Saginaw, Michigan: General Motors has honored Morley with the Supplier of the Year award and, for the second consecutive year, the Overdrive Award. The announcement was made as part of the GM Supplier Business Meeting held on June 22, 2021.
“All of us at Morley are extremely humbled to receive these awards. To have our associates recognized for consistently delivering extraordinary service is truly special, and inspires us to continue innovating and investing in this century-old
partnership,” said Paul Furlo, Morley’s President & CEO. “After a relationship spanning 120 years, GM has become part of our family.”
Internationally, 122 suppliers representing 16 countries received the Supplier of the Year award, and 26 companies representing eight countries earned GM’s Overdrive Award. The 2020 Supplier of the Year and Overdrive Award winners were selected
among GM’s approximate 32,000 direct and indirect suppliers worldwide by a global team of GM purchasing, engineering, quality, manufacturing and logistics leaders.
The Supplier of the Year award highlights global suppliers that distinguish themselves by exceeding GM’s requirements, in turn providing GM customers with innovative technologies and among the highest quality in the automotive industry. The
Overdrive Award is a distinction reserved for suppliers who display outstanding achievement within the Global Purchasing and Supply Chain organization’s key priorities, including sustainable value streams, total enterprise cost and profitability,
safety, launch excellence, accelerating innovation and nurturing relationships.
“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,” said Shilpan Amin, GM Vice President, Global Purchasing
and Supply Chain.
“Throughout a challenging year, our suppliers have showed resilience and dedication in working toward our shared goal of long-term sustainability for our planet and the communities we serve, while meeting our present needs,” Amin said. “We
are pleased with what we’ve accomplished together in the past year and we are excited by the opportunity that lies ahead.”
