in THE MAIN WALL
We're in the process of presenting our company to larger commercial general contractors as a potential sub contractor in the field of hydronics.

One of them sent me a Sub Contractors Pre Qualification form. On this form it asks for our "Quality Policy". Anyone out there got a clue as to what it is that they're looking for?

The more you learn, the more you need to know.

TIA!

    Q.C.Policy

    They are probably looking for something along the lines of ISO 9000 (or what ever the number in fashion today is) lots of gobbley goop with little substance. Or as one Plant Mgr. told me when they were going thru the process of getting certified ,It does nothing to guarantee quality or a good product just puts the process on paper so we can consistently screw up in exactly the same way. Personal Quality statement is "We provide the best possible product that you are willing to pay for."

    Hi Mark,

    Don't know what they are looking for, but if I was confronted with your predicament, I would send them something like: Quality and performance are guaranteed, if we are given the amount of time to perform this contract as specified.

    Time is always a factor, it seems. Telling people up-front that quality takes time is always foremost in my mind, lately. My own personal ****-thing, I think. [g] Good luck!

    Hard to know what they need...maybe ask a former contractor?

    Best,

    Quality!

    A fellow went to a farmer to buy some oats. The farmer told the fellow that there was two prices for oats. If he wanted good clean oats, rolled and fit for anything that would consume them, they cane at a premimun price, However if he wanted oats that have already been thru the horse they were still costly but at a much lower price! Quality costs money! period!
