HT Pho-Tronics receives MIL-PRF-31032 Certification

I am extremely proud to announce that client HT Pho-Tronics has received certification to MIL-PRF-31032 from the DLA (Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime). The company had long held the MIL-PRF-55110 certification, which has been replaced by MIL-PRF-31032. This certification adds to the company’s other QMS merit badges of ISO 9001 and AS9100. Unlike the ISO and AS certifications that focus on the quality management system, MIL-PRF-31032 is a printed circuit board performance certification concerned with manufacturing and process control, testing and reliability. The management team and workforce were heavily involved in the transition and were a key component of the success of the project. A heartfelt thanks & congrats to all!

SMT Engineering achieves ISO 9001: 2015 Certification with a perfect audit!

I am proud to announce that client SMT Engineeringhas received certification to ISO 9001: 2015 from certifying body Verisys. The company made the decision to differentiate themselves from other design services by pursuing ISO certification, and their hard work was rewarded with a perfect audit. This was a particularly noteworthy accomplishment as the QMS was developed from scratch and had no existing certification as a baseline. Greg Goltz (Director of Engineering), Steve Spelbring (Sr. Hardware Engineer and Rachel Maslanka (Engineering Project Specialist) embraced the challenge and engaged the entire organization in the effort.

Director of Engineering Greg Goltz stated:

“On behalf of SMT Engineering, I want to thank you for your knowledgeable insight, guidance, and patience during our recent ISO journey.  I am happy to report the hard work paid off as we have obtained our ISO-9001, 2015 certification last week and our audit could not have gone smoother.  I know we spent a significant amount of time working on our process documents and your expertise was well worth the investment. Our first audit had no major or minor findings, but we did receive a number of very positive observations. 

We started this endeavor trying to develop the process documents on our own, but quickly determined we could not accomplish this without external help and you came to us as a highly recommended industry resource.  Thank you again!  I will definitely use The Right Approach Consulting for future work and will gladly recommend your services to anyone that wants to obtain ISO Certification.”
