Can you say six sigma? Or even ISO 9000. Do you have any quality system
requirements for your suppliers? I am sure we are paying for Moss Motors
having you check to see if your suppliers did their jobs. Also I would like
to volunteer my expertise in elastomers to get your suppliers to quit
selling rubber parts which are such garbage. It would be worthwhile paying
a 20% material surcharge for the better elastomer which will last a long,
long time. Amazing what we will put up with with very little complaint.
