Processes and Production With a 5,000m² National Manufacturing and Distribution Centre located in Laverton, Victoria, interstate operations across the country and over 150 specialised staff, NHP Manufacturing has the experience, capability and capacity to successfully deliver your customised, engineered solutions. To ensure quality and consistency in both our project delivery and product manufacturing, NHP Manufacturing follows robust and streamlined processes and procedures. With a dedicated Process Team, tasked with the duty of ensuring all processes are effective and efficient, all manufacturing processes are documented and regularly reviewed. On time delivery is critical towards the success of any project. Understanding this and focusing on your project, a fundamental Key Performance Indicator (KPI) for manufacturing is our Customer Service Level (CSL). This KPI measures our performance in meeting scheduled delivery dates issued to you during the planning stage of the project. Ultimately our customers want their product on time and right first time. Throughout the project delivery and manufacturing process, NHP Manufacturing measures quality performance through a Right First Time (RFT) process. This includes the quality of the project designs issued to you through to the final testing of the manufactured product. Through the RFT process, any quality issues are captured and rectified, ensuring all RFT data is recorded for performance measurement (KPI) and continuous improvement. By providing you with a dedicated Project Coordinator, you can have confidence that all required steps throughout the manufacturing process are taken care of, from initial scope requirements through to final delivery. Our Project Coordinator will manage all necessary aspects of the manufacturing process to ensure a smooth delivery of your project. DETAILED PROJECT DESIGN PRODUCTION SCHEDULING TESTING LOGISTICS PROJECT SCOPE REVIEW CUSTOMER DESIGN APPROVAL MANUFACTURE Quality and Compliance In line with our Right First Time approach to the manufacturing process, we conduct a number of testing processes to ensure that the final product meets the design specifications and complies with the relevant standards. Through consistent product inspection and testing of each manufactured product we ensure when a manufactured solution is dispatched, that it is built right first time and ready for installation. Our Quality Assessment Request (QAR) process allows for any corrective actions to be implemented immediately and for any preventative actions to be rolled out as part of the continuous improvement process. During these testing procedures, all manufactured items are photographed at the time of testing. These photographs can be included in your project documentation to further assist you and your team to prepare for delivery and installation. We also offer a customer Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT) service which allows you to visit our manufacturing facility, undertake inspections and complete your own testing (please note: terms, conditions and costs may apply). 5
