By Tamea Franco In News No comments

Quality is at the core of every one of our metal finishing processes. It’s what makes us stand out as a vendor and why many of our customers trust us with their parts again and again.

Global Metal Finishing has earned and maintained several certifications and documents that demonstrate our commitment to delivering superior quality. They aren’t simply a means to an end in meeting industry requirements; our certifications and accreditations represent the exceptional results that our customers expect from our expert team.

Let’s explore how our certifications validate our first-rate metal finishing services and how this documentation benefits our customers.

Our Certifications

The GMF team is committed to delivering aesthetically pleasing, highly functional components each time. Every element, from intricate racking and masking supplies to material choice, is crucial in achieving outstanding results. 

While our certifications may serve specific processes or industries, such as AS9100 for aerospace, their impact crosses into other sectors. It’s about ensuring that every component and every process is held to the highest standards so we can deliver quality and reliability in all of our metal finishing services. 

AS9100

Our AS9100 certification represents our commitment to quality management in aerospace metal finishing.

This certification, tailored specifically for the aerospace industry, elevates our standards to unprecedented levels of precision. It’s not just about the surface-level processes; it’s about our meticulous attention to detail in every aspect of our operations. Our team is dotting every “I” and crossing every “T” to ensure our procedures and protocols meet the high standards of the challenging aerospace sector.

This certification is a testament to our dedication to providing aerospace customers with the highest quality and reliability in our metal finishing services. The rigorous procedures we’ve adopted from our AS9100 certification benefit all our customers, even those not directly involved in aerospace manufacturing.

ISO 9001:2015

While not industry-specific like AS9100, ISO 9001:2015 emphasizes stringent processes and procedures to ensure consistent quality and customer satisfaction. It’s a versatile certification that permeates every aspect of our operations to provide top-notch quality management practices from initial customer engagement to final product delivery.

With ISO 9001:2015, Global Metal Finishing prioritizes efficiency, continual improvement, and exceptional customer service. Ultimately, this certification reinforces our commitment to excellence in metal finishing for clients across all industries.

NADCAP

Global Metal Finishing is NADCAP accredited in chemical processing, setting us apart as a metal finisher committed to precision and quality.

NADCAP delves deep into our chemical processes and tanks, emphasizing meticulous control over our chemistry and processing methods. While we adhere rigorously to blueprints and purchase orders, NADCAP requires an exhaustive level of detail, particularly regarding processing procedures. Every aspect is meticulously monitored and documented, from recording time per tank to stringent chemistry regulations to ensure compliance with the highest industry standards.

How Our Certifications and Accreditations Impact Customers

The Global Metal Finishing team obtained our certifications and NADCAP accreditation for one primary reason: to improve customer outcomes. Here’s how this documentation allows us to surpass expectations:

Ensure Second-to-None Quality

Here at GMF, quality is everything, and our customers count on us for it. Our AS9100 and ISO 9001:2015 certifications and NADCAP accreditation demonstrate the high caliber of quality woven into every aspect of our operations.

Working with Global Metal Finishing means choosing a team committed to looking at the big picture and the intricate details of a job. Our certifications and accreditation provide a lens through which we scrutinize every process, ensuring that each step is executed flawlessly the first time.

Our dedication to quality is further evidenced by our first-pass yield quality metric, which measures the percentage of components that meet all quality specifications without rework or correction during initial production. By tracking this benchmark, our team can identify areas for improvement and enhance process efficiency to yield greater quality parts and more satisfied customers.

Improve Productivity and Timeliness

Our adherence to set quality standards means that we hold ourselves accountable for delivering on time, every time. Our team prioritizes productivity without compromising quality by meticulously reviewing and reporting metrics, including on-time delivery.

Demonstrate Industry-Specific Compliance

Our NADCAP accreditation and AS9100 certification make us a trusted partner for compliance-heavy industries. They are especially invaluable when precision and adherence to standards are non-negotiable. Whether a small component or a large-scale project, every job receives the same meticulous attention to detail, ensuring compliance and quality consistency across the board.

At Global Metal Finishing, our certifications and accreditations aren’t just regulatory documents. They are promises of quality, productivity, compliance, and customer satisfaction.
