Everett, WA (February 1, 2013) ― Aviation Technical Services (ATS) announced today that it has received a 2012 Boeing Performance Excellence Award for work performed by its Component Services business unit.

This year, Boeing recognized 594 suppliers who achieved either a Gold or Silver level Boeing Performance Excellence Award.
