Atlas Axillia (Pvt.) Ltd swept the boards at the recent National Convention on Quality and Productivity (NCQP) Awards 2017, winning four prestigious gold awards at the illustrious event.

The convention focus on commemorating individuals and teams who practice and promote quality circles such as the Six Sigma and Kaizen concepts, which focus on a total quality management approach to a company’s production and operational procedures. The 2017 awards were conducted under three categories – Quality circles, continuous improvement and Six Sigma teams, Kaizen suggestions and a Poster competition. Winners were selected for the awards following an intensive evaluation through desk reviews and presentations by QC teams.

“Winning the Gold Awards for the Quality Circles and Kaizen categories is a tremendous achievement, and we are extremely proud of our teams who continually demonstrate the highest levels of dedication, enabling our victory at the Awards,” said Atlas Axillia CEO Muhammad Hamza.
