Why Nova

While Nova/TCB manufactures, stocks, and supplies many imported parts, it sets itself apart by offering the following value-added services:

  • Nova/TCB USA, Inc. is a ISO 9001:2015 certified corporation. The company has been in business at this site since 2002 with a staff representing over 100 years of experience in the Automotive and Bearing industries.
  • Nova/TCB is the importer of record on all inbound shipments from our offshore plants.
  • APQP is followed to insure process flow.
  • All products received into Nova’s warehouse is subjected to sampling plans developed in conjunction with the customer’s requirements and Nova’s quality assurance procedures.
  • An on-site inspection lab is utilized to verify incoming product. Delays from the use of off-site inspection sources are typically avoided.
  • A full-time technical staff is available to assist you with technical questions and/or concerns.
  • Nova typically warehouses 6-8 weeks of stock in its facility. This alleviates the risk of delayed shipment, which is unfortunately common when dealing with offshore entities.
  • In addition to our Tennessee location, we utilize a 3PL facility in Monterrey, Mexico to further service those companies with a presence in Mexico. As of this site update, we are in the middle stages of opening an additional facility in Guadalajara, Mexico.
  • Nova certifies its manufacturing facilities via repeated on-site visits throughout the year and contracts with its strategic partners in Asia and India as needed.
  • Level III PPAPs are typically provided for all components that Nova manufactures and provides.
  • Nova encourages its customers to visit all its manufacturing facilities where their components are being manufactured (pending a confidentiality agreement and scheduling).
  • Nova can offer KanBan shipping arrangements when required.
  • Nova actively pursues continuous improvement in their processes and capabilities to enhance customer satisfaction.
