Although the company is only 22 years old, its personnel, coming from Alenia Spazio and various European space industries, has been involved in numerous procurement programmes, covering the whole spectrum of component types for spacecraft application.
TOP-REL engineers and managers have extensive experience in high reliability parts procurement and problem resolution to ensure parts deliveries at need time, at required quality level and at best cost.
The actual scenario of the hi-rel procurement is affected by an increased competition and high reduction on target costs and delivery times.
It is fundamental to get over the old management rules which are no more consistent with the actual reality. The answer consists by thinking of the Company in a global perspective, as a set of processes, instead of a single functional unit.
In this context, Top-Rel, starting from the identification of all their activities, have identified their main processes with the goal to improve their performance.
The first process has been identified on the technical activities dedicated to the implementation of the detailed procurement specification for hi-rel parts.
The second process has been identified by the activity sequence performed in the parts procurement area, up to release of the formal Purchase Order to the Manufacturer.
The third process has been the one related to the receiving of goods and relevant incoming inspections.
