Improvement (SCQI) program that encourages suppliers to strive for excellence
and continuous improvement. To qualify for PQS status, suppliers must score 80%
on a report card that assesses performance and ability to meet cost, quality,
availability, delivery, technology, and customer satisfaction goals. Suppliers
must also achieve 80% or higher on a challenging improvement plan and
demonstrate solid quality and business systems. Furthermore, the 2009 awardees
demonstrated compliance to the Electronic Industry Citizenship Coalition Code
of Conduct and Intel’s Environmental Social Governance Program.
Celebrations to honor the PQS award winners will be held in
