TTI, Inc., the world’s leading authorized specialty distributor of interconnect, passive, and electromechanical (IP&E) components, established the TTI Supplier Excellence Program in 1995 to foster continuous improvement in supplier and distributor performance. The program annually recognizes global suppliers that consistently exhibit excellence in terms of quality, operations, business systems, and support.
“The awards are more than just a trophy,” said Felix Corbett, Supplier Marketing Director at TTI Europe. “They signify that suppliers have made great contributions to the way TTI’s business is run and to the level of performance we are able to provide to our customers. The program is globally consistent in all TTI regions. We closely monitor and track certain business-critical criteria and evaluate the specifics of our business with all our suppliers throughout the year.”
The Silver 2024 TTI Europe Supplier Excellence Award celebrates KYOCERA AVX for its faithful fulfillment of several key quality performance metrics designed to elevate supplier and distributor performance and achieve maximum customer satisfaction throughout Europe. These metrics include on-time delivery, receiving quality, customer-reported quality, administrative quality, ease of doing business, and both the quality and efficacy of field employee and managerial support.
“We are both proud and deeply honored to have earned our tenth TTI Europe Supplier Excellence Award,” said Alex Schenkel, Senior Vice President of Global Sales at KYOCERA AVX. “Earning just one of these prestigious awards is a significant achievement given the breadth and consistency of excellence that they recognize. So, the fact that we’ve now earned a total of 10 TTI Supplier Excellence Awards in Europe, six in Asia, and five in the Americas is a real testament to our team’s commitment to operational excellence, outstanding quality, and superior service, as well as to our longstanding partnership with TTI.”
