FACC Honored by Embraer as a 2010 Supplier of the Year

Bereits zum zweiten Mal in Folge wurde die FACC AG von Embraer mit dem „Supplier of the Year Award" ausgezeichnet.

With this award the Brazilian aircraft manufacturer honors the excellent performance of FACC in quality, flexibility, delivery reliability, customer support and development in the category "Interior". The award was given Mid November during the Embraer Supplier Conference in São José dos Campos/, Brazil.

"We all at FACC are very proud of having been chosen once again as one of Embraer's Suppliers of the Year for 2010. We achieved this prestigious award as a result of our innovative technology and high production quality that was accomplished through a major commitment from everyone at the Interior's division of FACC," commented Walter Stephan, Chief Executive Officer of FACC. The efforts undertaken by FACC have significantly contributed to an on-time installation of the Phenom 300 interior and a successful production ramp up from 1 to 30 aircraft within one year. Stephan took the occasion to thank both Embraer for their confidence in FACC and the FACC team for their hard work to accomplish the Supplier of the Year award.

FACC has been a supplier of Embraer since 2006. Initial orders included various interior components for the executive jets Phenom 100, Phenom 300 and Lineage 1000. In 2008, Embraer awarded FACC the contract for the development and manufacture of the complete passenger cabin of the executive jet models Legacy 450 and Legacy 500.

The Supplier of the Year is Embraer's recognition of the progress of its best suppliers, in terms of improved quality and efficiency of the products and services as well as flexibility, delivery reliability, customer support and innovation.
