FONTANA LUIGI AND CAT, TRADITION OF QUALITY

the Silver Certification for Caterpillar’s “Supplier Quality Excellence Program” with the creation of dedicated polos, given the great enthusiasm and pride of the team. Salvatore De Giorgi, CEO EMEA of Fontana Gruppo, explains that to guarantee high-quality standards, Cat carries out monitoring of suppliers’ performance based on key factors: quality, logistics, and planning. On all these aspects – continues De Giorgi – Fontana Luigi has been able to give compelling answers over a whole year, with constant checks and Group Management on maintaining standards. The Fontana Luigi team faces a continuous challenge because the complexity of the customer’s management is considerable. “Cat today demands compliance with procedures and standards at the level of the automotive market while remaining within the construction and agriculture sectors, which correspond to a wide variety of product types, with small lots.”
