Testimonials
Following are the comments from our most recent 2014 supplier audit from one of our treasured new major customers. We are honored to share this with you:
“GENERAL COMMENTS ABOUT THE SUPPLIER AND QUALITY SYSTEM:
This is one of the most organized, controlled and forward thinking suppliers I have audited. Their list of long term customers include: AAR, Boeing, Fokker, Goodrich, Gulfstream, General Dynamics, Lockheed Martin, LMI Aerospace, Nordam, Piper Aircraft, Sikorsky, Spirit AeroSystems and the Triumph Group. They have received dozens of awards from all customers as being excellent suppliers with a combined Supplier Rating of 99%+.
AFG is innovative and imaginative when it comes to “How can we do it better”.
Very impressive.
STRONG POINTS:
Epicor software controlled documentation system is impressive. Access to any reference material, specifications, requirements, PO’s, Certifications, etc. is available to every employee within two clicks of the mouse. AFG has infallible process controls. Purchase Order and Vendor Instruction requirements are automatically flowed to all documentation including sub-tier PO requirements, Work Orders, approved supplier(s) lists and so on.
Work Orders (Travelers) have safety icons illustrating required PPE’s for each particular operation. “
“AFOG has been one of the best suppliers I’ve dealt with & you’ll be seeing more soon. Thanks again.”
“As I’m sure you have read in a recent letter sent to you, we have had a recent reorganization. We (buyers) are moving to regional groups and my manager is over the West Coast. I will now be handling suppliers in only California. Please extend a big ‘Thank You’ from me to all at AFOG who have supported Lockheed Martin while I have been your buyer!”
“I believe I had the best supplier of all the suppliers here. Everyone was always talking about AFOG! I could hear the company name whispered throughout various management talks (very positive). I really miss working with you guys! Take care and I know you will keep doing a great job supporting Lockheed Martin!”
“AFG has been a valued part of the the Goodrich Supply Chain for the past seven years. They have proven to be an excellent supplier and always strive to exceed customer expectations.”
“I just had to tell you that Bob has been outstanding to work with! I have worked in procurement for over 7 years in various capacities and by far I have truly enjoyed working with him! We have worked through a number of issues ranging from delinquencies to shortages on parts, including material and tooling issues. Each time Bob has been very supportive and gone the extra mile to do what he could to support Aerospace Fabrication of Georgia’s commitment to Lockheed Martin Aeronautics.”
“In over the year that I have worked with him he has been shown a professionalism and pride in his job and his duties and has been consistent. I just had to tell you that Bob Hurst is a great team player and a great asset to your company!”
“I was very impressed with the AFG Heat Treat Facility and the work you have done to date. You obviously have a thorough understanding of our requirements and a sincere desire to provide us with quality processing. As far as technical capabilities are concerned, AFG certainly satisfies the requirements.”
“Thank you for opening your heat treat facility during the holiday season. It’s refreshing to find a processor who understands and respects the meaning of A.O.G.”
“You’re one of my fav shops, on capability and technically competent all around.”
