Top Schaeff

Awards abound

On April 8, 2025, General Motors presented Schaeffler with a 2024 Supplier of the Year and Overdrive Award at GM’s 33rd annual Supplier of the Year event in Phoenix, Arizona. Schaeffler is one of only four suppliers to receive both awards this year.

“For more than four decades, General Motors has been a vital partner to Schaeffler. Over this time, we have had many opportunities to collaborate on key vehicle launches and programs. While we greatly appreciate GM’s continuing trust in our team, in particular with regard to the challenging times we are facing, this year we are especially honored to receive a Supplier of the Year Award and the Overdrive Award in recognition of our company’s sustainability initiatives,” said Klaus Rosenfeld, Chief Executive Officer of Schaeffler AG.

“Receiving these prestigious awards reflects our commitment to being an essential partner for General Motors. We are incredibly proud to achieve this level of recognition, and we look forward to supporting GM’s continued growth and success,” added Jon Jameson, senior vice president and GM global key account manager.

GM’s Supplier of the Year awards recognizes global suppliers for their execution across key categories like safety, innovation and resilience. A global cross-functional team makes award selections based not only on an organization’s performance across 2024, but also their alignment to GM’s core values and ambitious goals.

Overdrive awardees are among a select few suppliers who "consistently exceed expectations and demonstrate ingenuity and resilience," according to GM.

“For more than 30 years, General Motors has recognized the company’s top global suppliers at our annual event, spotlighting their innovation and resiliency through even the most challenging circumstances,” said Jeff Morrison, global chief procurement officer at GM. “Together, we’re helping bring advanced technology and the industry’s broadest portfolio of vehicles to market for GM customers.”

This year, 92 suppliers across 12 countries made GM’s 2024 Supplier of the Year list. For more information, visit news.gm.com.
