WORLD: Soundcraft Studer has promoted former UK R&D manager Alan Wright to the role of quality and continuous improvement manager.
In his new role Mr Wright will report directly to Andy Trott, vice president and general manager of Harman’s mixing, microphones and headphones business unit. Mr Wright joined Harman in 1995 with BSS Audio and later moved to Soundcraft.
‘We pride ourselves on the levels of quality and ingenuity across our businesses but we also have a mantra of continuously improving everything we do, however large or small that improvement might be,’ explained Mr Trott. ‘It is Alan’s role to drive the business on all fronts of quality, ISO, process improvements and green initiatives. We consider these to be business imperatives, hence why this function reports directly to me.’
Speaking of his new role, Mr Wright added: ‘During the past few years running Engineering Services, and latterly R&D here, we have made huge strides in production efficiencies, speed of new product introduction and quality levels. We regard quality, ISO, and GreenEdge as absolute brand imperatives and it’s my job to ensure we continuously improve in every area of the business.’
