Lear Corporation, global automotive technology leader in Seating and E-Systems, announced it was recognized with a GM Supplier of the Year award during General Motors’ 32nd annual Supplier of the Year ceremony. The award recognizes global suppliers that exceed GM’s expectations, and provide cutting-edge innovation and world-class quality.
In 2023, Lear said it supported multiple GM product launches, invested in two new facilities, and collaborated on the development of several new product launches scheduled to begin production in 2024.
“We’re honored to partner with these top suppliers who have made notable contributions to our transformation. Together, we’re pushing boundaries, pioneering new technologies and redefining what’s possible,” said Jeff Morrison, GM vice president, global purchasing and supply chain. “Their innovation and support are critical to helping us deliver the world-class vehicles our customers have to come expect.”
GM Supplier of the Year Award recipients are selected by a global, cross-functional team based on the suppliers’ performance in business and cultural criteria, including quality, launch, supply chain, total enterprise cost, innovation and engineering, communication and transparency, and safety.
