文档介绍：Q1 第三版
I am excited to introduce you to our revised Q1 requirements which have incorporated the lessons learned from over a decade of launches and site development. As we strive for continuous improvement and customer satisfaction, we have developed our Q1 3rd Edition. Based on Supplier and Ford feedback as well as benchmarking, Q1 has been refined to address the evolving needs of supplier partners and customers in our pursuit of quality excellence. The relationship we hold with our suppliers is of key importance as we work together to produce quality vehicles and drive customer satisfaction. Q1 lets our suppliers understand exactly where they stand and helps them lead the way to achieve continuous improvement. The reward for improving quality and maintaining Q1 is not only additional business, but also the recognition that the supplier’s facility is one of the best in the business. The symbol of this excellence is the Q1 flag that is flown proudly over the best supplier facilities in the world. Our Q1 suppliers are valued partners, an integral part of our business fabric. Only by working in partnership will we be able to provide the high quality products our customers expect.
The Q1 journey, like the quest for excellence itself, never ends, driving towards the achievement of the new Q1 Gold and Silver awards, one of the key enhancements for Q1 3rd Edition. We appreciate all the work you have done so far to improve Ford quality. We look forward to continuing the journey together.
