PITTSBURGH, PENNSYLVANIA– December 10, 2014 – Black Box Corporation (NASDAQ: BBOX), a leading technology solutions provider, announced today that its North American operations received ISO (International Organization for Standardization) 9001:2008 certification. This marks the 21st time the company has achieved this certification for meeting rigorous quality management system standards.

“Quality management is critical to our clients’ success,” commented Mike McAndrew, President and Chief Executive Officer. “CIOs want a partner that understands the importance of quality process and has invested in standardizing quality in their daily operating activity. This certification demonstrates that Black Box is the reliable partner CIOs need to reach their business objectives.”

To receive ISO 9001:2008 Quality Management System certification, Black Box demonstrated compliance with a number of quality management principles including a strong client focus, the motivation and commitment of top management, process approach and continual improvement.
