The annual awards highlight GM’s top 2020 calendar year suppliers from 16 countries who have exceeded GM’s requirements and provide GM customers with innovative technologies that are among the highest quality in the automotive industry. “We’re grateful to be recognized again by GM as a Supplier of the Year and for the continued partnership with them as a customer. For over 70 years, our world-class bearing and seal technologies have been a critical component for many GM vehicle programs, and more recently, we are proud to also be supplying GM with bearings and seals for the next generation of all electric vehicles. In addition, SKF stepped up to the GM challenge to supply bearings used in building ventilators as part of the global response to the COVID-19 pandemic,” said Greg Zimmerman, President, SKF Automotive North America. “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 shown 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.” The Supplier of the Year award winners were chosen by a&nbsp;global team of GM purchasing, engineering, quality, manufacturing, and logistics executives.
