Kinectrics' QA Program is designed to meet the
requirements of several quality standards; this provides the roadmap that
allows Kinectrics to execute work for a wide variety of customers and
applications. The program is designed around customer focus, project management
methodology, and a culture of continual improvement, which can be customized to
the needs of each project to ensure an appropriate level of quality management.
Supporting technical work is controlled through documented procedures. Quality
is maintained through regular review, independent verification, and frequent
internal audits. Customers, regulators, or other stakeholders may review Kinectrics'
QA Program at any time.
