Nominated by: ThermoFusion, Inc.
Although with ThermoFusion for less than a year, Katie Bastine is using her nine years of industry experience to modernize and streamline the quality system, leading the company to a complete ISO9001, AS9001 and Nadcap recertifications, and adding new Nadcap certified processes.
Specifically, Katie brought all TUS and SAT work in-house, including procuring the equipment, training the operators, and validating the work. She then prepared herself and the company for a series of audits, which ThermoFusion passed with only two major findings. During that process, Katie more than doubled the Nadcap certified processes in which ThermoFusion had been previously certified.
Katie’s dedication to her job has resulted in greater opportunity for ThermoFusion and customers and allows the company to remain one of the top-quality heat treating shops in the Western U.S.
