RTD’s Quality Management System is
AS9100 and ISO9001 certified. This
system is designed to facilitate the highest quality with a zero-defect
philosophy, enhance customer satisfaction, and promote continuous
improvement initiatives in the areas of training, design control,
contract review, purchasing, receiving, production, inspection, test,
delivery, and post delivery activities. Using Material Resource Planning
Software as well as custom, RTD plans, tracks, and executes all aspects
of the design, procurement, and production process to ensure full
traceability for all of RTD’s delivered products.
But RTD’s philosophy has always been that a true quality product will
never come from just an outstanding quality, design and manufacturing
process. True quality products must have quality designed into them from
their inception. RTD’s expert knowledge and know-how with years of
engineering and field experience in a variety of software, electrical,
mechanical, system integrating, and quality disciplines provides the
necessary resources to not only follow a project from start to
integration, but to follow it through its
entire life cycle.
RTD’s high-performance products are Designed and Manufactured in the USA
at our facilities in State College, PA. With cutting-edge design and
testing tools, state-of-the-art precision manufacturing, inspection, and
testing equipment, RTD proves that superior products can be, and still
are produced here in America.
