SANTA ANA, CA - October 18, 2010 - ITT Interconnect Solutions, a leading
global manufacturer and supplier of connectors, interconnects, and cable
assemblies, has received a Class-A Enterprise Certification from the Chinese
Customs and Chinese Inspection and Quarantine Bureau for its facility in
Shenzhen, China. The Class-A Enterprise Certification eases government
restrictions and procedures, thereby improving on-time delivery and
providing shorter product lead times for customers worldwide. In order to
achieve the certification, a company must exhibit a commitment to quality
and retain an exemplary import/export customs compliance track record for a
minimum of three years.
"Only 132 of the estimated 12,000 companies in the Baoan district of
Shenzhen have been awarded Class-A Enterprise certification this year.
Several ISO certifications are necessary for a Class-A Enterprise rating and
it has taken years of dedicated efforts by our Interconnect Solutions
employees in Shenzhen to earn," said Bill Taylor, president of ITT ICS. "It
will significantly support ITT ICS's customer-centric culture initiative
worldwide, and I would like to thank all our employees in Shenzhen for their
hard work and congratulate them on this outstanding achievement."
President of ITT China and India, Mike Kuchenbrod, adds: "We are delighted
to have received official recognition as a business for the highest
standards of compliance with Chinese Customs laws and regulations. ITT's
businesses around the globe always strive to achieve the best levels of
customer service and this Class-A Enterprise Certification will benefit our
customer base worldwide. I congratulate all our employees at Shenzhen on
behalf of the Board of Directors."
Manufacturing PC cards and a range of connectors ideal for telecom, mobile,
industrial, medical, automotive and transportation applications, the ITT ICS
factory in Shenzhen was established as a joint venture in 1998, became fully
owned by ITT in 2001, and now employs more than 800 people. This extensive
facility is 26,000+ square meters and includes an engineering division, new
product development specialists, high-volume automated assembly lines,
