Business Wire
Intel Corporation today announced that 19 companies will receive
the 2014 Intel Preferred Quality Supplier (PQS) award that
recognizes commitment to performance excellence and continuous
improvement. These companies achieve PQS status by demonstrating
industry-leading commitment across all key performance focus areas:
quality, cost, availability, technology, customer service, labor
and ethics systems, and environmental sustainability.
In addition to the PQS award, Intel recognized two suppliers
with the Supplier Achievement Award, which is a focused recognition
for extraordinary accomplishments in one or more key performance
areas. This year’s winners were acknowledged for exceptional
results delivering leading-edge technology solutions and excellence
in product availability to meet Intel’s evolving needs as an
industry leader. The 2014 PQS and Achievement winners will be
honored at a ceremony tonight in Santa Clara, California.
“Intel is excited to acknowledge our Preferred Quality Suppliers
for their outstanding performance in 2014 to deliver
industry-leading technology with world-class cost, velocity and
sustainability,” said Robert Bruck, vice president and general
manager of Global Supply Management at Intel. “The innovation
and cooperation of these suppliers remains one of the crucial
factors in enabling Intel to extend our industry-leading silicon,
packaging and test technologies, to enhance value to our
customers.”
“2014 was a really pivotal year when our efforts to ramp new
technologies and innovative products culminated in achieving
positive momentum across all product categories,” added Jacklyn
Sturm, vice president, Technology and Manufacturing Group and
general manager of Global Supply Management at Intel. “ We
could not have done this without Intel’s Preferred Quality Supplier
Award winners working alongside us, tackling complex technical and
supply chain challenges with market speed, with innovative
solutions and sometimes, just exceptionally hard, flawless
execution. Thank you for your unfaltering support toward your
customer’s success.”
The PQS award is part of Intel’s Supplier Continuous Quality
Improvement (SCQI) program that encourages suppliers to innovate
and continually improve. To qualify for PQS status, suppliers must
exceed high expectations and uncompromising performance goals while
scoring at least 80 percent on an integrated report card that
assesses performance throughout the year. Suppliers must also
achieve 80 percent or greater on a challenging continuous
improvement plan and demonstrate solid quality and business
systems.
