JIM FOSTER WAS PROMOTED TO QUALITY ASSURANCE MANAGER IN NOVEMBER OF 1998. Formerly, Jim was a Production Engineer for General Bearing. With his GBC experience and prior quality experience, QA management was a logical progression for Jim.

Prior to joining GBC, Jim managed the Quality Control and Engineering division for an automotive ball bearing manufacturer. Among his accomplishments, was the successful implementation of ISO-9002 Quality Standards. Jim has a Bachelor of Arts in Product Design as well as an Associates in Applied Science.
