SME’s weak on quality control


Small and medium-sized auto parts makers in Thailand need to improve their quality control as the country builds up its base as aglobal automotive centre, according to a Yokohama-based SME agency.

The Yokohama Industrial Development Corporation, an affiliate of the Economic Bureau of the city of Yokohama, provides comprehensive support for small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) located in the area. Most of the organisation's members are automotive parts manufacturers.

Thai SMEs should do an in-depth study on using advanced technology to upgrade their production, especially in terms of quality control, said Mr Honda who has been observing the manufacturing processes of Thai SMEs for three years by participating in activities of the Board of Investment.
