An emergency containment event at an OEM assembly plant in Southern Ontario is one of the most stressful situations a supplier's quality team can face. Suspect material at the plant, an SQE demanding immediate action, and a remote quality team trying to coordinate a response from hours away — this is exactly the situation that Integrity Driven Solutions was built to handle.
What Is an Emergency Containment Event?
An emergency containment event occurs when suspect or non-conforming material is identified at an OEM assembly plant and immediate action is required to prevent it from being built into vehicles. The OEM's SQE team will demand an immediate response from the supplier — including physical containment of the suspect material, a preliminary root cause assessment, and a corrective action plan.
