Dear Forum users,
We have a oversea supplier who supplies us critical tooling. In the recent years, it has been given us a lot a grief, e.g. supply not in time, incorrectly machined parts. But in general their performance is not so bad.
We have no intention to move to another supplier because the tooling is a critical factor to ensure the quality of our products.
Physical supplier audit is not feasible because the cost involved. Can you all please advise any ways I could drive the supplier to improve on its performance.
I am in the process of gathering the "incident/problem" together and revise our Supplier Questionnaire to suit a tooling company.
Can anyone please also advise the 'must ask' question to a tooling supplier?
Many thanks.
