Advanced Elastomer Systems, L.P. (AES), an affiliate of ExxonMobil
Chemical (NYSE:XOM), has achieved certification to the globally
accepted automotive industry quality standard ISO/TS 16949:2002.
The manufacturer of Santoprene(TM) thermoplastic vulcanizates
(TPVs) is the world's leading supplier of TPVs to the automotive
industry. "For 25 years, we have worked to provide our customers in
the automotive industry with the best possible service and our
certification to ISO/TS 16949:2002 demonstrates our ongoing
commitment to them. This certification can enable our customers to
get programs and parts approved quicker and give projects greater
credibility," said Bob Liskiewicz, Global Sales Manager, Santoprene
specialty products. Regarded as a completely new standard, not just
an update to the currently held QS-9000:1998, ISO/TS 16949:2002
focuses on continual improvement and customer satisfaction. The
standard aligns American, German, French and Italian automotive
quality system standards within the global automotive industry,
eliminating the need for multiple certifications to satisfy
customer requirements. ISO/TS 16949:2002 requires customer
satisfaction surveys, a continuous evaluation and analysis of
technical, manufacturing and testing data, and evidence of
compliance with customer requirements and efficiency of process.
"The certification has helped us to improve our efficiency,
streamline our operations especially in terms of new material
development, align marketing and technology more closely and,
importantly, better anticipate our customers' future needs. By
applying a consistent quality system throughout the supply chain
and establishing stronger links with our customers, we will all
benefit as the industry continues to develop," added Liskiewicz.
