ZERO DEFECTS
Other manufactures make claims about PPM quality levels as if they were proud of them. RCD believes that one defect is one too many. Whether we ship 10 or 10 million pieces, every single part should conform to spec.

Our 'ABZED'^TM (Absolute Zero Defect) Continuous improvement Program is resulting in ever improved quality levels, via emphasis on total quality, just-in-time delivery, total preventive maintenance, employee involvement, and simplicity. At RCD, "zero defects" isn't a slogan, it's a state of mind.
Over the past dozen years, RCD was the only major U.S. resistor manufacturer to achieve a flawless track record according to Government-Industry (GIDEP) records. To learn more and see how 7 other manufacturers fares, click here to view the article.
