  2. In the beginning there was aplan and it was good.

  3. Thus the beginning of VSE Corporation’s Quality Management System

  4. The Quality Management System was instituted to ensure product and service quality to our customers.

  5. Mission Statement: VSE Corporation – Our systems help people to succeed “VSE Corporation helps organizations succeed through the effective use of people, systems, and technology.In helping others succeed, we increase shareholder value by capturing new work, delighting our customers, increasing our technical competence, and building great industry teammates. Our reputation for success, and our quality management system, are based on honesty and integrity in everything we do; on communications, on teamwork and leadership; and on an enduring commitment to help our customers, employees, and teaming partners succeed with cost effective solutions, continuous learning, and process improvement.”

  6. QualityObjectives: A. Continuously improve the Quality Management System through employee involvement and process improvement B. Provide quality products and services that meet all of our customer requirements, needs, and expectations at a fair price

  7. The Quality Management System (QMS) is broken down and Organized into Seven Core Business Processes: Proposal Process – 1.0 Contract Review Process – 2.0 Project Planning Process – 3.0 Project Execution Process – 4.0 Verification and Validation Process – 5.0 Product Delivery Process – 6.0 Quality System Process – 7.0

  8. PROPOSAL PROCESS – 1.0 Market Worldwide VSE Corporation customers are primarily agencies of the U.S. Government and Government prime contractors while principal international customers are the naval forces of countries allied with the United States. As a result, VSE markets our complete range of engineering, technical/logistics support, information technology, advanced technology, management services, system management, program management, systems engineering, and integrated logistic support to a worldwide market by responding to request for technical proposals. Prepare RFQ/Proposal and identify Product/Service Requirements As a result of marketing efforts VSE Corporation may be required to respond to requests for quotes for potential work. VSE reviews all requests for quotes prior to submission to ensure the proper resources such as equipment: personnel, facilities and knowledge are available to accomplish the project and to satisfy the customer requirements.This pre-solicitation review is accomplished in accordance with corporate procedure CPP-100. this process includes review and determination of: Specific customer requirements, including delivery, andany post-delivery actions. Specific non-customer requirements, base on engineering or technical knowledge of the end item or service function. Specific statutory and regulatory requirements the relate to the product or service, and specific internal requirements to ensure the successful completion of the project.

  9. PROPOSAL PROCESS – 1.0 Market Worldwide CGPM-15 (FROM 6.0) CPP-100 Prepare RFQ/Proposal and Submit NO YES Contract Awarded (TO 2.0)

  10. CONTRACT REVIEW PROCESS – 2.0 Review Contract and Review Product/Service Requirements VSE Corporation ensures that all requirements received from the customer are fully understood and that capability exists to meet all aspects of the customer’s requirements. Contracts are reviewed prior to acceptance through a documented process described by procedure CPP-106. The review verifies that: • The requirements are adequately defined and documented. • Any requirements differing from the proposal are identified and resolved. • Capability is maintained to meet contract requirements. Quality records of contract reviews are maintained. Prior to acceptance, customer requirements must be clearly understood. When customer requirements are not clearly defined or provided, it is VSE’s responsibility to conform the required requirements. Contract modifications are also reviewed and approved in accordance with CPP-106, para. 4.2. Upon acceptance of contract modifications, all affected functions are advised of the impact.

  11. CONTRACT REVIEW PROCESS – 2.0 CPP-106 CPP-106 Review Contracts Identify Product/Service Requirements Review Product/Service Requirements CPP-106 (TO 3.0)

  12. PROJECT PLANNING PROCESS - 3.0 Implement Design Controls VSE Corporation through our quality management system provides the required processes to plan and control the design and development of products in accordance with QMP-106, para. 4.6. Components of the design process includes: • Maintained procedures to identify, document, review and approve all changes andmodifications of designs. Design plans are updated as the design evolves throughout the entire process. Interfaces between different design functions or groups are defined and information flows are prescribed to ensure effective communication of purpose • Conduct of design reviews to formally verify and ensure achievement of design requirements. Where VSE is fully responsible for design, designs are validated to ensure fitness for the intended application as defined by the customer requirements. • Creation of design plans to identify the responsibility of each design and development activity. Activities are assigned to qualified staff equipped with adequate resources.

