Quality

Darian prides itself on supplying high quality products to its clients. We understand that cost savings are quickly negated if the products supplied do not meet your quality requirements.

Quality is agreed before production begins

Darian supplies bespoke manufactured components to customer drawings and specifications. Quality is built into the supply programme from the start, with inspection requirements, documentation, approval stages and delivery expectations agreed before production begins.

We understand that cost savings are quickly lost if components do not meet specification, arrive without the correct documentation or create uncertainty during production. That is why Darian manages quality as part of the complete component supply process, from quotation and technical review through to manufacture, inspection and delivery.

Controlled component supply

Darian works through an established manufacturing network, with suppliers selected according to the process, material, quality and documentation requirements of each project.

As a minimum, suppliers are accredited to ISO 9001:2015, with many also holding additional approvals such as IATF 16949:2016 and ISO 14001 where applicable.

Suppliers are reviewed and audited by Darian in line with their quality assurance certification and the requirements of the component programme. In many cases, our manufacturing partners have also been audited by world-renowned customers operating in demanding industrial sectors.

Inspection, testing and documentation

Quality requirements are defined at quotation and order review stage, helping prevent uncertainty later in the programme.

Depending on the component, application and customer requirement, Darian can support:

Drawing and revision control

Material certification

Certificates of Conformity

Dimensional inspection reports

First Article Inspection

PPAP documentation, where required

Control plans

Traceability requirements

Non-destructive testing

Pressure or leak testing

Pre-shipment inspection

Packaging specifications

Supplier management and accountability

Darian manages the supply programme directly with its manufacturing partners, while remaining the customer’s single point of accountability.

We coordinate supplier qualification, production requirements, inspection stages, documentation and delivery schedules so that customers have one clear contact responsible for the outcome.

All suppliers observe Darian’s confidentiality requirements, helping protect customer drawings, technical data and commercial information.

Performance you can rely on

Darian regularly achieves strong ratings in customer supplier performance evaluations.

Our focus is on supplying components that are manufactured to specification, supported by the agreed documentation and delivered to the required schedule. Where requirements change, we communicate clearly, resolve issues quickly and agree practical next steps with the customer.
