2010….Federal-Mogul Corporation (NASDAQ:FDML) has received the prestigious 2009 Supplier of the Year Award from General Motors, in recognition of its performance in engine piston products. Federal-Mogul supplies aluminum pistons, rings and connecting rods to General Motors for both passenger cars and light trucks. This is the third consecutive year Federal-Mogul has received the GM award.
Federal-Mogul President and Chief Executive Officer José Maria Alapont accepted the award from Bob Socia, GM group vice president, Global Purchasing and Supply Chain, during a presentation held March 11 at the GM Design Dome in Warren, Michigan.
“We’re very honored to receive this award, as it demonstrates our continued focus on meeting and exceeding high performance standards for General Motors,” Alapont said. “We remain committed to providing world-class, innovative products and services for GM and value our strategic development and supply partnership with the company.”
The award recognizes the significant contributions of GM's suppliers in 2009 as part of the company's global product and performance achievements.
