Quality systems for startups that want to grow.
Startups do not need corporate QM. They need structure that stabilises the business without slowing it down. We build lean quality systems that grow with you — sprint by sprint.
Three starting points we see regularly in startups.
"First major customer requires an audit"
Your first B2B customer wants to see that you deliver reproducibly. Your processes are good — but documentation is light, there is no QMS, and there is no audit experience.
"We are growing, and so is the chaos"
Three people a year ago, fifteen now. What started as improvisation does not scale. Single individuals become bottlenecks of knowledge.
"Investor wants a robust quality structure"
Due diligence is around the corner. The investor wants to see that quality is not dependent on one person, but exists as a system. You have three months.
Food and tech startups.
Both worlds have their own logic. We bring tailored packages for each.
Food startups
You produce or distribute food — alternative proteins, functional drinks, organic snacks, specialty nutrition, online food retail. First retail customers require IFS Food or FSSC 22000. HACCP concept, traceability, supplier evaluation — you know they are coming.
More on food startups →Tech and manufacturing startups
You build hardware, industrial IoT, robotics, special machinery or processed products. B2B customers require ISO 9001, some IATF, AS 9100 or EN 13485. Complaint and change management, inspection planning, supplier qualification — the basics need to be in place.
More on tech startups →Three phases to a robust QMS.
Instead of corporate waterfall we work in sprints. Each phase delivers a concrete outcome that you can build on — even if the next package comes later.
Position assessment
Gap analysis in a week: where do you really stand, which standard fits your business model, what is the leanest path to audit-readiness. Documented current state and a prioritised backlog.
MVQ — Minimum Viable QMS
In 8-12 sprints to the leanest audit-ready QMS your standard requires. No corporate overhead, but all mandatory blocks: policy, risks, processes, responsibilities, document control, audit.
Audit-readiness and scaling
Stage 1 and Stage 2 audits. After that: stepwise expansion where the business requires it. Not everything at once — only what the next growth stage demands.
What sets us apart from classical consulting.
Fixed price instead of day rates
Three clear packages (Start / Build / Maintain). You know in advance what you get — and what it costs.
Sprint rhythm instead of 12-month hope
Every two weeks an audit-ready increment. If a sprint does not deliver, it is clear in 14 days — not in 14 months.
25 years of QM, no consultant-speak
We have led audits, built supply chains, selected MES systems. You talk to the auditor, not to sales.
