About QualityWise®

Our mission

From requirements to quality you can see in everyday work.

We support manufacturing companies in building systems and competencies that create predictability, reduce risk and help teams work more effectively.

1

Strengthen quality across the supply chain

We help build stable, predictable processes instead of organizations driven by constant firefighting.

2

Turn requirements into action

We translate IATF 16949, VDA, AIAG, CQI and customer requirements into practical solutions that can be applied on the shop floor.

3

Empower leaders and teams

We develop competencies that make audits, customer requirements and continuous improvement manageable rather than overwhelming.

Areas of support

Three ways to work together.
One goal: quality that works.

Our values

Principles reflected in the way we work.

Quality that works

We build solutions that work in real processes, meet requirements and stand up to both audits and day-to-day production.

Customer focus

We begin by understanding your situation, audit pressure and organizational constraints. The scope is always tailored to the goal, never to a ready-made template.

Improvement without illusions

We design solutions that can be implemented and sustained step by step, instead of perfect models that fail in practice.

No shortcuts

We do not look for workarounds. We help achieve compliance and process stability in a way that reduces risk instead of postponing the problem.

Automotive DNA

Automotive is our core sector.

It is the environment in which we work every day — with its audit pressure, customer responsibility, OEM requirements and production realities.

What we work on most often:

  • production process stability and reduction of recurring quality issues,
  • Core Tools used to support decisions, not simply to satisfy an audit,
  • audit readiness for IATF 16949, VDA 6.3, VDA 6.8 and customer audits,
  • effective corrective actions after complaints and nonconformities,
  • developing the competencies of engineers, leaders and internal auditors.

What this means for your organization

More confident auditsBetter preparation for OEM and Tier 1 customer assessments.
More stable processesFewer recurring issues and more predictable results.
Better decisionsFMEA, Control Plan, MSA and SPC supporting risk management.
A practical systemA quality system that works with production rather than alongside it.

We cooperated with QualityWise in our internal system audit according to IATF 16949. The preparations of the audit were extremely well done and there was a very empathetic communication level. During the audit itself, there was demonstrated a very high level of knowledge of all the applicable requirements, as well as a very analytical and detailed observations of the system evaluated. The level of professionalism and at the same time the pedagogical approach demonstrated with each topic and with all our team members really shows the commitment to the project. We were able to improve our systems adequacy and it allowed us to have a better performance during our third party audit.
Sergio PasarinhoQuality Director, Microplasticos
I am delighted to recommend QualityWise following the outstanding training delivered to the Exide team. Excellent preparation before the training was evident. The trainer took the time to understand our real cases and challenges, tailoring the program to address our specific obstacles. The training struck a perfect balance between formal instruction and practical exercises, allowing participants to apply concepts directly to our own cases. The results speak for themselves: following the training, our team has been able to produce higher-quality FMEAs more efficiently, significantly improving our processes and compliance with international standards.
Pierre-René HoudartChief Technical Officer, Exide Technologies
I had the pleasure of collaborating with Agata Lewkowska Ph.D. representing QualityWise Company who conducted an internal audit of the processes at Borg Warner Technical Center. The audit was carried out in accordance with the requirements of IATF 16949 (…). Agata Lewkowska Ph.D. diligently executed the expected audit plan and collected process samples during individual meetings with process owners. Throughout the audit she demonstrated a thorough and professional approach in both evaluation and advisory capacities. She showed an understanding of our company's operation and provided a clear and insightful explanation of the process owners' questions.

Michał MałekQuality Manager, OP Mobility
QualityWise delivered VDA 6.8 Supply Chain Process Audit training for our team. The sessions were clear, practical, and highly engaging, with a good balance between theory and real-world application. A particularly valuable aspect of the training was the practical part carried out in the warehouse environment. This hands-on experience allowed participants to directly apply theoretical knowledge in real-life scenarios, significantly strengthening their understanding and confidence in performing process audits. The training gave our team practical tools to better understand supply chain risks and strengthen our audit approach.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about QualityWise®.

Where does QualityWise® deliver its projects?

We operate globally through today's hybrid working options — online and on-site. Our primary market, however, is Europe.

In which languages can projects be delivered?

Projects are delivered in Polish, English and, in selected situations, German. The working language or languages are agreed at the start of each project.

Is the scope of support tailored to the organization?

Yes. We take into account the industry, processes, system maturity, customer requirements, participant roles and the expected outcome. We do not work from one universal template.

What is the best way to start working together?

The best first step is a free consultation, during which we learn about your situation, needs and expected outcome. For more complex consulting projects, we then propose a “Workshop Zero” — an opening session in which we jointly define the objectives, priorities, scope, responsibilities and the way results will be measured.
