Considering the thousands of readers of Quality magazine, the Quality Leadership 100 showcases the work of just a fraction of the quality professionals in this country. This annual ranking highlights plants across the United States for their dedication to quality. This year the top five companies were Honeywell Aerospace, Medtronic, InserTech, Winona PVD and SAPA Extrusions.
The companies provide aircraft engines, automotive parts, medical technology, aluminum extrusions, and chrome coatings. No matter what these companies make, they are concerned with quality in their manufacturing process. They are dedicated to quality, training and continuous improvement.
