BUSINESS VALUE

Why Use VyVy for a CQI-12 Audit?

An independent CQI-12 audit gives you a technical view of the coating operation before weaknesses become customer findings or product-quality problems.

The service helps you:

  • Verify supplier CQI-12 compliance

  • Identify process-control gaps before customer audits

  • Challenge supplier self-assessment results

  • Prioritize corrective actions

For purchasing and Supplier Quality teams, VyVy can audit the supplier on your behalf and provide an independent report without requiring your own engineers to travel. For coating companies, the audit provides a practical assessment before an OEM, Tier 1 or customer review.

COATING PROCESSES

CQI-12 Coating Audit for Automotive Surface Treatment Processes

CQI-12 applies to a range of coating and associated preparation processes. Depending on the facility, the assessment may cover processes such as aqueous cleaning, mechanical cleaning, phosphating, powder coating, electrocoating, spray coating, dip/spin coating, autophoretic coating and curing operations.

Auditor selection is based on the processes being assessed. A powder coating operation and an electrocoat line require different technical knowledge. We therefore match the auditor profile to the actual coating technology rather than assigning a general quality auditor to every CQI-12 project.
