Company History

As a statistician working in process control and improvement during the Cold War, Charles Holland, PhD, began developing the MVT^® Process in order to solve a nuclear weapons manufacturing crisis at Union Carbide's Nuclear Weapons Manufacturing Division in Oak Ridge, Tennessee. Holland eventually began using the MVT Process more extensively in the production and research development of nuclear weapons, as well as in training effectiveness, maintenance, product certification, and laboratory service. His philosophy focused on harvesting the minds and creativity of the workforce in order to develop innovative ideas to improve the organization.

In 1982, Holland founded QualPro, Inc. Holland began to build his business by traveling around the country to offer training seminars, teaching the fundamentals of the MVT Process. As QualPro developed into a consulting firm with an ever-growing client base, those clients recorded more and more process improvement successes. QualPro initially worked in manufacturing operations but soon branched out to service, logistics, transportation, and other industries.

Over the last two decades, QualPro consultants have assisted clients in implementing the MVT Process at over 1,000 companies, including many of the Fortune 500. Many clients have improved business results directly linked to the MVT Process valued in the hundreds of millions of dollars. QualPro conducts seminars on the MVT Process throughout the United States, and its work has been profiled in most major business publications.
