GENERAL POLICY

Dee Electronics deploys a continual improvement philosophy throughout the entire organization. The improvement effort is driven by goals defined in the quality policy and quality objectives. Improvement opportunities are identified by analyzing quality performance data and information. Improvement projects are defined and implemented through the system of corrective and preventive actions and management review actions.

Causes of identified nonconformities are investigated and, where appropriate, corrective actions are implemented to ensure that nonconformities do not recur. Preventive actions are implemented to eliminate the causes of potential nonconformities. Corrective and preventive actions taken are recorded and are followed up to ensure that they have been properly implemented and that they are effective.

The quality system described in this section of the Quality Manual conforms to the requirements of the ISO 9001:2015 standard: Element 10.2 – Nonconformity and Corrective Action and Element 10.3 – Continual Improvement
