THE MILLER COMPANY ACHIEVES  TS16949:2002 REGISTRATION FOR MANUFACTURE OF SPECIALTY COPPER- BASED STRIP ALLOYS

MERIDEN, Conn. -- November 2006 -- Automotive connector & terminal stampers can now rely on THE MILLER COMPANY  for precision copper based alloy strip, produced to the requirements of ISO TS 16949:2002 Quality Management System.   Miller received the quality certificate from its auditor, TUV Rheinland of North America, Inc. earlier this year.  ISO TS 16949:2002 is the newest quality standard for the automotive market and replaces QS 9000.

SO/TS 16949 is an ISO Technical Specification. The International Automotive Task Force (IATF), which consists of an international group of vehicle manufacturers, plus national trade associations, wrote ISO/TS 16949 in conjunction with the International Organization for Standards (ISO). This specification aligns existing American (QS-9000), German (VDA6.1), French (EAQF) and Italian (AVSQ) automotive quality systems standards within the global automotive industry.

Together with ISO 9001:2000, ISO/TS 16949 specifies the quality system requirements for the design/development, production, installation and servicing of automotive related products. In addition, there are customer specific requirements that are required by individual subscribing vehicle manufacturers.  THE MILLER COMPANY is also registered to ISO 9001:2000 and its laboratory is ISO/IEC 17025:2005 accredited.  MILLER is approved to supply DELPHI and its suppliers.
