Quality Assurance

The integrity of Oakands supply chain is crucial. As a business, Oakland is accredited to BRC standards, with an in-house quality assurance department monitoring all activity.

Lots of companies are good a QA, in their factories, but do not always vet their supply chain and that's where Oakland come in. With the BRC Global standard for storage and distribution awarded early 2007, clients are assured that quality will not be compromised.

QA expertise is frequently requested via Oakland's distressed load management service.

Another area that the QA department step in is to handle short coded product, they are able to liaise with reputable companies for a quick sale or organize various charities in the area to collect goods if requested by the client. In instances where these routes are not viable, then disposal is organized. Contract packing, tempering operations all benefit by intensive cover by this specialised department.

Our QA team also head the company 'Waste not Want Not' environmental campaign, Oakland's campaign to reduce its own carbon footprint. Dedicated recycling units, energy efficient chillers and warehouse lighting systems have all being upgraded to allow this and with the team on board on energy savings schemes and encouraged to come up with 'new ' ideas, the momentum is growing.
