Quality

For Publishers and Information Providers, content integrity is paramount. Realizing this, SPi Global has made significant investments to incorporate quality in every phase of its service continuum: recruitment and training, production, quality assurance, and quality improvement.

Recruitment and Training
To ensure that we have complete control over the recruitment process, employees must pass a rigorous exam and background check before joining the company. Most employees have a Bachelor’s Degree and many have a Master’s Degree. All employees advance through our award-winning training program before being placed in a production environment.

Production
“Do it right the first time” is our guiding philosophy. Production personnel are supported by documentation, reference guides and other tools to help them deliver a high quality output. QA scores determine performance incentives.

Quality Assurance
To ensure transparency, SPi Global has a Quality Assurance group independent from the Production group. Every project has dedicated QA personnel assigned to perform end-of-line inspection prior to delivery. Statistical analysis of the errors observed help in identifying and fixing the root causes.
