Munters receives Intel’s preferred quality supplier award

Munters was named a recipient of Intel Corporation’s 2007 Preferred Quality Supplier (PQS) award for outstanding performance in providing products and services deemed essential to Intel’s success.

The company is awarded for its efforts supplying Intel with VOC abatement equipment. Munters Corporation and 34 additional PQS award winners will be honored at a celebration in Burlingame, California on March 18.

“Munters is pleased to accept Intel’s PQS award for the fourth time,” said Kevin Orff, president, Munters Zeol Division. “We appreciate Intel’s recognition of our continuous dedication to safety and quality improvement. With our commitment to improving customer satisfaction, we look forward to supplying advances in our energy efficient products to help Intel achieve their environmental goals.”

“We are proud to present Munters with the Preferred Quality Supplier Award,” said Todd Brady, Corporate Environmental manager, Intel Corporation. “The equipment they provide is critical to maintaining Intel’s commitment to environmental excellence. Munters has consistently demonstrated their dedication to reliability, quality, affordability, customer satisfaction and continuous improvement, making them a highly valued supplier to Intel.”

The PQS awards are part of Intel’s Supplier Continuous Quality Improvement (SCQI) process 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, delivery, technology and responsiveness goals. Suppliers must also manage and deliver on a challenging improvement plan and a quality systems assessment.
