When we ask our customers what attributes would stand out from our flashlights, many respond: quality. That is why we wanted to start our series of interviews by our Quality Manager.<\/p>\n

Q:<\/strong> First of all, introduce yourself and tell us about your experience.<\/p>\n A:<\/strong> My name is Jaime Pereiras and I work as Quality Manager at Adaro Technologia<\/strong>. I hold a Bachelor\u00b4s Degree in Industrial Technologies (specialized in electronics), Master\u2019s Degree in Mechatronics Engineering, Master\u2019s Degree in Operations Management & Lean6Sigma.<\/p>\n I have experience in the management and development of European-level R&D projects in the electronic area, work that I have continued to develop also during my 7 years in Adaro, where I am mainly in charge of quality management tasks.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.9.7″ _module_preset=”default” text_font_size=”16px” hover_enabled=”0″ sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n Q:<\/strong> What are your duties<\/strong> as Quality Manager?<\/p>\n A:<\/strong> To ensure that the company uses all the tools available for the quality assurance<\/strong> of our products, as well as to provide new instruments that contribute to the improvement of our efficiency and service internally and externally.<\/p>\n This includes the entire manufacturing process of our products, starting with supplies (monitoring, approval and communication of requirements to our suppliers) as well as the after-sales follow-up and the feedback of our customers.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”3_4,1_4″ _builder_version=”4.9.10″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”||3px|||”][et_pb_column type=”3_4″ _builder_version=”4.9.10″ _module_preset=”default”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.9.7″ _module_preset=”default” text_font_size=”16px” hover_enabled=”0″ sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n Q:<\/strong> How would you describe the quality policy<\/strong> in Adaro?<\/p>\n A:<\/strong> Our main asset is that we have a trajectory of more than 100 years<\/strong> in which we have been able to acquire a lot of experience and know-how<\/strong>. In addition, we have the perfect combination of young professionals trained in cutting-edge methodologies and workers with a long career in the company. Our quality policy is based on these pillars, achieving an optimal balance between experience and continuous improvement.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.9.7″ _module_preset=”default” text_font_size=”16px” custom_padding=”||22px|||” hover_enabled=”0″ sticky_enabled=”0″ custom_margin=”||35px|||”]<\/p>\n Q:<\/strong> What does Adaro want to convey to its customers through “Made in Europe<\/strong>“?<\/p>\n A:<\/strong> This slogan means, in addition to the location of our factory and the supply chain of our products, that our production processes comply with the most demanding quality and safety standards imposed by the EU. In this sense, as an example, we can highlight the adoption of the ISO 9001<\/strong> Quality Management Standard already in the mid-1990s, the certification of our R&D&i Management system according to UNE 166002<\/strong> or, of course, the notification as manufacturers of ATEX and IECEx<\/strong> products. In addition, due to the organization\u2019s commitment to the environment, we are in the process of certification according to the ISO 14001<\/strong> Environmental Management Standard, which we will obtain throughout the year. <\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.9.7″ _module_preset=”default” text_font_size=”20px” custom_margin=”6px|||||” hover_enabled=”0″ sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n It is, therefore, a company philosophy, based on the production of high quality equipment that exceeds the requirements of our customers.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_4″ _builder_version=”4.9.10″ _module_preset=”default”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/adalit.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/iso9001.png” title_text=”iso9001″ _builder_version=”4.9.10″ _module_preset=”default”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/adalit.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/atex-iecex@4x.png” title_text=”atex-iecex@4x” _builder_version=”4.9.10″ _module_preset=”default”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/adalit.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/iso14001.png” title_text=”iso14001″ _builder_version=”4.9.10″ _module_preset=”default”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.9.10″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”5px|||||”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.9.10″ _module_preset=”default”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.9.7″ _module_preset=”default” text_font_size=”16px” hover_enabled=”0″ sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n Q:<\/strong> What about the 5S<\/strong>? What changes have occurred in the company and how do you rate them?<\/p>\n A:<\/strong>The 5S is part of the foundations of Lean Manufacturing<\/strong>. It is a methodology that provides order and discipline, and that fulfills above all a didactic task in the formation of the whole organization towards the culture of standardization and continuous improvement<\/strong>. Its adoption is, therefore, a firm statement of the company’s committment on reaching the excellence<\/strong>.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”3_4,1_4″ _builder_version=”4.9.10″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”3px|||||”][et_pb_column type=”3_4″ _builder_version=”4.9.10″ _module_preset=”default”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.9.7″ _module_preset=”default” text_font_size=”16px” hover_enabled=”0″ sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n Q:<\/strong> And finally, who is Jaime outside of work?<\/p>\n A:<\/strong> Well, a rather restless person about my hobbies. I am constantly looking for new experiences with no ambition other than the enjoyment of the learning process itself, so I have always spent my time studying something new (English, French, German, playing the saxophone…) and\/or practicing some sport (swimming, climbing or crossfit).<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_4″ _builder_version=”4.9.10″ _module_preset=”default”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/adalit.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/MicrosoftTeams-image.jpg” title_text=”MicrosoftTeams-image” _builder_version=”4.9.10″ _module_preset=”default”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Meet Jaime Pereiras, Quality Manager at Adaro Tecnologia<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":237200,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"on","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[165],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-237199","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-interviews"],"yoast_head":"\n\n
