While at Plastech I was tasked with the launches and transfers department whose struggles had damaged our quality ratings. Despite the large number of launches, 2007 was Plastech’s best launch record ever and quality ratings (50% PPM reduction) and customer satisfaction numbers (Ford Q1, Toyota, JCI, and DCX) all improved as a consequence.
