To bridge the gap between overseas OEMs/sourcing companies and Indian manufacturers by offering end-to-end sourcing, engineering, and quality assurance solutions for castings, forgings, and other precision-engineered components.

1. Supplier Identification and Evaluation

• Market Research & Supplier Mapping

  • Identify potential Indian manufacturers for castings, forgings, and engineering hicomponents.

  • Assess capabilities based on material type, processes (e.g., sand casting, investment casting, closed-die forging), and industry focus (automotive, energy, industrial, etc.).

• Supplier Qualification & Due Diligence

  • Conduct on-site audits to verify infrastructure, production capacity, quality systems, certifications (ISO, IATF, AS9100, etc.), and compliance with social, environmental, and legal standards.

  • Evaluate financial stability and track record of timely delivery and quality performance.

2. Design & Product Development Support

• Design Consultation

  • Review and localize technical drawings and specifications for manufacturability in Indian context.

  • Suggest design optimization to reduce cost and improve performance using DFM (Design for Manufacturing) and DFA (Design for Assembly) principles.

• Prototyping & Validation

  • Facilitate rapid prototyping with shortlisted vendors.

  • Coordinate the first article inspection (FAI) and validation against client requirements.

3. Project Management

• Development Phase Coordination

  • Act as a liaison between overseas client and Indian supplier throughout the development phase.

  • Maintain timelines, track milestone completion, and ensure proper documentation (PPAP, APQP, etc.).

• Progress Reporting

  • Provide regular updates on production status, challenges, and resolution plans.

  • Weekly or bi-weekly progress reports to client with photographic/video evidence if required.

4. Quality Assurance and Control

• Pre-shipment Inspection

  • Perform stage inspections and pre-dispatch inspections (PDI) based on client-specific quality plans.

  • Utilize measuring instruments and techniques (CMM, spectrometer, UT, MPI, etc.) as required.

• Process Audits

  • Conduct periodic process audits to ensure adherence to defined process flows, work instructions, and quality standards.

• Root Cause Analysis & CAPA

  • In case of non-conformance, conduct detailed RCA and implement Corrective and Preventive Actions (CAPA) with the supplier.

5. Logistics & Delivery Assurance

• Packaging and Export Readiness

  • Verify packaging standards, labeling, and protection for sea/air transport.

  • Ensure compliance with international shipping norms and customer-specific packaging requirements.

• Delivery Coordination

  • Assist in shipping documentation (invoice, packing list, CoC, test certificates, etc.).

  • Monitor logistics partner coordination for timely dispatch.

6. Value Engineering and Cost Optimization

• Analyze and recommend cost-reduction opportunities through:

  • Alternate manufacturing processes or materials.

  • Supplier consolidation or volume leverage.

  • Re-engineering or localization of components.

7. Continuous Improvement & Supplier Development

• Work with suppliers on continuous improvement initiatives (Kaizen, Lean, 5S).

• Train suppliers on global quality standards and client-specific expectations.

• Ensure suppliers maintain and share all required technical documentation:

  • Process Flow Diagrams

  • Control Plans

  • PFMEA

  • Material Test Reports (MTR)

  • Dimensional Reports

• Support clients in audit trails, traceability, and compliance documentation for critical parts.

9. After-Sales & Warranty Support (Optional)

• Facilitate resolution of warranty claims or rejections.

• Coordinate return logistics, investigation, and closure reports.
