented under the immediate direction of the company president, our management team and supporting staff. From our outstanding calibration system to our careful contract review procedure, STADCO exemplifies the meaning of total quality management.

Whether it's manufacturing components for our customers or for our own use, we believe that quality and accuracy are the standards.
