COST SAVINGS THROUGH THE USE OF QST
From audit to tracking to recall action
Quality defects cost millions
Faulty screw connections due to insufficiently tested tools can cause massive product recalls.
The consequences:
- High costs per affected unit
- Production downtimes and delivery delays
- Loss of reputation and customer mistrust
Financial risk
Assuming a recall costs €1,500 per unit. With 5,000 units affected, the damage adds up to €7,500,000 – without taking into account the long-term loss of reputation.
Image damage
A recall or faulty products can permanently damage trust in your brand. The negative perception among customers and partners often has long-lasting effects on brand loyalty and sales.
