Quality Manufacturing
Background
As the needs for higher quality products increased in manufacturing during the last
decade, ISO 9002 became a standard for measuring consistent quality and manufacturing performance. It became a critical need in a variety of markets with technological advances in the engine market.
UGA Solution
In addition to achieving ISO 9002, UGA went the extra mile to achieve a higher level of quality certification with QS 9000. Most recently, UGA has become certified to the new ISO/TS16949 standard which replaces the QS 9000 standard. The certifications cover UGA's manufacturing systems as well as their heat treating processes.

standards thus assuring consistent and reliable quality. The certification emphasizes UGA's commitment to continuously improve processes, products and services to deliver solutions of the highest value, thereby providing
a competitive advantage to our customers.
