The company receives this award for its demonstrated skill in enhancing value for its customers, outscoring its competitors on several factors, including: unique value proposition, innovative service packages, customer feedback, and value generation through a unique manufacturing strategy. Teradyne's customer satisfaction strategy is built on three basic elements of value creation -- reliability, technology, and convenience.
“On-going investments in their PCB technology and fabrication capabilities combined with Teradyne's history of innovation and experience in backplane interconnect provides Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) a one-stop source for high-performance solutions.”
"Teradyne's High Performance Circuits facility is the first factory to be certified to MIL-PRF-31032 for the military market and has been manufacturing printed circuit boards for more than 25 years," observes Frost & Sullivan research analyst Bhargava Attada. "On-going investments in their PCB technology and fabrication capabilities combined with Teradyne's history of innovation and experience in backplane interconnect provides Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) a one-stop source for high-performance solutions."
Teradyne uses a unique manufacturing strategy and global sourcing to enable the company to compete successfully with low-cost manufacturers in Asia and stay in close proximity to its customers. For example, while most board manufacturers build three to four circuits on a single panel, Teradyne's large format capabilities allow for building 10 to 12 boards per panel, significantly reducing the variable cost of the PCB. In addition, the company has the technical expertise to handle fluctuations in its customers' demand. This service enables the customer to form risk-proof supply chain strategies and minimizes production fluctuations.
Teradyne offers customers full application-engineering support including material selection and procurement. Its wide-ranging portfolio of services also includes layout and design, prototyping, logistics, and distribution, providing clients with a bundled value proposition that promotes annual growth rates above the industry average. The company manufactures in Nashua, N.H. and more information can be found on their Web site at http://www.teradyne.com/hpc.
