We would discuss the quality requirements for raw materials and components, and I would provide them with specific details and specifications to ensure their understanding. Additionally, I would conduct supplier audits to assess their production processes and quality control measures. By establishing strong relationships with suppliers, I was able to address any quality issues promptly and work together to find solutions.
