Quality Policy
It can be done — you just have to find a way to do it
Our quality policy, in plain language.
TODO(client): pending leadership review and sign-off before this is presented as official policy.
Our commitment
Swiss machining is all we do, and quality is how we prove it. Every part that leaves Northern Precision is held to the print, whether the order is for five pieces or 160,000. We don’t treat quality as a final check — it’s built into how we set up the job in the first place.
How we hold to it
- Machine complex, multi-feature parts complete in a single chucking, so tolerance doesn't drift between operations.
- Hold tight tolerances — down to ±0.0005" — on the features that matter, verified during the run, not just at the end of it.
- Set up tooling and process around the part in front of us, not a one-size-fits-all routine, because hard-to-make parts don't come with a standard playbook.
- Treat every customer's print as the standard we're accountable to, and communicate early if something about a design doesn't hold up in the real world.
“It can be done; you just have to find a way to do it.”
That’s not a slogan for us — it’s the standard we hold our own work to. When a part looks impossible to make, that’s usually the part we want to figure out.
