Quality Systems · IATF 16949:2016

Producing Quality. Delivering Confidence.

Quality is the most important product we manufacture.

Automotive OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers trust Big Rapids Products because our IATF 16949-certified quality systems are built to reduce risk, support successful launches, and ensure consistent performance throughout the life of every program.

Verification

Measured Against Requirements

Quality is built into the process.

Advanced inspection technology, statistical controls, and connected production information help verify critical dimensions and maintain confidence from PPAP through ongoing production.

Verify Critical Dimensions

Part-specific inspection fixtures, an optical comparator, Coordinate Measuring Machines, and 3D laser scanning verify part dimensions against CAD data and blueprint requirements.

Prove Process Capability

Statistical software within our Plex ERP system and CMM supports process-capability verification for PPAP and throughout the life of the program.

Maintain Production Control

Plant-floor computers integrate with part gages and handheld measuring devices, providing database control that helps maintain tolerances across production runs.

Program Confidence

Quality supports every stage of a production program—from validation and launch through repeatable, high-volume manufacturing.

Less risk.
Better launches.
Consistent results.

Our quality systems are built to give purchasing, engineering, supplier-quality, and program teams clearer evidence that processes are capable, dimensions are verified, and production remains under control.
