DEK Receives Intel’s Supplier Continuous Quality Improvement Award

DEK International GmbH announced it has been recognized as one of 10 suppliers to receive Intel Corporation’s prestigious Supplier Continuous Quality Improvement (SCQI) award. The award recognizes extraordinary commitment to quality and exceptional performance to Intel’s goals and is the company’s highest honor for its suppliers. In 2009 DEK provided solder paste and flux printing equipment deemed vital to Intel’s success.

"DEK’s inclusion in Intel’s 2009 Supplier Continuous Quality Improvement award program, along with our previous award wins, further underscores our ‘expect more’ philosophy and alignment with Intel’s market strategy,” comments Michael Brianda, President, DEK International. "Particularly given the challenges of the past year, DEK’s supply chain agility and continuous investment in product development and service proved keys to success – not just to weather the financial impact of 2009, but to ensure sustainable initiatives going forward.”

"Congratulations to DEK for their second SCQI award and their sixth Intel quality award. As we continue to raise the bar, DEK has met and exceeded our expectations by delivering equipment early and meeting changing and demanding requirements. DEK has worked closely with Intel by supporting numerous value added programs and initiatives which have resulted in gains for both companies,” says Ron Rinfret, Assembly Capital Equipment Development Director, Intel.
