TECHNICAL AUDIT
TECHNICAL AUDIT
Audits
A technical audit can assure you, before you commit with a P.O., that your potential vendor is able to perform the service as advertised. Aspects such as technical knowledge, expertise, and capability are reviewed, along with experience, human resources, equipment, and tooling. It is of great importance to avoid surprises during the manufacturing, repair, and/or coating process that might impact delivery time or other requirements. Vendor Verification has proven to be an indispensable service to customers seeking to reduce the cost of replacements, repair and/or coating of turbine components.

QUALITY AUDIT
QUALITY AUDIT
A quality audit could be limited to the quality system itself or combined with a technical audit. A formal audit to define your supplier’s quality system, along with an opinion, will be given outlining the strong and weak points which may impact a potential order. General audit outline is:
- Review company Q&A manual, procedures, work instructions and specifications.
- Experience and qualification of inspectors, welders, etc.
- Reference list of specific components of interest to the IGT end-user.

TEServices performs technical/quality audits for one or multiple customers.
TEServices has noticed in the past that multiple end-users/customers can suddenly have interest in a specific repair vendor due to change of the market by takeovers or major shifts in the repair vendor landscape. To obtain a fast and complete background of this vendor, TEServices can perform a multi-day technical and quality audit. The cost for performing and reporting the audit to multiple end users can be very reasonable.
Please contact TEServices if you might be interested in a technical/quality audit.
