Control & Logistics.  "It is an honor to have them working with us. Their
contributions to General Motors' overall success are immeasurable.  We look

logistics selects award winners based on suppliers' quality, service,
technology, and price performance.

recognition. GM officials said that less than one percent of GM's total supply
base was recognized.
