S.S. White not only fanatically adheres to the highest quality standards but routinely exceeds them. Our President takes special interest in the running of the quality lab since he himself started as an Inspector at S.S. White. Our Quality Department is staffed with several supervising quality engineers and many experienced inspectors who are trained to accept nothing less than perfect parts. Our Director of Quality runs it with a competitive zeal and a mind always toward the metrics. Why wouldn't he? 

S.S. White's mature quality system has reached many milestones over the years. In 1997, we first achieved ISO9001 which is currently certified to the 2015 revision. We hold certification through Perry Johnson Registrars for AS9100 Revision D. 

We do all this with a company-wide quality system that combines the requirements of all these standards. Nearly all of our quality documentation is computerized through our document management system (DMS). Our system is also email driven; if a change is made, a non-conformance found, or if any gauge falls out of calibration-interested parties know immediately. 

Further, our system works because of training. We spend countless hours training and re-training our employees not only to understand our quality system, but to be unmatched in their knowledge of our products. For example, engineers spend weeks on the shop floor learning how to make our products before they will spend a minute engineering. 

Our suppliers play a huge role in our quality efforts. We strive for flawless communication of requirements through accurate prints, purchase orders, timely feedback through non-conformance reports and scorecards, as well as our Supplier Quality Requirements Manual. 

We also pride ourselves on our communication. At our monthly 'Town Hall' meeting with the entire company there's always a review of the Safety, Quality, Delivery and Cost metrics for the month and a highlight of one of our top customers with a demonstration of their finished product. With customers, we offer an S.S. White newsletter, a thorough and informative website and the services of a company full of employees who know how to get you the answers you need.
