Program Management Experts
Grede's extensive program management expertise helps keep customers' component development programs on track, on time and within budget.
To assist us in achieving these objectives, we have implemented a comprehensive system of program management protocols. They help us quantify, validate, verify and control every phase of a cast component's design and manufacture in these critical areas:
- Design Development
- Material Choice
- Process Choice
- Design Validation
- Testing
- Confirmation
- Prototyping
- Review
- Production
- Finishing and Machining
Valid Design Decisions are Assured
The hard empirical data generated by these protocols enable our program team to make objective evaluations regarding the many design, material and process choices available for every component.
Our program management system validates the decision-making process, minimizes design compromises and reduces component development time.
All of our design-to-manufacture processes become as cost-effective as possible and overall component quality and consistency show vast improvement.
Multiple Points of System Entry
Grede's flexibility, versatility and management expertise enable us to support customers at various "points of entry" in their product development process.
We can provide the complete package of design, development and manufacture of quality cast components. Or, we can provide complete engineering support for a customer's product development process.
We can quote to print for the manufacture of new or existing products and we can provide innovative solutions for existing product or process problems.
Grede can provide you with real design and process choices, resulting in the best cast component solutions.
