Successful Farming's Editorial Guidelines Published on December 15, 2023 Close Ag Express Electronics announced the establishment of Integrated Circuit Works, a dedicated division focused on wire harness manufacturing, electronics assembly, and printed circuit board manufacturing. The division, formerly Alliance Group Technologies, in Warren, Indiana, was awarded ISO 9001:2015 by National Quality Assurance (NQA) in August 2023. Ag Express has produced harnesses for the agricultural sector for more than 30 years. Now, it is positioned to expand its services to a broader audience, including large Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs). ISO 9001:2015 will help the company engage in prototyping and full-scale production of any quantities while adhering to globally recognized standards for quality management. “The introduction of our ISO 9001:2015 dedicated manufacturing division is a testament to our unwavering commitment to delivering the highest quality manufacturing services,” says Eric Randolph, chief operating officer. “Today, we are focused on wire harness manufacturing and box builds, but in the very near future, the division will expand to feature repair services and printed circuit board manufacturing in an ISO 9001:2015 environment.” “Ag Express has always been at the forefront of innovation in the agricultural industry. Our new Integrated Circuit Works division is a natural progression that empowers the company to contribute meaningfully to the success of our clients,” says Jim Steinke, Chief Growth Officer. “Achieving this certification reflects the world-class manufacturing culture nurtured at Ag Express and the overall commitment to quality and reliability that runs deep in our company’s DNA. As the Integrated Circuit Works division scales, we expect to expand into other industries such as construction, public works, forestry, and more.” ISO 9001:2015 is the world’s most widely recognized Quality Management Standard (QMS), developed and published by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). It is the most widely used QMS standard in the world and provides a framework and set of principles that ensure a commonsense approach to the management of an organization to consistently satisfy customers and other stakeholders. Achievement of ISO 9001:2015 was facilitated through NQA, a leading global independently accredited certification body, providing assessments (audits) of organizations to various management system standards since 1988.
