HOW WE DO IT

Together with you we review your project, compose the best fitting team and design a complete inspection plan that best suits your project and your wishes.

The agreements made during this inventory phase will be implemented in our Quality Management System (QMS). This cloud-based software tool called Uruburu will allow you to manage your project quality wise including extensive management information like statistics, progress indicators, etc. from anywhere in the world.

The team of inspectors will be present at the production site at the agreed schedule to execute the agreed inspections and to report the results of these inspections. Of course all detected issues will be followed up by the team (re-inspection of re-work, advice, etc.) until a satisfying solution has been achieved. Thanks to our QMS all issues are registered and thus will not be forgotten or get lost. Also very thorough management information / statistics is available. Thanks to the knowledge of our teams and structured way of working IQP delivers the highest possible quality achievable.

URUBURu – Quality Management system

Uruburu is our high standard, inhouse developed inspection tool specifically made to execute, register, report and (project) manage the Product Quality Inspections (PQI) in complex production environments like Rolling stock manufacturing. This tool is developed in corporation with experienced Inspectors ‘on the job’. The tool started as a simple MS Excel worksheet with checklists and reporting possibilities (Access) and has evolved in the past (20+) years to a 2.0 fully operational cloud solution SaaS based (Software as a Service).

With the Uruburu application the PQI inspections of Rolling Stock manufacturing are better structured and well managed. Pre-defined checklists can be created for every stage of the fabrication process. So called Hold- or witness points. The inspector fills the results in Uruburu and automatically a report is made containing points (issues) that need to be followed up before getting to the next stage of the production process.

The module contains a very thorough reporting, tracking, tracing and follow-up system so nothing will be forgotten or get lost.

All inspectors and managers will have one clear overview of the status of the manufactured objects. With a one button push you will be able to see the status of your reports, your Open Item List, NOK points, the scores etc. to better manage your project.

Uruburu is cloud based “Software as a service” also known as “SaaS”. It is fully managed and geo redundant hosted and backed up. The only thing needed to work with the tool is a modern browser (like Chrome)
and an internet connection. There is no need to install any software on the clients’ servers or pcs. There will be absolutely no burden on the clients IT department.

Of course, mobile clients are available (Android & IOS).
