Our Services
Quality Manager for Hire
NexLevel can serve as Quality Manager for a company that does not have a person currently serving that function or when the company isn’t large enough to justify a full-time Quality Manager.
NexLevel can fill the gap by providing an experienced staff member to assist with:
Interpreting Customer Specification and relating them to Job Instructions
Assisting with the APQP/PPAP process
Setting up manufacturing processes, error proofing, and inspection gauges
Handling Corrective Actions and 8Ds, Maintaining calibration programs,
Creating inspection programs, instructions and fixtures
Developing robust procedures for supplier and supplier receiving functions
Internal Auditor for Hire
NexLevel conducts ongoing internal audits for companies in Michigan that want to supplement the work of their regular staff and raise the bar on their auditing procedures.
Many companies have noted dramatic improvement in the value of their internal audits, reduction of internal costs due to interruptions, and improvement in the results of registrar surveillance audits.
Because it serves as an impartial auditor, NexLevel often avoids the initial problems that occur when an employee of one department becomes upset at the criticism leveled by the employee of another department who has been designated as an internal auditor. While companies must develop a sustainable system of internal audits by employees, NexLevel can lead the way in facilitating the art of constructive criticism.
Business Design
At NexLevel, we specialize in customizing strategies and plans to suit your company's specific objectives and principles. Our business designs are meticulously crafted to position your organization for maximum efficiency, expansion, and longevity. Our plans may encompass a range of key elements, including market analysis, value proposition definition, business model determination, and organizational structure outlining.
Implementation of Management System for Registration & Certification
NexLevel is proud to say that every company that we have helped to prepare for its registrar’s auditing has achieved registration and certification. This 100% success rate is built on a clear understanding of what registrars require and what clients can accomplish practically. With the help of NexLevel, companies have received initial registrations and certifications that they conform to:
ISO 9001
IATF 16949
ISO 14001
NexLevel has extensive auditing experience and it customizes services to fit the needs of the clients instead of pursuing a "cookie-cutter" approach with bulk template packages.
Depending on the scope of the work, NexLevel offers special implementation packages for small companies to ensure compliance within a focused budget.
Management Representative
NexLevel can serve as a Management Representative prior to a surveillance audit to implement your internal audit requirements, complete internal audits, and review procedures and customer requirements.
Depending on the needs of the client, a NexLevel staff member can act as Management Representative from one day per week to one day per month. Companies often will engage NexLevel as the Management Representative when they discover their internal Management Representatives are overloaded with work that is considered more critical than the surveillance audit or when their staff are not yet experienced enough to fulfill the role. We use the Management Representative function as an opportunity to train internal personnel to take over these responsibilities.
