Quality

VARGUS is a quality-focused company. We believe superior quality is

paramount in all aspects of our operations to ensure our products and
services satisfy the requirements of our customers.

Our approach is built on the following practices and achievements:

Technology

We pride ourselves on our proven quality control techniques and modern technologies, which include infrared automated inspection equipment and optical scanning and computer analyses, to ensure that our tools are manufactured to strict quality control specifications.

Final product inspection and testing are performed at our quality control laboratories using state-of-the-art equipment.

ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning)

As an organization, we strive for excellence by promoting a culture of continuous improvement in all of our processes and products. With this dedication to quality, it was only natural that in 2006 VARGUS adopted an advanced Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system specifically designed for the fabricated metals industry.

Upgrading to a single, unified ERP solution across the organization has enabled us to streamline our operations, excel in customer service and further improve productivity and organizational efficiency.
