Ford Motor Company Q1 Award -
Q1 stands for “quality number one”.
Our whole division worked as a team to produce a quality manual to boost quality. As a result of these efforts, we put together a quality management system over the course of two years and were awarded for our efforts. We improved quality, created a basic manual, and laid the groundwork for our future QS-9000 certification.
