Faurecia Emissions Control Technologies (FECT), the world's leading manufacturer in the field, has bagged the General Motors' 2015 supplier of the year award.

The designation recognises FECT's overall leadership and performance across all regions, in particular in North America and Europe.

FECT earned the highest-level ranking for supplier performance based on a series of metrics applied by GM. The rankings evaluate business performance and cultural priorities. FECT scored greater than 4 out of 5 on both scales. Business performance incorporates quality, launch, material cost, and supply chain. A GM internal survey of departments, which work closely together with suppliers, evaluates cultural priorities and focuses on total enterprise cost, transparency, communication/responsiveness and innovation/engineering, according to a press release.

FECT North American operations president Dave DeGraaf said, “We are grateful to General Motors for recognising the inventive minds, hard work and lean processes that distinguish our worldwide Faurecia Emissions Control Technologies workforce. We are proud to be a supplier for General Motors, and I know everyone within FECT greatly appreciates this recognition and our highly valued relationship with GM.”

Steve Kiefer, GM vice president, global purchasing and supply chain said, “We are focused on building positive supplier relationships, bringing new, customer-centric innovations to GM, and being the OEM of choice among suppliers. The companies we recognise tonight not only have brought innovation, they delivered it with the quality our customers deserve.” (GK)
