partnership with Amkor in the area of new packaging technology in
2015,” said Armin Sarstedt, Vice President of Technology and
Manufacturing Group and Director of Intel’s Silicon Foundry and
OSAT Management.
The PQS award is part of Intel’s Supplier Continuous Quality
Improvement (SCQI) program that encourages suppliers to strive for
excellence and continuous improvement. To qualify for PQS status,
suppliers must score 80 percent on a report card that assesses
performance and ability to meet cost, quality, availability,
technology, environmental, social and governance goals. Suppliers
must also achieve 80 percent or greater on a challenging
improvement plan and demonstrate solid quality and business
systems. Additional information about the SCQI program is available

A celebration to honor PQS award winners was held in Santa
