This allows organizations to increase competitiveness and profitability. Two of Turkey8217;s most prominent associations of automotive parts manufacturers recognize the growing concern of their members for effective quality management and cost control. IW is a credible solution for this concern.\r\n\r\nIW-Turkey has offices and a modern operational facilities in Istanbul, Gebze and Bursa in Turkey. IW can work for you entirely offsite and assist with handling logistics or, if required, IW can deploy trained operators to designated locations for onsite containment and disposition of nonconforming products. Each new job is given a complete feasibility review by a multi-functional team to ensure that IW delivers exactly what the customer specifies.\r\n\r\nIW documents and reports all activity on our customers8217; accounts. This includes the number of rejected items in each shipment, the type and extent of rework, the total number of man hours and other relevant customer information. Our customers are always 8220;in the know8221; about their shipments in Turkey. IW personnel represent the interests of the customer.\r\n\r\nWhat does a sorting and rework company do?\r\nIW provides independent, third-party containment and disposition of nonconforming products. Containment plans include provisions for shipments to be 100 inspected and clearly identified as conforming product.\r\n\r\nIf nonconforming product is detected, IW customers will be contacted for disposition which may include: use as is, rework, return to supplier or scrap. IW targets as its customers those manufacturing companies within Turkey who supply components and sub-assemblies to the automotive industry and those same types of manufacturing companies in Europe who export to Turkey.\r\n\r\nHow does it work??\r\nIn most cases, a company would require the use of an independent third party after receiving nonconforming product from one of its suppliers. Usually, the supplier has already been given at least one opportunity to correct the problem prior to being\r\ndirected to a third party. The supplier would be responsible for payment to the third party. This is a common practice among OEM8217;s, Tier I and Tier II who subscribe to QS-900
