Engineering Management
Technical consultancy
Independent engineering advice on materials, processes, inspection strategy and supplier quality, from engineers who work on Turkish shop floors every week.
01What the service involves
QUALITAS TR provides technical consultancy to buyers, engineering companies and manufacturers. Typical topics include material selection and substitution, manufacturing route selection (casting versus forging versus machining from solid), welding and heat treatment questions, inspection and test strategy, quality plan and ITP structure, supplier quality management and sourcing strategy for Turkey.
Consultancy can be a single question answered in writing, a technical review of a disputed issue, or support during a sourcing or industrialisation project.
02Why buyers need it
Many sourcing and quality decisions have a technical core that buyers cannot resolve remotely: is this material substitution acceptable, is this failure a design or a manufacturing problem, which inspection strategy fits this supplier?
An independent technical opinion, based on knowledge of the local industry, helps decide quickly and correctly.
03Typical applications
- Material substitution and equivalence questions
- Manufacturing route and cost reduction studies
- Technical disputes with suppliers
- Inspection strategy for new categories
- Sourcing strategy and supplier landscape in Turkey
- Quality requirement definition for purchase specifications
