VQC Onsite Training & Auditing ServiceSince September 2009, the Vendor Quality & Compliance Team has been conducting regularly-scheduledVendor . Training Sessions at our sites in Melbourne, Sydney & Brisbane. These free, half-day sessions giveparticipants an excellent opportunity to understand Woolworths’ requirements; Vendors who attend thesesessions tell us that they find them highly informative and a huge advantage in understanding whycompliance is so important and learning exactly what they can do to improve their own performance.Beginning in 2013, the VQC Team will only run these sessions three times over the course of the year; seatsare very limited and the sessions can only be offered in those three Eastern, mainland states at this time.We understand that, as people move in and out of your business, it can be difficult to keep re-educating andto find the time to get everyone to a training session...so the VQC Team are now offering to come to you.What Does The Service Offer?Tailored training session(s) for your company, covering:SSCC Pallet Labelling Carton GTINsPallet WrappingCarton QualityPallet StabilityCarton LabellingPallet QualityShelf-Ready PackagingWOWlink Navigation D.O.T., I.B.S.L., A.D.S.L.WOWlink Reporting G.P.O.A., Case Fill etcReview/discussion of company-specific VQC issues...and a Full Site Audit (or Audits) with Full Audit ReportIf you can’t make it to our sessions, a member ofthe Woolworths VQC team can travel to your site(or multiple sites) to conduct training and auditing.Vendors utilising this new service - including Heinz,Tey’s, Tassal & Pernod Ricard Australia - have foundit invaluable; it allows sole focus on their business,detailed evaluation of their despatch operations,and means that whole teams can benefit fromtraining without the time and expense of travel.If you are interested in this one-on-one Service,contact the Woolworths VQC team - 02 8885 3361 orvendorcapability@woolworths.com.au - for details.Why are vendors choosingPrimary Freight?Nestle, Unilever, Inghams, Sanitarium, Lion Nathan, Kraft and close to 800 other vendorsare using Primary Freight to deliver product into Woolworths distribution centres.The customer service and operations team ensure the highest level of service by managing the pick upand delivery of Woolworths orders, whilst ensuring chain of responsibility compliance is met.Woolworths Primary Freight has welcomed many new clients recently through its commitment todelivering product on the right day, in the correct quantity and quality.
