We are once again honored to receive this award, and deeply appreciative of the confidence and trust that our customers place in our company.

The overall 10 BEST Awards are presented annually by VLSI Research Inc to chip making equipment suppliers that demonstrate exemplary customer satisfaction in one of two overall categories: Large Suppliers of Chip Making Equipment, and Focused Suppliers of Chip Making Equipment.

In determining the 2005 10 BEST winners, VLSI Research Inc distributed more than 46,000 questionnaires in six languages to semiconductor companies worldwide. The double-blind survey reaches about two-thirds of the total decision-making managers and engineers within the semiconductor industry. Survey respondents are asked to rate suppliers in 13 categories on a 10-point scale. These 13 categories include seven measures of equipment performance and six measures of customer service. Cost of ownership, uptime, software, build quality, usable throughput, quality-of-results, and product performance are the equipment performance measures. Customer service measures include process support, field engineering support, spare support, support-after-sales, technical leadership, and the supplier`s overall commitment to supporting its customers` needs.
