we keep improving our processes
and your results

It all starts with proper preparation: we make sure we understand what you need, conduct a quality assurance audit, and run a test order before moving on to production. This phase is crucial to ensuring zero-error delivery.

Once the order has been checked and confirmed, the production process can begin. In a closed loop system that incorporates multiple checks, we ensure continuous improvement based on the principles of ‘plan – do – check – act’. Barcode scanning is used to conduct checks between each step in the production process. Process-related checklists are followed, including formal release to the next step after confirmation of quality. Automated process checks are increasingly used to streamline the process, reducing human intervention and maximizing our ability to ensure zero-error production.

At the end of production, once a final inspection has been conducted and the order has a certificate of conformity, the products head off to distribution. After signing for delivery, you have the opportunity to give us your feedback on how the process went. And because the order has already been checked, double-checked and confirmed every step of the way, placing a repeat order is easy. Andi can launch the production process at any time to resupply as needed, ensuring low warehousing, scrap and finance costs.
