FUJIFILM Electronic Materials has been recognized as one of 19 companies receiving Intel Corporation’s Preferred Quality Supplier (PQS) award for their performance in 2014. This supplier has demonstrated industry-leading commitment across all critical focus areas on which they are measured: quality, cost, availability, technology, customer service, labor and ethics systems and environmental sustainability. FUJIFILM Electronic Materials is recognized for their significant contributions providing Intel with process and formulated chemicals, developers, slurry, precursors and resist, deemed essential to Intel’s success.

“We are delighted to again receive the prestigious PQS award,” said Brian O’Donnelly, President and CEO, FUJIFILM Electronic Materials U.S.A., Inc. “Fujifilm continues to strengthen our relationship with Intel across all areas of our business, and we look forward to working together to meet their current needs and future technology challenges.”

“Intel congratulates FUJIFILM Electronic Materials for winning the prestigious PQS award in recognition of their continued commitment to providing high quality products in support of Intel’s roadmap in areas of thin film precursors, lithography, wet chemicals and slurries. Fujifilm has provided strong support across the entire portfolio of products with continuing emphasis on quality, availability and technical performance. Intel looks forward to continuing this valuable partnership in 2015,” said Tim Hendry, VP Fab Materials.

The PQS award is part of Intel’s Supplier Continuous Quality Improvement (SCQI) program 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, technology, environmental, social and governance goals. Suppliers must also achieve 80 percent or greater on a challenging improvement plan and demonstrate solid quality and business systems.

A celebration to honor PQS award winners was held in Santa Clara, California, themed “Innovating to Deliver Smart and Connected Devices,” which illustrates the contributions this supplier has made in 2014. In addition, there was an announcement on Intel’s website at http://intel.com.
