HOME RUN FOR MOTT CORPORATION
Re-certification and Upgrade to
ISO 9001-2000 Standard

FARMINGTON, CT, [May 22, 2003] – Mott Corporation has successfully completed their triennial re-certification audit and simultaneous upgrade to the ISO 9001-2000 Standard. In addition to stepping up to the plate of new ISO requirements, Mott hit a home run by passing the audit with zero non-conformity notes, zero improvement notes, and zero negative written observations.

In the closing meeting of the audit, the Lloyd's Register Quality Assurance auditor expressed that he had been impressed with the continuous improvement achieved in Mott's Quality Management System. He especially noted the strength on the Company's Strategic and Tactical Plans which direct Mott's business goals and objectives.

In organizing the initial effort to meet the new standard, Mott utilized the assistance of Connstep (A Resource Center for Connecticut Manufacturer) and a group of Mott employees including Internal Auditors, Department Champions, and Senior Management. Through a series of development meetings and group discussions, Mott successfully planned and implemented the necessary requirements in a streamlined fashion. Focus on continuous improvement was not only key during the audit preparation, but continues to play a central role in all aspects of the business.
