Mahr Inc. today announced that Lara Rapport has joined the company as quality manager to support its continued growth and ongoing commitment to excellence. In her new role, Rapport will focus on improving processes through customer feedback, ensuring ISO compliance, management of the ISO auditing system and more.
“The name Mahr is synonymous with quality and expertise. For example, Mahr is able to offer the best calibration for high precision applications,” said Rapport. “The Mahr precision measurement center is on par with the NIST lab. Built down to the bedrock so that movement and foundation variables are eliminated, our calibration is extremely precise. I’m very proud to be able to say that I work somewhere that can achieve this level of precision.”
Lara is a certified ISO 9001:2015 lead auditor with more than 20 years of experience in manufacturing and quality management. She has expertise in ISO 9000, lean manufacturing, facility energy management, program management and the quality disciplines of: Six Sigma, FMEA, PPAP, auditing and CAPA problem solving. Lara has a BS in Industrial Engineering from Northeastern University and an MBA in Global Business from Northeastern University as well.
In addition, to further support the company’s growth and ensure the highest manufacturing quality standards, Mahr has also recently promoted two employees. Anthony Clang, who joined the organization in 2003, has been promoted to the position of laboratory technical manager and will now oversee both of Mahr’s calibration labs. Clang’s previous work on Mahr’s ISO17025 NVLAP accreditation was vital to the organization’s efforts. Dave Perron, who has 18 years of industry experience, has been promoted to manufacturing engineering supervisor and will now be responsible for leading that department.
Mahr is a global, family-owned business that has sustained five generations and continues to innovate, grow and develop. The company has maintained this level of development through ongoing commitment by its management to employee engagement and customer success.
