ABOUT COMPANY
SmithCraft Solutions Ltd (SCS Ltd) was established in 2018 as part of the general reorganization of AMO ZIL subsidiaries. As a successor of one of the subsidiaries, the company provided engineering and metal machining services to such customers as AMO ZIL, PJSC GAZ, Renault-Nissan-AvtoVAZ Group supplier.
In 2020, due to the reorganization of AMO ZIL production assets and the decision of the Moscow City Government to sell land plots for civil construction purposes, SCS had to seek diversification of its' activities.
Since 2022 SCS Ltd develops competencies in the field of development and organization of production of products made with the use of various technologies of metal and plastic processing, demanded by Russian consumers. In order to organize serial production of products, the company selects potential production partners of the People's Republic of China to organize contract manufacturing. Compliance of product quality with the required specification is ensured through independent audit of the Quality Management System (QMS) of the production partner and organization of product quality control at each stage of the production process.
