Purpose
& Overview
This
is a practical course showing the How's and Why's of developing standards
and being able to use them in your "Request for Quotation."
The course covers how to specify the tooling you want, how to get
a truly competitive quote with everyone quoting the same kind of tool.
The course further covers the contractual side of tooling agreements
that establish true ownership of tooling, how to handle authorized
and unauthorized engineering changes, progress reports and welding
procedures. The course further covers how tooling is approved, going
into detail concerning dimensional, functional and statistical tooling
approvals. To assure the tooling will last the course also provides
a set of preventative maintenance protocols.
