COLUMBIA, Md., July 2, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- GP Strategies
Corporation was named a GM Supplier of the Year by General Motors
during a virtual ceremony honoring the recipients of the company's
28th annual Supplier of the Year awards on
Wednesday, June 24, 2020.
During the event, GM recognized 116 of its best suppliers from
15 countries that have consistently exceeded GM's expectations,
created outstanding value or introduced innovations to the company.
The awards ceremony was originally scheduled as a live-event to be
held in March but was postponed due to the impact of the COVID-19
pandemic. The recognition is for supplier performance in the 2019
calendar year.
This is the 3rd time GP Strategies has received the
award.
"Our suppliers play a key role in delivering the products,
services and experiences our customers deserve – and these
award-winning suppliers went above and beyond our expectations,"
said Shilpan Amin, GM vice
president, Global Purchasing and Supply Chain.
"We also believe it's important at this point in time to thank
our entire supply base for their efforts the last few months to
mitigate the impacts of COVID-19," added Amin. "Not only have we
been able to safely restart our manufacturing operations, our
suppliers played a key role in assisting our initiatives to
increase the supply of ventilators and personal protection
equipment (PPE) for frontline health care workers to help save
lives and keep communities safe."
The Supplier of the Year award winners were chosen by a global
team of GM purchasing, engineering, quality, manufacturing and
logistics executives. Winners were selected based on performance
criteria in Product Purchasing, Global Purchasing and Manufacturing
Services, Customer Care and Aftersales, and Logistics.
"Disruption has become a way of life in the automotive industry,
from technologies such as autonomous vehicles to rapidly evolving
business processes. We take great pride in our partnership
with GM and the work we do to support their transformation through
our focus on innovative and evidence-based solutions to increase
their dealer network performance," said Martha Manting, Senior Vice President, GP
Strategies. "We are truly honored to be recognized as GM's
Supplier of the Year once again."
