Pratt & Whitney, a leading jet engine manufacturer, has awarded Rancho Cucamonga-based Schlosser Forge its Gold status for suppliers, according to Schlosser Forge general manager Aaron Johnson.
The facility, a part of the Firth Rixson company, was judged on on-time delivery, manufacturing quality, an assessment of the business’ lean practices and its customer service.
Johnson said that the jet manufacturer has told suppliers it intends to do business only with those who earn a Green or Gold supplier distinction.
