The foundation of our quality control promise is our people. Every member of the GSS team is dedicated to quality in everything they do—and we believe quality extends beyond just manufacturing. This means you can count on world-class products, reliable communications, and excellence service, every time.

We also use state-of-the-art quality control systems to back up our team members. We integrate advanced process management technology into every aspect of sourcing and manufacturing, so there’s always an extra layer of monitoring for everything we do.

A quality part is the product of quality materials as well as quality design. We are committed to getting you the best available materials, with no impurities or issues. GSS invests in comprehensive laboratory testing for all raw materials that eventually become your parts. We collaborate closely with our materials suppliers, independent testing laboratories, and manufacturers to conduct testing at multiple stages of product development: prototype, pre-production, and production.

Every single part sourced by GSS is subjected to ISO 9001 certified inspection no matter where it’s manufactured. We have long-standing relationships with quality control personnel and auditors in every country where we do business, so you can trust that your parts are being examined at the source by experienced professionals vetted by GSS. This same process is used in all our domestic sourcing partners as well.

Every part that undergoes inspection overseas is subject to a second round of review once it reaches American soil. Our world-class quality control department has years of experience in ISO 9001 compliance. You can trust that a GSS team member will personally evaluate parts from every one of your shipments so that ISO 9001 compliance is guaranteed.

In addition to ISO 9001 certification and regular quality audits, we conduct first-article inspections on every job. We carefully review the first few units to ensure that production methods are meeting the standards and specifications of the drawing right from the start.

Many production runs are also subjected to random inspections to check for consistency. Production is monitored by optical automatic smart inspection systems, so we’re alerted to any drifts or changes and can address them immediately. Almost every single source GSS uses has SPC tracking software that is used in tracking how the job is running and is automatically sent to our GSS staff in the event of their being a discrepancy. This means that even when there are problems within production, it is caught on-sight at GSS… Not your facilities floor.

GSS works directly with suppliers in countries without tariffs so we can secure better prices for you on every project. We maintain relationships with trusted providers in several different countries, so you can choose from multiple sourcing options without ever having to factor in the costs of tariffs.

GSS has 150,000 square feet of state-of-the-art, ISO 9001-certified CNC machining facilities in Mansfield and Lancaster, Ohio, staffed with highly experienced machinists who can create your parts for you. Our team is equipped to pick up production at a moment’s notice and keep your project on track if something goes awry overseas.
