-- Also Receive Ford's Q1 Preferred Quality Award --
PARK RIDGE, N.J., April 30 /PRNewswire/ -- Several branch locations of the
Hertz Equipment Rental Corporation have received the International
Organization for Standardization's (ISO) ISO9001:2000 certification for
quality management practices and, as a result, Hertz Equipment Rental has also
received Ford Motor Company's Q1 Preferred Quality award. Recipients of ISO
certification are Hertz Equipment Rental's Midwest branches in Wixom, Sterling
Heights and Detroit, MI; Cleveland, Columbus and Cincinnati, OH, Indianapolis,
IN and its North Central Zone office in Michigan.
Gerry Plescia, President, Hertz Equipment Rental Corporation, commented,
"Hertz Equipment Rental has been committed to aligning its management
practices with customer satisfaction objectives, and the ISO9001 system is an
industry standard that provides a benchmark for quality and service. The
continued improvements in our business practices that led to ISO9001
certification also resulted in Ford honoring us with the Q1 Award. We are
very proud of both achievements."
ISO9001:2000 certification requires a participating company to have
systematic approaches to identifying and managing numerous inter-dependent
business processes within the organization. The ISO9000 family of standards
represents an international consensus on good management practices to help
ensure that a business continually delivers products and services to meet the
customer expectations for quality.
Ford's Q1 Preferred Quality Award recognizes supplier facilities and
organizations whose quality systems meet stringent Ford requirements. Hertz
Equipment Rental locations earned the award because they achieved ISO
certification and met Ford's quality operating system criteria. The award
goes to companies that make continual improvements towards achieving service
and quality goals, including on-time delivery of equipment, service response
time, maintenance standards and overall customer satisfaction.
