"AIAG helps us to understand where technology is moving, even in something as simple as labeling. Because we were involved in AIAG, Freedom saw all the new Ford labeling requirements long before they were implemented publicly. Obviously, this knowledge helped us with our own customers, because we made sure we were Ford-compliant before they knew what was expected of them."
Rick Scorey, President Freedom Technologies

"We've been with AIAG quite a while now, and although we haven't been as visible as some, we have definitely benefited from membership - especially in the areas of EDI and bar code and learning about connecting systems together. AIAG helps us fill up our body of knowledge on important issues and puts us in a better position to sift through all the information and make the right decisions."
Mike Malone, Director of Information Systems, Cascade Engineering

"If you don't put in your time and volunteer, then don't complain about the direction the industry takes in things that affect your business. It's easy to sit back and complain about what's going on in the industry, but I try not to let myself slip into that mindset. The AIAG committees I participate in are full of my colleagues, competitors and customers, but the common component is that we're all impact makers. We all firmly believe we can make a difference and instigate positive change."
Craig Williams, Director of Corporate Quality, Metaldyne

"AIAG gives me the opportunity to improve the industry instead of just sitting back and complaining about things that are not going right. The most rewarding part of my AIAG experience was the recent success of our IV&I proof-of-concept effort. We have finally found a way that will allow us to electronically connect the entire supply chain that will be affordable and effective for all involved. To know that adoption of the technology tested in this project will allow us to communicate inventory information much more quickly so that the supply chain won't have to carry excess inventory, especially at the lower tiers - that has to be the highlight for me."
