Atlantic Fasteners earns Millitech quality award

Millitech, Inc. has awarded Atlantic Fasteners the 2008 Certificate of Appreciation in recognition of its continuing commitment, dedication and pursuit of service excellence.

“Atlantic Fasteners surpassed our award requirements,” said Richard Shepard, supply chain and contracts manager at Millitech who presented the award Nov. 5 to John Kraus, vice president of sales at Atlantic Fasteners.

He noted that Atlantic’s average rating was 97 percent for quality, on-time delivery and accurate documentation for seven of the last eight quarters. Only suppliers with an average rating above 95 percent for at least three of the last eight quarters are eligible for the award.

Millitech, located in both Northampton and South Deerfield, MA, provides millimeter-wave technology and manufacturing expertise to the military and aerospace markets.

“We are very pleased to receive this award," said Linda Smith, customer service representative for Atlantic’s commercial fastener division. "Our success is the result of our commercial and military-aerospace teams’ strong partnership with Millitech.”
