QUALITY MATTERS. YOUR CONTRIBUTIONS MATTER:
"Quality" is one of the most important concepts in manufacturing. Not only do quality processes help maintain the integrity of the business but they reduce waste, meet the customer’s expectations and most importantly, ensure the products are safe to use for your family, friends and our customers. Listen to Jeff Mickey, FCG’s quality manager, and learn how Parker’s Strategic Deployment plan focuses on the continuous improvement of quality within our facilities.
“Quality is never an accident. It is always the result of intelligent effort.”

LEARN FROM THE SUCCESS OF OTHERS
By learning from one another, sharing valuable insights and success stories from other High Performance Teams, we are able to continuously improve our processes and deliver quality products to our customers. Using input from other teams allows lessons learned and Best Available Resource Networks (BARNs) to be shared and used, enabling us to quickly establish stable, capable, and predictable processes that enhance our overall performance. This collaborative approach not only fosters an environment of mutual growth but also ensures that we consistently meet and exceed quality standards, reinforcing our commitment to delivering premier customer experiences.
ZERO DEFECT DEPLOYMENT STRATEGY
In order to achieve the goal of zero defects, it starts with developing a strategy on how we are going to get there. It is important for each team member to understand the strategy, so they can act on it every day. Take a look at the video below, which highlights Fluid Connectors Mexico strategy deployment event for their zero defects strategy campaign at their Toluca and Monterrey locations.
