Taking Quality Outside your Four Walls: An Integrated Approach to Supplier Quality Management

In today's dynamic business environment, suppliers play an important role in bringing products to market. As a growing global market increases demand and specialization of products, more and more organizations rely on strategic supplier partnerships to help ease the costs of meeting such demands.

As a result of these partnerships, the supply-chain often becomes very long and extensive, with suppliers manufacturing components in various countries and regions, each specialized to fit a particular niche required by the end user. In an effort to meet these demands, supplier quality is often overlooked or not maintained.

This paper will outline several key concepts into how companies can extend their enterprise quality management system (QMS) to their suppliers, and effectively take quality outside their four walls.
