PACCAR Recognizes 10 PPM Quality Award Winners
March 18, 2019, Bellevue, Washington – PACCAR annually recognizes suppliers who meet or exceed PACCAR’s rigorous “10 PPM” quality standard.

This year, PACCAR recognized 337 suppliers in 26 countries on four continents for achieving this high level of quality performance.
