GM Names UGS Supplier of the Year for 2nd Consecutive Year
 PLANO,
Texas and DETROIT, Michigan, April 3, 2007 - UGS Corp., a leading global
provider of product lifecycle management (PLM) software and services, today
announced that General Motors selected UGS as a 2006 Supplier of the Year.
This is the second consecutive year that UGS has won the award for its
overall business performance in enabling GM to transform its process of
innovation by significantly reducing up-front vehicle development time. The
15th annual award – themed the “Best of the Best” -- was given during
ceremonies Saturday, March 31 at the JW Marriott Orlando Grande Lakes in
Orlando, Fla.
“We are proud to honor UGS as one of the ‘Best of the Best’ GM suppliers
in 2006,” said Bo Andersson, GM group vice president, Global Purchasing and
Supply Chain. “UGS achieved the award based on outstanding performance in
2006. We appreciate their energy, hard work and dedication to the success of
GM.”
UGS is among an elite group of suppliers selected by GM that drive to be
world class and exceed GM’s expectations in quality, service, technology and
price, and the only IT supplier to be honored. UGS is recognized for its
Teamcenter software, UGS’ digital lifecycle management solution and the
world’s most widely-used PLM portfolio; NX software, UGS’ comprehensive
digital product development solution; and Tecnomatix software, UGS’ digital
manufacturing portfolio.
“To receive the GM 2006 Supplier of the Year Award is truly an honor and
to win the award for the second consecutive year is a testament to UGS’
commitment to our customers,” said Tony Affuso, chairman, CEO and president
of UGS. “We are proud of our long-standing relationship with GM, which
supports the world’s largest global product development implementation, and
we strive for continuous product and process innovation to support GM.”
The GM Supplier of the Year award began as a global program in 1992.
Winners are selected by a global team of executives from purchasing,
engineering, manufacturing and logistics who base their decisions on
supplier performance in quality, service, technology and price. This year,
General Motors honored 89 suppliers for their outstanding performance
throughout 2006.
