Rework and Repair Services for KTP Suppliers in Louisville

SupplyShield reworks suspect parts to specification and documents it, so a quality issue does not turn into a shortage at the Kentucky Truck Plant. When parts can be brought back to print, rework recovers value you would otherwise scrap and keeps certified stock flowing. Our local crews handle the sort, the rework, and the records together.

Rework that keeps the line supplied

Scrapping suspect stock during a spill often creates a second crisis: a parts shortage. Where a defect can be corrected to print, rework recovers those parts and protects delivery. We define the rework standard with you, train the crew to it, and inspect after rework so only truly conforming parts are certified. The result is fewer shortages and less scrap during containment.

Documented and reversible where required

Every reworked lot is recorded: what was done, to what standard, inspected by whom, with traceability to certified stock. Where the customer requires that rework be approved or reversible, we work to that requirement so the operation holds up under audit and does not create a new nonconformance.

Integrated with sort and containment

Rework rarely stands alone. We run it alongside the sort and containment so suspect, reworked, and certified stock stay clearly separated and the data stays consistent for your 8D and your exit. Call 905-260-2388 to set up a rework and sort crew.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between rework and repair?
Rework brings a nonconforming part back to full specification. Repair makes it usable but not fully to original spec and usually needs customer authorization. We handle rework to print and can support documented repair where the customer approves it.
Does rework need customer approval?
Rework to specification is often acceptable within your process, but repair, or any change that deviates from print, typically requires customer authorization. We document either so it holds up under audit.
Why rework instead of scrap?
Because scrapping suspect stock during a spill can cause a parts shortage and stop the line. Where parts can be corrected to print, rework recovers value and protects delivery.
Do you inspect parts after rework?
Yes. Every reworked lot is inspected against the standard before it is certified, with traceability to the certified-stock record, so only conforming parts ship.
