Home / What We Do

One offer,
four domains

Business transformation across Quality & EHS, Design & Engineering, Manufacturing & Operations, and Cost Improvement — because in industrial companies, these are rarely separate problems. We work across all four, or focus wherever the leverage is greatest.

01
Domain One · Quality & EHS

Strategy to shop floor —
one discipline, not parallel tracks

Quality and EHS share the same operational logic: identify risks before they materialise, embed controls into processes, measure performance, and improve continuously. We treat them as a unified discipline — with the depth to work on each independently and the experience to integrate them where it creates real value.

Strategy & Gap Analysis

A Quality and Sustainability Strategy co-developed with senior management, a company-level Gap & SWOT analysis, and a clear Step-Up Plan. In crisis, we design and lead high-intensity Crash Plans.

Sustainability & Decarbonisation

ESG strategies linked to business objectives, with practical Net Zero roadmaps across Scope 1, 2 and relevant Scope 3 emissions, aligned with SBTi requirements.

Management Systems & Certification

Design, build and certify robust systems — ISO 9001, IATF 16949, AS9100, IRIS, ISO 14001, 45001 and 50001 — for single sites and complex multi-site schemes.

Audits & Assessments

Risk-based audit portfolios across quality, EHS, energy and sustainability, plus Hidden Factor Assessments that look beyond documentation to leadership behaviour and culture.

Business Process Management

APQP, Management of Change, PPAP/ISIR/FAI, Customer Complaint Management, supplier approval and risk management — defined, deployed and owned.

ESG Reporting & Digitalisation

Audit-ready ESG and quality data processes, CSRD/ESRS support, and Digitalisation Roadmaps that open the door to AI-driven, proactive quality and EHS.

02
Domain Two · Design & Engineering

Product development &
technical excellence

A prevention-first approach to product and process design. Using Design for Six Sigma methodologies — particularly the IDDOV roadmap — we help engineering teams design performance and quality into products before manufacturing begins.

Design for Six Sigma & Reliability

Robust Design, statistical tolerancing, Monte Carlo simulation, Design FMEA and Process FMEA, reliability engineering, and Design for Environmental Performance — catching problems before they become warranty claims.

Warranty Analysis & Field Problem Resolution

Weibull analysis, nonparametric analysis and regression modelling to predict return rates, characterise failure mechanisms and narrow the problem population — then structured workshops to resolve root causes.

Innovation Events

Facilitated workshops using TRIZ, Design Thinking and Lean Experimentation to generate, prioritise and validate disruptive solutions — with measurable outcomes and a clear path to implementation.

Intellectual Property Strategy

End-to-end IP support from prior art searches and patentability assessments to technical drafting and international protection strategies — grounded in real mechanical engineering depth.

03
Domain Three · Manufacturing & Operations

Operational excellence —
Lean, Zero Defect, Procurement

Corporate-scale programs to eliminate waste, reduce variation, and build resilient, cost-efficient supply chains — structured to scale from a single site to a multi-plant global rollout.

Lean & Zero Defect Programs

Zero Defect initiatives embedded from design release to final delivery. Lean Production Systems with visual management, kaizen and waste elimination. DMAIC problem-solving for chronic issues, with energy and resource efficiency built into the same framework.

Advanced Procurement & Supply Chain

Strategic sourcing through to supplier development and performance management. RFQ risk assessment, total cost of ownership analysis, and quality/EHS/sustainability requirements integrated into procurement — with particular depth in automotive and industrial machinery.

04
Domain Four · Cost Improvement

A transversal engine for
product cost

Cost improvement is not a by-product of quality work — it is a discipline in its own right, one Qualamantis can activate independently of any quality transformation. The Cost Improvement Program (CIP) is a standalone, transversal module spanning design, manufacturing, procurement and quality.

CIP — The Engine

A structured program to find and capture cost — in product design, process efficiency, quality losses and the supply chain — before it becomes permanent. It can be triggered by a specific cost pressure, as part of a broader transformation, or as an autonomous initiative.

CoNQ — The Diagnostic

The Cost of Non-Quality maps internal failure, external failure, appraisal and prevention costs — turning abstract quality problems into a business case. CoNQ is not the trigger for CIP; it is one of its diagnostic tools.

How a CIP engagement runs

Step 1DiagnosisCross-functional cost mapping, CoNQ assessment, product cost benchmarking.

Step 4ImplementationHands-on support with financial validation of real, sustained savings.

05
Training & Competence Development

Building the capability
that sustains transformation

Transformation stalls without capability. Our training programs are designed not as standalone courses but as levers for organisational change — targeted at the skill gaps that block performance. We begin with a competence assessment, then match content, format and pace to the gaps found.

Quality, EHS & Sustainability

QMS and EHS management systems (ISO 9001, IATF, VDA, ISO 14001/45001/50001), auditing techniques, critical-to-quality processes, FMEA, problem solving (A3, 8D), MSA/SPC and CSRD/ESRS reporting.

Six Sigma & Design for Six Sigma

DMAIC Green Belt and Black Belt, DFSS Green Belt and Black Belt, Lean Six Sigma, Robust Design, Statistical Tolerancing, Monte Carlo Simulation and Reliability Engineering.

Leadership & Executive Coaching

Dedicated coaching for Chief Quality, Technical, Purchasing and Sustainability Officers, plus broader culture programs to build ownership and operational discipline at every level.

Delivered in-person, blended (remote trainer + e-learning), or as pure e-learning modules — depending on participant numbers, topic depth and organisational preference.
