Telcobuy Honored by SBC Communications
St. Louis, Missouri – November 8, 2004 – Commitment to excellence earned Telcobuy recognition earlier this year as an outstanding supplier to SBC Communications Inc. (NYSE: SBC), one of the world's leading data, voice and Internet services providers.
"SBC is proud of its longstanding tradition of Going Beyond the Call for its customers," said Maureen Merkle, President, SBC Procurement. "We succeed at that because strategic supply chain partners like Telcobuy consistently go above and beyond in meeting our needs."
Telcobuy was one of a select group of suppliers honored in May for their work in helping SBC deliver outstanding service to its customers during the prior year. Telcobuy was recognized for its contributions in the Customer Service Category.
Bob Wells, Director of Program Management/Corporate Diversity Initiatives for Telcobuy noted: "Similar to SBC's slogan, one of Telcobuy's oldest internal dictums has been "Above and Beyond" indicating our most important goal of not only meeting our customers' and partners' expectations but exceeding them. We are very proud of our long standing relationship with SBC and are extremely pleased to be recognized by one of our best customers in this crucial arena of customer service."
As part of the annual recognition program, SBC took out a half-page advertisement in the April 29th issue of the Wall Street Journal to announce its supplier awards.
