Samtec has been ranked #1 in the 2023 Bishop and Associates European Customer Survey of the Electronic Connector Industry, reports ITREALMS.
Ron Bishop, President and Founder of Bishop & Associates, said that “Winning the Bishop and Associates European Customer Service Survey is a fantastic achievement. To win this survey again, in such a convoluted supply chain environment during the Covid chaos, reflects Samtec’s commitment to their Sudden Service principles.”
He also disclosed that Sudden Service is Samtec’s unmatched customer support through initial design, purchase, delivery, and post-sale technical support.
This, he said, includes free product samples, access to extensive technical online resources (including models, data sheets, white papers, and test reports), individualized design assistance, as well as innovative online tools to help streamline the design process.
ITREALMS recalls that Bishop & Associates surveyed electronic equipment manufacturers (OEMs), cable assembly manufacturers, contract manufacturers (CEMs), and distributors across Europe to determine how the connector industry, and selected connector manufacturers, are performing. Twenty-eight (28) connector manufacturers were named in the survey, including Phoenix Contact, Amphenol, Molex, TE Connectivity, WAGO, ept, HARTING, Harwin, Rosenberger, and Hirose.
Respondents, ITREALMS gathered, represented a variety of market sectors, such as industrial, automotive, electric vehicle, military/government, telecom/datacom, medical, Computer/Peripheral, Test/Measurement/Instrumentation, Consumer Electronics, transportation, civil aviation, and energy. Respondents identified their job function as engineering (58%), purchasing (25%), or other (17%).
In addition, ITREALMS gathered that Samtec was ranked as the #1 connector supplier overall in Europe.
