John Bodine, Bodine Electric’s President and CEO says: “Our goal has always been to do things right the first time, conform to all known requirements, and provide on-time, defect free products. We had most of the pieces in place and our history has shown that we’ve accomplished that goal in the past. However, in today’s world we need to continuously evaluate our systems and going through the certification process has really helped us focus our management capabilities in this area.”
