Quality: aiming for zero defects, sustaining the series

A daily standard, carried by the whole team, structured by recognized certifications and an inspection culture scaled to criticality. Quality is not decreed: it is built.

Approach

A structured approach, built into production

Our quality approach is designed as a pillar of industrial performance. It rests on a simple logic: anticipate risks upstream, stabilize manufacturing parameters, inspect in the right place at the right level, then build on feedback to durably improve processes. This approach reduces drift, secures launches and maintains a constant level of conformity over time.

From the industrialization phase, critical characteristics are identified and the inspection approach is scaled in line with the part’s function, its operating environment and the expected level of requirement. In series production, inspection becomes a steering tool: it confirms stability, detects drift and enables fast corrective action, before a deviation becomes a problem.

Inspection, in pictures and in three steps

01

Step 1

We identify our customers’ needs and set clear quality standards. Every project starts with a thorough analysis to guarantee satisfaction.

02

Step 2

We integrate continuous improvement methods. Through regular audits, we measure our performance and adjust our processes to achieve excellence.

03

Step 3

We train our team to master the latest technologies. Our commitment to know-how ensures quality at every step of our operations.

Certified quality

Certifications that commit us

Beyond the framework, these certifications reflect an operational reality: production discipline, right-sized inspection, and results-driven continuous improvement.

ISO 9001:2015

Quality management

A quality system audited and certified for all our activities.

IATF 16949

Automotive-grade requirements

The most demanding standard in the automotive industry.

95%+ service rate

A culture of service and consistency

Quality also shows in the ability to deliver. Over recent years, Vicari Violland has maintained a customer service rate above 95%, reflecting an organization built to honor its commitments, even in a demanding industrial context.

Continuous improvement

Stabilize, secure, progress

Quality plays out over the long run. That is why we build on series-production experience to continuously improve routings, reduce causes of variability and strengthen process robustness. The objective is constant: produce repeatably, limit non-conformities, and maintain a stable level of performance, even as volumes and constraints evolve.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Depending on part criticality and specification requirements, we can implement a reinforced inspection strategy, including 100% inspection on certain characteristics. The approach is scaled to the functional need, the series and the level of risk.
Repeatability relies on process stability, control of critical parameters, consistent inspection and production discipline. We work with a continuous improvement mindset to limit drift, secure launches and maintain conformity over time.
Yes. Our quality system is built on ISO 9001 and IATF 16949 certifications, which structure our organization and our standards. 📄 ISO 9001 certificate (PDF) · 📄 IATF 16949 certificate (PDF)
Depending on the project, we can provide the elements needed for quality follow-up and customer requirements, in line with the framework defined during industrialization and series launch.

A specific inspection need or a critical requirement?

Describe your constraints (tolerances, surface finish, traceability, 100% inspection, customer requirements). We scale the quality approach to the level of risk, to secure your series without unnecessary complexity.
