The Deming Prize Committee announced this year’s winners on October 7. GC America Inc. (GCA) receives the prestigious Deming Prize. GCA is the fourth company to receive this prize in the US.

The Deming Prize is awarded to GCA because it has significantly improved sales, shares the corporate culture based on the GC’s corporate philosophy SEMUI, promotes TQM (Total Quality Management) through the concerted and united efforts of GCA Associates with diverse cultural backgrounds and languages, and enhances quality strength and organizational capabilities to flexibly cope with customer needs and a rapidly changing market environment.
