Kodak Names OHL as Certified Supplier for Kodak’s Online Store: Global third party logistics company first to be certified

Brentwood, Tenn. (September 1, 2010) — Global supply chain management company, OHL was recently named as a Certified Supplier for Eastman Kodak Company for 2010. OHL operates Kodak’s online store order fulfillment operations and is the first third-party logistics supplier to be certified by Kodak.

Kodak’s certification criteria consists of five elements: Quality Management System; Quality of Product/Service; On time Delivery Performance; Lead Time Expectations, and Year on Year Productivity. A plaque, which reads in part, “in appreciation for your hard work and dedication during the past 12 months, we proudly present to you our Certified Supplier Plaque 2010,” was presented to OHL’s operations team at a recent Kodak/OHL quarterly business review meeting held in Rochester, NY.

“We were very impressed with OHL as a supplier,” commented Peter Bartell, Supplier Quality Manager at Kodak. “Typically, the certification process takes approximately six months to complete. After we do a preliminary assessment and identify gaps, then the supplier addresses the issues and we re-evaluate. OHL was already meeting or exceeding all of our criteria, so the process was completed in three months instead of six.”

“I am very proud of the OHL team in earning certification from a leading global innovator such as Kodak,” said Randall Coleman, Senior Vice President for OHL’s Contract Logistics business unit. “Achieving the certified supplier distinction underscores OHL’s commitment to service excellence and customer relationships.”
