THE
BEGINNING
QC Inspection Services was founded in March 1986 with a single
CMM after seeing a need for a Midwest-based dimensional inspection
and training facility. Since then, QCIS has advanced to become the
largest accredited independent dimensional inspection and
engineering laboratory in the Midwest with over 10 CMMs and 24-6
service.
QC Inspection Services now operates several facilities nationwide
and now employs more than 150 people. Its headquarters is located in
Burnsville, Minnesota, and offers services to include first
article inspection and reverse engineering, quality
control and manufacturing related staffing, consulting, and
training.
TRAINING AND CONSULTING
The QCIS training division has trained thousands of
individuals through our public workshops as well as delivering our
customized workshops to their customers' facilities. Their
professional trainers, all experts in their fields, leverage the
latest practical knowledge to support their customers’ manufacturing
processes improvement efforts. They will ensure that after a
training workshop, their client’s will return to the workplace with
the skills and competencies they need to perform at maximum
effectiveness.
The courses they provide range from technical courses such as GD&T
and Print Reading to ISO management Lead Auditor workshops.
Through their consulting division, they provide consulting,
ISO training, coaching, and project assistance in support of their
customers’ organizational improvement efforts and their customers’
goal of implementation of international system standards. Also
covered are QS9000, Benchmarking, Competitive Analysis, TQM, SPC
implementation Six Sigma implementation and more.
Their expert trainers and consultants bring their customer’s from
concept to certification as they tread the certification road
together. They have quality professionals on staff and a network of
consultants and trainers that have performed numerous projects -
from simple daylong consultation to implementation of entire quality
systems.
QUALITY AND MANUFACTURING RELATED STAFFING
In 1987, QCIS began offering temporary staffing services. QC
Staffing Services, the company's staffing group, provides
temporary quality and manufacturing professionals (including CAD)
and project support for short-term and long-term staffing needs.
Their candidates are interviewed, tested, screened and their skills
evaluated. Hands-on assessments are used for a variety of related
skills. Candidates interested in applying for a position meet with a
Staffing Coordinator to thoroughly discuss their current and future
employment goals and objectives.
Some of the staffing options are “Temp-to-Perm,” Direct Hire or just
plain temporary project needs such as containment or source
inspection projects.
QCIS Staffing Services has offices in six locations throughout the
US – Minnesota, Illinois, Wisconsin, Michigan, Texas and Florida.
The placement team prides itself on staying within the quality and
manufacturing "niche" and keeping its services focused on the
client.
FIRST ARTICLE AND ENGINEERING LAB
First articles and dimensional inspections are the most
common service provided by their ISO 17025 accredited inspection
lab. All of their inspectors are ASQ certified to the inspector,
technician or engineer levels. With this level of knowledge coupled
with over 300 years of combined experience in the quality field,
it’s no wonder that their customers continue to rely on them for
accuracy, timeliness and excellent service.
QCIS has been performing reverse engineering services since
1986. That experience has developed into a robust process designed
to first capture a customer’s project goals and objectives before
geometry capture actually begins. This is a critical first step in
reverse engineering. What they deliver, and the format the results
are delivered in are very dependent on the geometry’s end use. A
critical objective is to understand the customers’ needs for each
project.
INDUSTRIES SERVED
The industries served are Manufacturing Automotive, food, health
care, medical device, military, aerospace, plastics, electronics,
metal forming and more in locations spanning across the continental
United States.
PHILOSOPHY (MISSION)
QC's success can largely be attributed to the founders' vision of
operating a company with integrity and the belief that each
customer's requirements should be met with accuracy, precision and
timeliness.
CLIENT TESTIMONIES
According to customer surveys, QC's clients agree about the quality
of its services.
"I have worked with QC Inspection Services for the last 11 years.
I've found their work to be accurate and on time, and their pricing
is fair," Wally Wegner of Phillips Plastics Corp. said. "On
numerous occasions, I have recommended them to others within
Phillips Plastics and to numerous contacts outside my company."
Mike, from John Deere says, "With the FaroArm portable CMM, the
job took a third less time and gave us a better level of detail than
our current method."
Rich Coppersmith, manager of human resources at Kurt Manufacturing
Corp. in Minneapolis, said, "QC is my 'go to' company. I 'go to'
them when I need good results. They take my requests seriously and
are responsive to my staffing needs. By understanding the quality
side of business and thoroughly screening candidates, they do a
remarkable job at providing us with quality people."
