Celestica recognises SCA Packaging with TCOO Supplier Award

December 12th, 2007 - SCA Packaging has been awarded a Total Cost of Ownership (TCOOTM) Supplier Award from Celestica, a global provider of innovative electronics manufacturing services (EMS). This award recognises suppliers that provide the best TCOO performance to Celestica and are committed to helping Celestica meet its customers’ needs.

"SCA Packaging Europe is very proud to be recognised by Celestica,” said Bori Medveczky, Sales & Marketing Director of SCA Packaging Hungary, Romania and Slovakia. “We have worked closely with Celestica in its expansion in Eastern Europe. From the very beginning we understood their demand and supplied Celestica with full service packaging. We dedicated what we call a ‘Service Center’ and assigned an In-Plant Coordinator to this business, who was responsible for managing the whole packaging ordering process on site at Celestica.”

This marks the first year of Celestica’s TCOO Supplier Awards program. The new program aligns with Celestica's Ring strategy which focuses on shortening lead times through enhanced supplier proximity, as well as its TCOO supply chain strategy which helps customers deliver high-quality products to market quickly and at the lowest total cost. Celestica’s TCOO system is designed to calculate the true cost to produce, deliver and support products and services beyond the supplier invoice price. As such, it values the following supplier attributes: quality, delivery, technology, service, pricing and flexibility.

"Congratulations to SCA Packaging for being recognised with a 2006 TCOO Supplier Award,” said John Boucher, Chief Supply Chain and Procurement Officer, Celestica. “I sincerely thank SCA Packaging for supporting our supply chain strategy to provide customers with the flexibility they need to overcome any challenge and to respond quickly to changes in end-market demand.”
