Industry Week.com has an article about Proctor & Gamble's 2008 Top Supplier's.
From P&G's 80,000 suppliers 6 were selected. The selections were made "for scoring the highest in broad-based quantitative and qualitative evaluations conducted by the company."
I wonder what the criteria was? I assume the 6 had zero quality problems. Probably they met some cost reduction goal. Another criteria is probably delivery on time. What do you think it takes to be a top supplier? And, does your company qualify?
A Plant Rat works in the plant, factory, refinery, or processing facility. Somehow we learn to navigate the maze. Here we can exchange information, ideas and questions to help us improve the manufacturing process. We must reduce variation and standardize our work to produce the best quality possible.
