Akron, Ohio, April 17, 2018: Ferriot Inc., a custom injection molding company and contract manufacturer has appointed two new members to its quality team. Richard Hodnick has been appointed to Director of Quality and Joe Steger as Quality Engineer.
Rich has 30 years of experience leading both public and private companies in the areas of quality assurance, process engineering, reliability engineering and project management. Rich and his team of quality improvement engineers and technicians will be charged with advancing both our capabilities and increasing responsiveness and satisfaction levels with our customers.
Rich’s initial goals are registration of Quality Management Systems (QMS) for Ferriot and wholly owned subsidiary, American Original Building Products LLC, to the new ISO 9001:2015 quality standards. In addition, he will focus on fully integrating the QMS into the IQMS ERP system allowing the company to fully realize the benefits of this closed loop business system.
