Intel Corporation today announced the nine winners of the company’s most prestigious award for suppliers, the Supplier Continuous Quality Improvement (SCQI) award. This honor, which recognizes outstanding commitment to quality and performance excellence, distinguishes these suppliers as world-class within Intel’s greater supply chain.

Providing products and services deemed essential to Intel’s business success, the 2011 winners will be honored at a ceremony tonight in Santa Clara, Calif. “Intel’s SCQI award winners are role models for the continuous quality improvement cycle needed to deliver leading-edge products and services at sustained levels of excellence,” said William Holt, senior vice president and general manager of Intel’s Technology and Manufacturing Group. “We are pleased to recognize their exceptional accomplishments.”

“Our suppliers play a crucial role in our ability to deliver return to our investors and to delight our customers,” said Brian Krzanich, senior vice president and chief operating officer. “This year’s nine SCQI winners have distinguished themselves by demonstrating continuous improvement in innovation, affordability, agility, customer responsiveness, and environmental sustainability goals. Their results are world class.”
