The awards ceremony was held recently at the supplier conference
in Erlangen, Germany where the top 75 suppliers of Siemens
Healthineers worldwide were invited to attend. There were
five suppliers recognized, including an overall supplier of the
year. Kimball Electronics was recognized with the 2017
Supplier Award for Competitiveness and Collaboration. This
distinction is bestowed to a supplier of Siemens Healthineers that
has demonstrated excellence in collaboration and competitiveness
aiding the Siemens Healthineers team.
Presenting the award, David Mount, Chief Procurement Officer,
Point of Care, Siemens Healthineers explained, “Kimball put forth a
lot of extra effort to help with a Siemens device that had gone on
back-order during a re-design; things such as training additional
resources, scheduling additional shifts, and collaborating around
the clock. This enabled Siemens to alleviate the backlog
within a three-month period, produce additional new supply of the
new design, and mitigate and rebuild safety stock.”
Headquartered in Jasper, Indiana, Kimball Electronics operates
nine manufacturing facilities in six countries and was selected
based on its “extra effort and performance excellence,”
“outstanding communication” and “successful collaboration with
change and transition requests and backlog issues from the Siemens
team.”
“On behalf of our more than 4,800 employees worldwide, I would
like to say thank you to Siemens for recognizing Kimball
Electronics with this very special award,” says Don Charron,
Kimball Electronics Chairman and CEO. “This is another great
story and a great example of our commitment to service
excellence!”
