AMAG Austria Metall AG has received the "Accredited Supplier" award from Airbus. This is the highest of four quality awards that the European aircraft manufacturer bestows on its suppliers. This also makes AMAG currently the only supplier of rolled products that has been awarded at this highest level. AMAG had already received this award twice in succession, most recently in 2020.
The award is given for outstanding delivery reliability and excellent product quality and is part of the Supply Chain & Quality Improvement (SQIP) program. Airbus runs this program together with selected premium suppliers in order to ensure continuous improvement throughout the entire supply chain.
"Innovation and continuous improvement comes quite naturally to us. All the more reason to be delighted about the repeated award from Airbus at the highest level, which expresses our customer orientation and our quality standards. This makes us currently the only supplier of rolled aluminum products to have received this award at the highest level, and even twice in a row. We regard this success as an incentive to expand our
contribution to the development of the strategic partnership“, says AMAG CEO Gerald Mayer.
AMAG and Airbus have enjoyed a successful partnership since 2005. In July 2016, the largest multi-year supply contract ever negotiated between AMAG and Airbus was signed. The subject matter is certified rolled products, which are used for the structure and outer skin of all Airbus aircraft families, as well as a stronger integration of AMAG into the Airbus supply chain through joint recycling projects and initiatives to increase material efficiency.
