Now COVID-19 is being well controlled in China, our life and business are getting normal. JMC is also resuming production. Facing the depressing market of auto industry, extending sales market and improving sales volume are the significant measures for JMC’s sustainable development.
Middle East is an important region for JMC export. JMC and Ford branded vehicles enjoyed great popularity in Middle East with its outstanding performance and quality. During the special period of COVID-19 spreading worldwide, the demand for light buses that can be modified is increasing in Middle East. JMC quickly enter Middle East market with its “Star Model”, New Ford Transit V362. However, the certification from Gulf Standardization Organization (GSO) is required for export to Middle East.
As stipulated by GSO certification system, V362 can get the special test in Chinese Automotive Technology & Research Center in Tianjin. The test results are recognized by GSO with GSO officials on site. But during this special time, it’s improper to have foreigners coming to China. In order to obtain the permission for export, and through the great efforts made by Ford and JMC team, GSO agreed to witness the whole test process by remote online video.
It’s the first time to have online video witnessing the test in auto industry. JMC Program Team overcame difficulties and quickly made all preparation for the online video test. As requested, V362 must go through the three tests, including front attack, rear attack and SLD pressing. In the middle of April, the tests were taken in Tianjin as planned. All test results passed and even exceeded GSO requirements. The outstanding performance, the high quality of JMC-made and the efficient work of the program team made this international certification a great success. New Ford Transit V362 produced in JMC is to be exported to Middle East.
During the pandemic period, JMC responded in the first place and became the key auto manufacturer of important medical materials for pandemic fighting recognized by Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. JMC negative pressure ambulances were the first batch delivered to Wuhan, which made outstanding contribution to the pandemic fighting nationwide. JMC ambulances were also honored as “Auto No.1 for Pandemic Fighting”. Now JMC continues the spirit and made relentless efforts to achieve the annual operation targets.
