CQI-23 gap assessments

AUDIT SCOPE
What Our CQI-23 Auditors Assess
CQI-23 evaluates both the molding management system and the controls applied in production.
AREA
VERIFICATION
Molding System
Responsibilities, competence, process documentation and quality planning

Parameters, operating windows, monitoring and reaction plans
Tooling & Equipment
Molds, machines, auxiliary equipment and preventive maintenance
Material Control
Material identification, storage, preparation and handling
Process Verification

The current CQI-23 assessment contains eight process tables covering the main molding technologies and process-control activities. Our auditors verify the documented assessment against actual production conditions.
BUSINESS VALUE
Why Use VyVy for a CQI-23 Molding Audit?
Molding problems are rarely limited to one machine setting. Material preparation, tooling condition, startup controls, process parameters, maintenance and inspection all affect the stability of the process.
A VyVy CQI-23 audit helps you verify supplier compliance, identify process weaknesses before a customer audit and challenge a supplier self-assessment with independent evidence. For Supplier Quality teams, we can conduct the audit locally at the supplier and report directly to your organization. For molding companies, the assessment provides a clear view of the areas requiring attention before an OEM or Tier 1 review.
MOLDING PROCESS
CQI-23 Molding System Assessments Across Multiple Technologies
VyVy can support CQI-23 audits covering the molding processes addressed by the current assessment, including:
-
Injection molding
-
Blow molding
-
Vacuum forming
-
Compression and resin transfer molding
-
Extrusion
CQI-23 also includes dedicated requirements for process control, testing equipment and part inspection. Auditor selection takes the molding technology into account. An injection molding operation and an extrusion process require different technical understanding, equipment knowledge and process-control experience.
