Both Phillips Industries’ North American Facilities Win DTNA Masters of Quality Award for 2012

Santa Fe Springs, CA (May 28, 2013) Phillips Industries is being recognized by Daimler Trucks North America with their Masters of Quality Award for 2012 earned by each of their North American manufacturing locations. The Commercial Vehicle Products (CVP) facility in Santa Fe Springs, CA is receiving the award for the fourth time since 2007; the Electrical Harness Division (EHD) located in Saltillo, Mexico is being recognized by Daimler for the second consecutive year.

 

DTNA presents the Masters of Quality Award annually to an elite group of suppliers who meet their rigorous standards and also show a commitment for continual improvement. Daimler’s suppliers are evaluated semi-annually on more than 100 criteria related to quality, service, aftermarket parts availability, engineering, warranty, and purchasing; and only those rated at the top are recognized with this award.

 

Phillips Industries supplies cab harnesses, trailer cables, and other related products to DTNA. Rob Phillips, Vice President of Global Operations for Phillips Industries commented about the dual awards for 2012 “We know that Daimler only gives their Masters of Quality Awards to a very select group of suppliers. Each of our facilities has been recognized by Daimler in the past, but for us to win twice in the same year for two plants is truly incredible. It’s a measure of our company-wide commitment to producing quality products within all our manufacturing facilities. Our customers can count on quality no matter which facility makes the product.”
