During my previous role as a Quality Control Specialist at XYZ Company, I successfully conducted supplier audits to ensure compliance with quality standards and identified areas for improvement. I introduced a risk-based approach to prioritize audits based on the criticality of the supplier's products or services. This approach enabled us to focus our resources on suppliers that posed the highest risk to our product quality. I also implemented a supplier performance measurement system that tracked key metrics, such as on-time delivery and defect rates. This system allowed us to proactively address any issues and drive continuous improvement. In terms of managing supplier quality, I established a regular cadence of meetings with our key suppliers to discuss performance, resolve any quality issues, and align on improvement initiatives. By implementing these measures, I was able to significantly improve supplier quality, reduce defects by 20%, and achieve a 98% on-time delivery rate. My ability to build strong relationships and collaborate effectively with suppliers played a crucial role in achieving these results.
