NASHVILLE, TN — Bridgestone Americas, Inc. announces that its Off-the-Road Tire Plant in Bloomington, Illinois, recently achieved the highest level in the Caterpillar Supplier Quality Excellence Process (SQEP) Certification – Platinum Level for a second consecutive year. This represents a significant milestone for Bridgestone, after the Bloomington Plant received Gold Level in the Caterpillar SQEP Certification for the previous two years.

"We are committed to delivering world-class products to our customers," said Eugene Johnston, Executive Director, Original Equipment Manufacturers Global Support, Bridgestone Americas. "This recognition is a reflection of our commitment and a testament to our dedicated employees in our Bloomington Plant, Americas Technical Center, Customer Support and Logistics and Supply Chain Management, all of whom deliver quality and innovation through their work in product, engineering and manufacturing performance, to customers like Caterpillar."

The SQEP Certification demonstrates the strong values and ethical principles of Bridgestone in conducting business, as well as the company's commitment to collaborate with Caterpillar to implement a culture for "zero-defects" across the supply chain. Recognition levels of Bronze, Silver, Gold and Platinum, reflected in order of increasing difficulty, distinguish outstanding supplier quality performance.

Caterpillar's SQEP Certification was created to recognize a supplier's dedication to providing superior quality, and only is awarded to suppliers who demonstrate world-class performance on an ongoing basis. Each year, suppliers are evaluated with increasingly strict criteria for distinguishing outstanding supplier quality, exceptional service and shipping performance.
