PACCAR annually recognizes its top-performing suppliers in its Supplier Performance Management (SPM) program. The SPM program evaluates a supplier’s performance in the areas of product development, operations support and business alignment with PACCAR objectives.
Through the SPM program, suppliers and PACCAR cross-functional teams collaborate to identify performance enhancements and to develop product innovations. PACCAR has given 89 supplier awards since the launch of the SPM program in 2014.
“We are excited about our suppliers’ performance achieved since we launched the SPM program three years ago,” said Bill Jackson, PACCAR vice president. “We appreciate the value created for customers, dealers and PACCAR from continuous improvement initiatives under the program. PACCAR recognizes and honors top suppliers that reached the SPM Master, Leader and Achiever status, the top quartile of SPM performance.”
