Intel Corporation today announced the 19 companies to receive

that work with Intel by exceeding high expectations and tough
performance goals while demonstrating industry-leading commitment
to quality.
In addition to the PQS award, Intel recognized two suppliers
with the Achievement Award for their extraordinary accomplishments
in the areas of velocity, customer orientation and reduced cycle
time. The 2011 PQS and Achievement winners will be honored at a
ceremony tonight in Santa Clara, Calif.
“This year’s Intel Preferred Quality Supplier award winners have
truly distinguished themselves by driving and executing to
world-class supply chain performance in execution, innovation and
quality,” said Jaclyn A. Sturm, vice president, Technology and
Manufacturing Group and general manager of Global Sourcing and
Procurement. “2011 was a year that tested all aspects of the supply
chain from core challenges of business continuity and affordability
to the need for continuous innovation, velocity improvements and
growing expectations of sustainability. These winners distinguished
themselves not only in their ability to overcome, but their ability
to excel in the midst of these challenges.”
“Intel’s 2011 Preferred Quality Suppliers have excelled across
an extremely demanding set of expectations, and have distinguished

Manufacturing Engineering. “These suppliers have made a substantial
contribution to Intel’s success through their commitment to quality
in support of Intel’s industry-leading silicon, packaging and test
technologies.”
