General Motors Recognizes MacLean-Fogg Component Solutions as a 2015 Supplier of the Year Winner
Mundelein, Illinois, March 11, 2016 — MacLean-Fogg Component Solutions was named a GM Supplier of the Year by General Motors during its 24th annual Supplier of the Year awards ceremony held Thursday, March 10 at Cobo Center in Detroit, Michigan. General Motors recognized 110 of its best suppliers from 17 countries that have consistently exceeded GM’s expectations, created outstanding value, or brought new innovations to the company. The announcement represented the most suppliers General Motors has recognized since debuting the Supplier of the Year event in 1992. This is the first time in MacLean-Fogg Component Solutions’ history we have received this award.
“We are focused on building positive supplier relationships, bringing new, customer-centric innovations to GM, and being the OEM of choice among suppliers,” said Steve Kiefer, GM Vice President, Global Purchasing and Supply Chain. “The companies we recognize not only have brought innovation, they delivered it with the quality our customers deserve.”
GM’s 2015 supplier recognition represents a nearly 40 percent increase in the number of suppliers honored compared to 79 recipients in 2014. More than half of the suppliers are repeat winners from 2014. Winning suppliers were chosen by a global team of GM purchasing, engineering, quality, manufacturing, and logistics executives and selected based on performance criteria in Product Purchasing, Indirect Purchasing, Customer Care and Aftersales, and Logistics.
Duncan MacLean, President of MacLean-Fogg, stated, “We are honored to receive this recognition from such a strong company as General Motors. It is a testament to the hard work of many MacLean-Fogg employees working with their counterparts at General Motors that have enabled MacLean-Fogg to earn this recognition. Receiving this award is confirmation that our focus on LEAN manufacturing, quality and innovation is being valued by General Motors. We look forward to continuing our relationship with General Motors as they continue to value their supplier partnerships.”