  13. Create Project Planning Documentation VSE Corporation utilizes the appropriate controlled conditions to produce product and provide engineering services. These controlled conditions are cited in our planning documents such as Project Plans and Quality Plans. These planning documents ensure that: • appropriate data and information are available to employees that clearly describes the customer requirements and product/service characteristics • appropriate guidance documentation is available to employees in order to accomplish their project assignments • appropriate and safe equipment is available for employee use • appropriate and calibrated inspection, measuring and test equipment (IM&TE) is available for employee use • appropriate monitoring techniques have been identified • appropriate inspection and shipping activities have been identified and communicated to all employees involved

  14. Create Quality Planning Requirements The Quality Objectives are corporate level requirements for quality. The Quality Objectives are consistent with our Quality Policy and require measurement on a constant basis to monitor the achievement of performance goals. However the stated Quality Objectives themselves are reviewed by the Executive Steering Committee (ESC) and revised, as required. Division Managers and Staff Directors are responsible for communicating Quality Objectives and goals to their employees. Manage Customer Related Processes VSE Corporation strives to provide our customers the highest quality products and services. In order to accomplish this objective project personnel develop a working relationship with our customers in order to better understand their needs and expectations. Managers communicate with their customers on a regular basis throughout the life of the project. Prior to the start of any project, project management is responsible for informing the customer(s) of established communication channels. Information and feedback obtained during the communication phase include items such as: • Information and data on the product or services being provided • Contract or project administration information such as modifications, change of scope, or delivery data

  15. c. Customer concerns which are handled in accordance with QMP-104 Responsibilities for customer communications are to be defined and documented in the Project Plan/Quality Plan. Customer communication records are to be listed on a Quality Record Matrix (QMF-048) and maintained throughout the life of each project. Provide Necessary Resources Division Managers and Staff VPs are responsible for providing the necessary resources to successfully: • Implement and maintain the QMS while continually improving its effectiveness • Enhance customer satisfaction by meeting or exceeding task (customer) requirements Resources required to accomplish this mission may include people, subcontractors and vendors, information, computers, office furniture or space, or financial investments. Organization of resources are handled in accordance with QMP-105.

  16. Managers are required to provide and maintain the appropriate infrastructure required to support the successful completion of customer task in accordance with stated requirements. Infrastructure includes, as applicable: facilities, office and shop space, utilities, hardware equipment, software equipment, and supporting services such as accounting, communications and transportation.

ON-Site - Work environments such as shipyards or military bases may call for special requirements dealing with hazardous materials, security or other issues. On-site managers are responsible for identifying and adhering to all site-specific requirements. Procure Material and Service Purchasing documents (forms PUR-1/E, PUR-102/E, or PURIDIOM) clearly describe the products/services ordered, including where applicable: a) requirements required for product/service approval, procedures, processes and equipment b) requirements for qualification of personnel, and c) quality management system requirements. Purchase documents are reviewed and approved, in accordance with GPM-23, prior to release to the vendor/supplier by the appropriate personnel.

  22. Verify Product/Service Purchased products/services are inspected upon receipt in accordance with QMP-115. As required, customer representatives may verify conformance to requirements as specified in the purchase order. When contractually required, VSE arranges for the customer or customers representative to conduct verification of purchased products, to include all products supplied by subcontractors. Monitor/Measure Process Conformance VSE Corporation monitors key characteristics of our core quality processes in order to validate the ability of these processes to achieve planned performance levels. Performance related measures (key performance measures – KPMs) are utilized as a means to measure how well our quality processes (and products) support the corporate policy and quality objectives. These KPMs are obtained as a result of quality activities such as internal audits, corrective and preventive actions, performance evaluation reviews, customer concerns and customer satisfaction surveys (ref. QMP-114).
