CAPABILITY STATEMENT / DIX MANUFACTURING GROUP

DIX Manufacturing Group is a Third-generation family owned business that is 100% Australian owned and operated. Collectively our team has over 200 years of industry experience and a dedication and passion to constantly strive for continued improvement and maturity across the full spectrum of the business.

DIX Manufacturing Groups commitment to Quality and Project Management includes the implementation of a fully utilised ERP Management System. This software provides detailed project planning and total integration and automation across all elements of the business including:

> Contact Management > Call and Follow up Management > Quote Management > Sales Order Management > Job Management > Project Management > Shipping Management > Bill of Materials > Scheduling > Inventory Management > RFQ Management > Purchasing Management > Account AR and AP > General Ledger > Employee Management > Payroll Management > Quality Management

This ERP Management System is invaluable to us in the preparation of tenders and contract management by providing a structured, transparent and traceable planning platform. This platform enables quality control and compliance to be carried out during the manufacturing phase of each of the component parts and sub-assemblies right through to the final overall unit assembly. Through this pathway it is also possible for us to provide inspection records to customers upon request for their own personal internal records or as a verification of compliance, further more batch and serial number traceability of manufactured products can also be provided when this is beneficial to us or requested by our customers.

Here at DIX Manufacturing Group we are equipped with an Overhead Crane Capacity of up to 10 tonne and we have specialist tradesmen who are also skilled in the manufacturing of Pressure Vessels to the Australian Standard AS1210 & AS4458.

In some instances external supply chain management is central to our manufacturing process as our business policy is to engage with specialist service providers where necessary in order to allow for the highest possible standard of product to be produced at a market competitive price.

Our Production and planning personnel are trained in and utilise the Solid Edge Drawing package to assist with design and the integrity of information that is being transferred to our external service providers such as Laser Processing and Engineering Design Certification. Other external supply chain services available through DIX include CNC Machined components, Surface treatment, Welding Inspection and Certification.
