LISLE, Ill. — Navistar has named Bill Osborne its senior vice-president of global quality.

Osborne previously oversaw Navistar’s specialty business, including Navistar RV which was recently sold.

Prior to that, he spent 20 years with Ford Motor Company, serving in a number of senior level positions.

“Bill played an important role in helping transform Ford into a quality leader in the automotive industry,” said Eric Tech, Navistar president of global truck and engine. “I have every confidence that he will be able to use the same skills and rigor he demonstrated at Ford to oversee Navistar’s quality transformation and improving customer satisfaction.”

Osborne will report to Tech and will head up quality and reliability for all Navistar’s products worldwide, the company announced.

“We have come a long way in quality with our new Class 8 products,” Osborne said. “I am confident we are investing in the right technologies and capabilities across our enterprise to ultimately be the quality leader in our industry.”
