Certifications
QUALITY, RECOGNIZED AND CERTIFIED.
MPA's commitment to quality control has been documented and certified to TS 16949 standards. This demanding standard was developed by the International Automotive Task Force (IATF) - a panel of the automotive industry’s major manufacturers, accreditation bodies, registrars and suppliers, who represent the highest quality standards achievable for an automotive parts supplier and the International Organization for Standards (ISO).
As a TS 16949-certified manufacturer, MPA meets or exceeds the highest standards in the industry. TS 16949, the successor to ISO 9000, is a required certification for supplying parts to many of the world’s leading automobile manufacturers. MPA achieved TS 16949 certification in May of 2006 and must pass a rigorous inspection by external IATF auditors every six months to maintain certification.
In addition to out quality certifications, MPA has been repeatedly recognized by Frost & Sullivan with awards for Product Innovation and Enhancing Value. Frost & Sullivan is an independent organization that searches out best practices across industries and recognizes organizations that pioneer those practices and implement them effectively. MPA was the first starter and alternator manufacturer recognized with these awards and we continue to pioneer new methods to improve our product and service quality.
QUALITY IS CONTAGIOUS.
