Forma Automotive CEO Rosa Santana Celebrates New
Opportunities in the Alamo City
Rosa Santana, founder and CEO
of Integrated Human Capital, has
built a solid reputation in the
staffing industry. Winner of
countless awards and accolades,
Santana could easily look back at
all of her accomplishments and
rest on hardearned laurels. As
one who thrives on new
challenges and opportunities,
however, Santana has created a
new company called Forma
Automotive, a Tier I supplier to
Toyota — but not as a supplier of
staffing services.
The relationship began when IHC provided staffing services to many Toyota suppliers, as the
carmaker was building a facility in San Antonio. Santana and IHC were known by Toyota
associates at many different levels.
"That [familiarity] got us to the point where they approached me and offered me this Forma
opportunity. They said, ‘We want to offer you an opportunity as a Tier I supplier for something
that’s not related to staffing. It’s not your core business,’” Santana recalled, adding, "I am
always looking at diversification.”
Forma Automotive will be purchasing all of the parts necessary to assemble the truck beds for
Tacoma trucks and selling fully assembled beds to Toyota. Jim Holloway, general manager,
supplier relations, diversity, risk management & systems, purchasing, Toyota Engineering and
Manufacturing North America Inc., is enthusiastic about working with Santana and her new
company.
