BASF was named a GM Supplier of the Year by General Motors during a virtual ceremony honouring the recipients of the company’s 28th annual Supplier of the Year awards on Wednesday, June 24, 2020.
This is the 15th time BASF has received the award. The company was also honoured with the Overdrive Award for Sustainable Construction and Workspaces, performance beyond BASF’s traditional work for GM and the automotive assembly industry.
During the event, GM recognised 116 of its best suppliers, less than 1% of their supply base, from 15 countries that have consistently exceeded GM’s expectations, created outstanding value, or introduced innovations to the company.
“We are humbled and honoured to be recognised by our great partner, General Motors, for the 15th time,” said Sean McKeon, BASF Vice President and Key Account Manager for GM.
“This is not a one-day achievement. It took the collective effort of thousands of BASF employees and our strong partnership with General Motors over many years.”
“Our suppliers play a key role in delivering the products, services and experiences our customers deserve – and these award-winning suppliers went above and beyond our expectations,” said Shilpan Amin, GM Vice President, Global Purchasing and Supply Chain.
BASF was also awarded with the coveted Overdrive Award, not for automotive products, but for its Sustainable Construction technology and applications.
