Quality controls at Von Gahlen
The essential aspect at Von Gahlen remains the quality of products, which must be perfect. Our 5-step model ensures product quality by consistently assessing key reference points throughout the process. Every department at Von Gahlen contributes to ensuring quality at every stage of the process. By concluding each step with quality control, we consistently ensure high standards, enabling us to meet and exceed customer expectations. The 5-step model includes the Factory Acceptance Test, where the customer is present at our location to conduct quality checks alongside the team. I am involved in evaluating the process, both during and afterward, in terms of content and methodology.
Additionally, at the customer’s site, we perform a Site Acceptance Test (SAT) to ensure that everything meets our high-quality standards. Our mechanics carry out the assembly and installation, followed by thorough documentation. The project is only officially handed over to our service department after the customer has reviewed and approved the final results, confirming that all systems function as expected. This ensures a smooth transition and long-term support. Our mechanics leave the site only when the customer is fully satisfied.
ISO 9001 certified: your foundation for successful projects
Von Gahlen has been ISO 9001 certified since 2000. A solid foundation is already in place, as demonstrated by the extensive documentation, detailed registrations, and a well-filled database containing quality measurements. Employees are highly involved and promptly report any issues that arise. Quality is often perceived as testing product properties with the outcome being either acceptable or not. However, a modern quality management system goes beyond this, focusing on efficiency and collaboration between departments to structurally optimize processes and interactions with stakeholders in environmental and safety domains. A proactive approach to quality management is crucial, rather than merely consulting it as a reference when needed. Our customers expect quality and our ISO 9001 certification confirms that our processes consistently meet international standards.
Von Gahlen For Sure
'Von Gahlen For Sure' represents a strong ambition to communicate our commitment to quality to customers. My goal is to ensure that the internal system aligns with customer expectations, guaranteeing that all agreed-upon standards are met. The core pillars to achieve this include maintaining an up-to-date quality management system, providing tailored solutions, ensuring information reliability, and maintaining a professional approach. I thrive on working with like-minded individuals who hold themselves to high standards, and Von Gahlen provides the ideal environment for this.
Quality is an experience. By continuously bringing quality to the teams' attention and fostering collaborative solutions, quality becomes an integral part of daily operations. It lives within the organization, and no compromises are ever made when it comes to quality. Von Gahlen is fully committed to this approach.

Quality management
Within the current team, I collaborate with the quality engineer, who is dedicated to managing quality within production. The products that leave Von Gahlen meet international quality standards, regardless of the project's size or complexity. Whenever an independent perspective or specific expertise is needed, we work closely with the various teams within Von Gahlen. During projects, we adhere to international standards such as GMP, essential to our industry and customers, who often specify these as requirements. My role in this is overarching, encompassing not only compliance but also identifying improvements in general business operations to better serve the customer.
Ambition
In addition to continuously monitoring and improving processes, my ambition is to further develop the existing quality management system and ensure the satisfaction of all stakeholders. Today's systems are tightly structured based on business processes, with a layer of customized modules surrounding them. This ensures efficiency and allows for even better customer service. The next step at Von Gahlen is to integrate systems more effectively, combining various aspects and deploying them efficiently. This involves actively engaging people, fostering a healthy system that naturally embeds QESH within Von Gahlen.
