Quality Is The Cornerstone Of Every Douglas Battery .

At Douglas Battery Manufacturing Company, quality is not the responsibility of a single department. We have empowered all of our employees with quality. We strive for continual improvement; it is a way of life. This practice is evident through our commitment to design, manufacture, and deliver the best battery to our customers.

Quality is vital to every aspect of our operation, and every employee is aware of his/her responsibility to producing a quality product. It starts in our product planning process where a multi-disciplinary group provides input. This group often includes our customers and our suppliers. The quality concept is communicated when the product is released into the manufacturing process. Within the process, we have numerous automatic testers and inspections. After passing final inspections, the product is shipped and delivered to our customers in the most efficient means possible.

Our product planning process is based upon an Advanced Product Quality Planning Process (APQP),  This process includes inputs from multi-disciplinary groups involving customers and suppliers.  Information obtained from previous designs applied to Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA) for the design and process are used to eliminate non-conformities before they happen.  Our products incorporate all fit for use attributes.  Extensive field and application research and benchmarking assures the battery will be designed, tooled and manufactured to do the job intended.  We genuinely engineer and manufacture the best product available.
