Secure your purchases


Qualification of your forging and casting suppliers
Your expectations
You want to purchase parts produced using forging or casting processes (development of new parts, change of supplier, etc.) and you need assistance in choosing the right partner
Our solutions
In partnership with your technical and purchasing departments, our teams can intervene at various stages of the process:
- Validation of the manufacturing process in relation to the expected objectives or the technical complexity of the part
- Technical review of the design to ensure that the part is compatible with the manufacturing rules of the selected process
- Drafting of procurement specifications to formalise customer requirements (quality level, definition of controls, compliance with regulations, etc.) adapted to the chosen production solution
- Identification of a suppliers panel (foundries or forges) best suited to meet the specifications
- Critical analysis of supplier bids
- On-site prequalification of suppliers with your teams (strengths, technical acceptability, actual production capacity, etc.)
