Ingersoll Rand is committed to producing quality, reliable and cost effective products that are shipped on time, provide customer value, and conform to national and international requirements. Ingersoll Rand and its Customers demand and expect defect free products and services and we recognize the importance of its Suppliers in providing Ingersoll Rand with quality parts and raw materials on time so that those Customer's expectations can be met. The Global Supplier Quality Manual provides guidelines for Ingersoll Rand Suppliers to meet or exceed in order to supply direct parts, raw materials, service parts and sourced products purchased by Ingersoll Rand. It is critical that Suppliers become fully knowledgeable of the Global Supplier Quality Manual content so that they understand how, when, and why submissions and documentation are provided to IR. We ask that the appropriate managers within your organization review the manual. If you have any questions contact the IR Souring or Supplier Quality Departments.
