"Our certification under the SCP Support Standard in EMEA is a great example of Wind River's commitment and ongoing effort to adopt industry best practices and deliver world-class support to our customers worldwide," says Vincent Bourg, Director of Customer Support for Wind River in EMEA. "This accomplishment is shared by an elite group of companies that does not include any of our peer companies in the Device Software Optimisation space. Support is a key differentiating factor for supporting mission critical projects and often one of customers' primary criteria for selecting a commercial Linux solution." The Service Capability & Performance (SCP) Standards are designed to improve the quality and effectiveness of support, field service and professional service and eservice operations. A consortium of leading technology companies, along with Service Strategies Corporation created the internationally recognized standards, which define best practices, quantify performance levels, and establish a foundation to continuously improve business processes. Achieving certification under the standards requires comprehensive audits and annual recertification to confirm that companies continue to meet the requirements defined by the standards program. "By passing the rigorous requirements necessary to achieve SCP Certification, Wind River has made it clear they are committed to delivering world-class support to their customers," said Gordy Stauffer, SCP Auditor. "During the SCP audit, Wind River demonstrated a clear commitment to customer satisfaction and continuous improvement." Wind River joins the ranks of other leading technology companies that have achieved the prestigious and sought-after SCP Certification, including EMC Corporation, Lockheed Martin Incorporated, GE Healthcare, McKesson Corporation, Rockwell Automation and Nokia–among others. Currently, more than 200 technology service and support organizations around the world have adopted SCP Standards to improve their businesses. About Service Strategies Corporation
