Maruti Centre for Excellence
  Move to upgrade Suppliers to world class levels
 
  In collaboration with our suppliers we have set up Maruti Centre for Excellence (MACE) to provide consultancy and training support to our suppliers and sales network to enable them to achieve world-class standards in Quality, Cost, Service and Technology Orientation.

MACE works closely with our partners to implement world class practices like TQM, TPM and TOPS (Team Oriented Problem Solving techniques).

In addition, the Centre also trains Maruti employees in Quality related issues.

Many of our dealerships and suppliers have an ISO 9000 certification. A few leading suppliers have also implemented TPM, TQM and Lean Management practices with the help of reputed international consultants. But many other Suppliers have a handicap by way of inadequate facilities, lack of exposure and absence of a benchmark in India. The Centre will help these units to upgrade.
   
Transferring our best practices
  Challenge 50 helped us improve our productivity. The next challenge was to bring cost effectiveness at our vendor's end also so that his operations are as efficient as ours.
   
MACE has helped us in this mission.
  Component development capabilities of the suppliers have been upgraded through MACE and are helping us develop new models with shorter lead-time and enabling company to innovate successfully in new tools and fixtures with local expertise.
