Portescap has been recognised as a GM Overdrive Award winner in General Motors’ 29th annual Supplier of the Year awards. First presented in 2012, GM’s Overdrive Award is a distinction reserved for suppliers who display outstanding achievement within GM’s global purchasing and supply chain organisation’s key focus areas, including sustainable value streams, total enterprise cost and profitability, safety, launch excellence, accelerating innovation and nurturing relationships.
“It is a great honour to be recognised by General Motors for our focus on performance-critical motion applications that save, improve and enhance lives,” says Sanjay Kachroo, senior director of operations. “This award is further affirmation of Portescap’s passion for innovation and commitment to manufacturing excellence.”
Shilpan Amin, GM vice president for global purchasing and supply chain, said: “As GM works to achieve a future with zero crashes, zero emissions and zero congestion, we are proud to have innovative and dedicated suppliers around the world as partners in this mission. We are pleased with what we’ve accomplished together in the past year and we are excited by the opportunity that lies ahead.”
The Supplier of the Year and Overdrive Award winners were selected by a global team of GM purchasing, engineering, quality, manufacturing and logistics leaders. Winners were chosen based on performance criteria in product purchasing, global purchasing and manufacturing services, customer care and aftersales, and logistics.
