Quality Built into Every Process: IATF 16949 as a Key Differentiator

At Alps Electric EMS, quality and transparency are at the heart of everything we do. Our IATF 16949 certification sets us apart by ensuring automotive-grade standards for traceability, precision, and process control—far beyond general EMS certifications.

Component traceability is key to our advantage. We provide end-to-end tracking of materials, parts, and processes, enabling fast identification of any issues and offering full transparency for OEMs, reducing risks and enhancing reliability.

Automation and Robotics for Consistent Quality

Our significant investments in advanced automation and robotics give OEMs the benefits of a highly efficient and reliable automated facility. Automated production lines, AI-driven systems, and in-line quality checks deliver Tier I-level performance with the flexibility of a Tier III facility, ensuring consistent production and minimal defects.

Our commitment to quality extends beyond certifications. Backed by ISO 9001 and EN ISO 14001, we operate a LEAN-led facility, rooted in the Japanese philosophy of continuous improvement (kaizen). At Alps Electric EMS, LEAN isn’t standard—it’s EMS+, with a focus on optimisation, waste reduction, and proactive problem-solving.

Transparency, traceability, and continuous monitoring ensure that issues are predicted and resolved early, keeping production efficient and compliant. OEMs have full visibility at every step of the process, allowing them to confidently track product lifecycles from design to delivery.
