Nominated as a result of Samsung’s stringent quality audit and one of two European suppliers to be awarded the Samsung-Q Mark this year, we are proud to ranked as one of Samsung Heavy Industries’ highest-quality suppliers.
The Samsung-Q Mark is awarded based on Samsung’s Q Mark quality evaluation system. Candidates for the Samsung-Q Mark 2008 were selected based on their accomplishments during 2007 in design, manufacturing, installation on board, and claims during installation.
In the first round of selection, 218 vendors were picked out for evaluation. Of these 218 vendors, 18 excellent suppliers were selected. 14 were domestic Korean suppliers, 2 from Japan and 2 from Europe.
“We are extremely proud to be one of two European suppliers to be awarded the Samsung-Q Mark", says Mr. Odd-Ståle Ness, Managing Director of TMC. “We believe this confirms that our continuous work with product development and documentation is greatly appreciated by our customers."
“Samsung Heavy Industries is the second largest shipbuilder in the world. Their quality systems are really stringent, and being able to meet these requirements and be awarded the quality award means that we are succeeding in providing high-quality products and services to our customers," Mr. Ness continues.
Samsung have installed TMC marine screw compressors onboard for various applications onboard a number of their newbuildings.
