 ‘World First’ quality
certification for Holden Engine Operations |
Holden Engine Operations has been
awarded the coveted QS 9000 third edition quality accreditation. It is the first General
Motors (GM) powertrain group in the world to qualify for this globally recognised
standard.
Australia’s principal exporter of manufactured goods, Holden Engine Operations (HEO)
is based at Fishermens Bend, Victoria. It combines engine assembly and testing, foundry
casting facilities and precision manufacture of key engine components. The Family II range
of four cylinder engines produced by HEO is exported to markets in Asia, America and
Europe, while its six and eight cylinder engines power the best-selling Holden Commodore
and Calais model range and export models Chevrolet Lumina and Omega.
Executive in charge of HEO, Vic Beesley, said his 2,600-strong employee team should be
congratulated for its continuing commitment to achieving world class quality outcomes.
"The fact that we are the first GM powertrain operation to receive QS 9000 third
edition certification certainly validates our international standing," said Mr
Beesley."This recognises the standard of excellence we continually strive to
attain - and shows that Holden is very well equipped to play an increasingly significant
role in the global industry."
