A ETQ Case Study
Kay Automotive Graphics, a 40-year leader and the world’s largest producer of OEM automotive graphics with 500 employees across four plants in the U.S., Mexico and the U.K., needed a cost-effective, user-friendly Document Control System accessible to all departments to manage approvals, processes and procedures across 200,000+ sq. ft. of manufacturing. The company required easy maintenance, ERP integration, and a solution to automate approvals and improve compliance for internal and third-party audits.
Kay implemented ETQ Reliance, which aligned with existing IT systems and ERP, allowed centralized routing and sign-offs (for purchasing, PTO, maintenance, expense reports, etc.), and delivered strong reporting, multiple views and module-based tracking for Corrective Action, Incidents, Environmental and Program Management. The result is a robust, auditable document control system that streamlines global processes, eases audits, improves traceability and supports future integration and collaboration across facilities.
