QA subscription

QA departments face a large range of tasks that vary considerably. This makes perfect sense, as GFSI standards cover everything from management and HR through to sampling. It falls to the QA department to identify these requirements and implement them throughout the organisation. Precisely because quality managers work across such diverse areas and there's a shortage of skilled personnel, bringing in an external QA consultant can be beneficial. Normec offers this service through a QA subscription, providing QA departments with greater stability in an already challenging environment.

QA subscription at a glance

  • Discuss your needs annually, based on the QA annual plan, and receive customised support

  • Rely on fixed points of contact and work together to build your QA system

  • Spread the costs over a whole year

External QA advisor

Hiring an external QA advisor can provide stability. This advisor is familiar with current legislation and regulations, market developments, and can contribute fresh perspectives on ongoing issues. The advisor can also provide support during the activities mentioned above.

Clarity about expectations

We understand that when you engage an external QA consultant, you need certainty. You want clarity about what to expect from the consultant, and you need to know when they'll be visiting. Naturally, you also want to know who will be coming, so you can pick up where you left off from the previous visit. We also recognise that consultant costs can create spikes in the QA department's spending patterns.

Spread costs prevent peak expenditure

We will provide a quote for the work you have outlined to be carried out in collaboration with the advisor, which you can pay in instalments throughout the year; this means no more peaks in your spending pattern.
