SOUTHFIELD, MI — BASF has been named a preferred global supplier to Ford Motor Co., joining a select list of 36 suppliers in Ford’s “Aligned Business Framework.”
The Aligned Business Framework is a crucial element in Ford’s global program to reduce the number of suppliers the company uses, and to build more collaborative relationships with those suppliers. Globally, Ford has more than 2,000 production suppliers and spends around $70 billion dollars annually on production parts.
In May 2006, BASF Coatings received Ford’s “World Excellence Award” for exemplary performance as a supplier of automotive coatings to Ford’s operations in North America and Europe.
