Turbine Support Services Inc. selected for elite supplier initiative

Turbine Support Services Inc. was recently identified by the Procurement and Quality Departments within Global Service Partners to participate in the UTC Supplier Gold initiative.

UTC Supplier Gold is a method for suppliers to achieve high delivery and quality performance levels through the utilization of lean processes and provides recognition for significant continuous improvement efforts.

Supplier Gold requires that a company is actively utilizing lean tools, such as Standard Work, Total Productive Maintenance, Process Certification and Root Cause and Corrective Action methodologies.

Performance excellence is recognized for the previous twelve months and is determined through Supplier Excellence Criteria (Quality and Delivery), Market Feedback analysis and Lean Assessment, as defined in the Gold Standard matrix.

Upon meeting or exceeding the Supplier Gold Standards criteria, an on-site validation visit by the Supplier Gold Team will be conducted to verify performance.

Pratt & Whitney does not offer many suppliers this opportunity. When they choose a supplier to do this with, they choose a supplier they believe is going to succeed in it, mutually benefitting supplier and customer through the program and in future business.

For Turbine Support Services Inc., joining this initiative is a symbol of continued commitment to lean processes and quality.

Turbine Support Services Inc. is a leader in supply chain services, delivering supply chain excellence through innovation, turn key solutions, and customer focus.
