Oberkirch, July 28, 2016 - The Mexican subsidiary of Progress-Werk
Oberkirch AG was recognized by Bosch for the subsidiary's outstanding
performance and presented with the Bosch North America Supplier Award
2014/2015 in the category "Notable Supplier." At the award ceremony held
under the motto "Power of Partnership - Connected Intelligence," a total of
11 suppliers were honored for their superior performance in the areas of
quality, price, reliability, technology and continued evolution.
PWO has been supplying Bosch - a longstanding customer - with highly
sophisticated metal components, which include deep-drawn electric motor
housings, from its production location in Mexico since 2014. Group-wide,
PWO produces 120 million units of these components annually for a variety
of vehicle applications.
"Bosch and PWO are bonded by a partnership that has lasted decades, which
is why we are especially pleased to be recognized as one of their best
suppliers, also on an international comparison. We would like to extend a
special thanks to our employees, who over the past few years have taken
this location forward with their strong dedication and service," said Dr.
Volker Simon, Speaker of the Management Board.
Johannes Obrecht, the Management Board member responsible for Production
and Materials is also proud to receive this award: "The production of
electric motor housings represented not only a new product for our location
in Mexico but also a higher level of product complexity. We are pleased
that our efforts have been recognized with such an award such a short time
after starting production for this order."
