NOTES TO THE DATA

Chart A

See the Community section for a description of our charitable contributions.

Chart B

The Volunteer Corps was founded in 2005, and 2006 is the first year data are available. However, volunteerism and community service have long been a part of Ford's culture, and these efforts were formalized in 1997 with the creation of the 16-hour Community Service Program.

Chart C

While the general findings were consistent with previous years, 2006 saw an increase in the total number of issues identified. We believe that reflects the fact that Ford has become more skilled at identifying potentially at-risk facilities – and thus targeting them for assessments – rather than an actual decline in suppliers' performance.
