APQP4Wind helped align internal qualifications during the merger

Jupiter Bach’s journey with APQP4Wind began in 2018 with the aim of using their resources more effectively and following the same procedure, while the main part of the automation started in 2019. Global Director BPM & QHSE, Lone Stubberup states:

“
We have been using APQP for a long time, and with the merger in 2017 between Jupiter Group and BACH Composite Industry, it became clear that we wanted to implement APQP4Wind to strengthen our internal system and align qualifications.
Lone Stubberup, Global Director BPM & QHSE

In the beginning, Jupiter Bach had 10 of their core people from Denmark and China undergo APQP4Wind Specialist and Management Awareness Training conducted by approved APQP4Wind Training Providers.

Now, they have more than 100 trained in APQP4Wind on various levels of the company after having implemented internal training across their global locations to tailor the concept to their specific needs.
